DTV app and Streaming Devices

About a month ago the shows I am recording on my Directv device will not play on either my Roku or Firestick. Is this due to an issue on my end or is this something contractional going on between companies? The main ones that I've noticed are ABC shows. Thanks!

When can we expect a bug fix for the new UI? (July 2026 - Workaround included)

I, like many others DirecTV users, am somewhat disappointed that the newest update to the User Interface is very buggy and leads to a runaround.
