Recording Control: Prevent Subscribers from
Recording a Service
Follow these instructions to customize the DVR service by disabling DVR
functionality for specific services so that subscribers cannot record them. Otherwise,
subscribers can record any service, even those on VOD and Music Channels.
When subscribers are prevented from recording a service, the following message
displays whenever a subscriber attempts to record the service:
ATTENTION: Recording feature not available on this channel
Important! You should disable the DVR functionality for any services that you do
not want subscribers to record.
