I wanted to record a program, but I got an error message saying it confl icted with another scheduled record. What
do I do?
Your DIRECTV Plus DVR can record up to two programs at once, or it can record one program while you watch another. If you exceed
these limits (for example, if you try to record three programs at 8 p.m. on ursday), you will be noti ed there is a con ict. You will have
to decide which program you want to cancel.
If the overlap is just a couple of minutes (for example, some networks occasionally start programs at 8:59 instead of 9:00 p.m.), try
scheduling the recording manually (go to the Scheduler and select Manual) and change the start and end times appropriately.
