Your DIRECTV

®

 HD DVR makes finding and recording programs easy—so easy that you 

may find more programs you enjoy than you ever expected! Your HD DVR can help with 
this too, by giving you simple ways to manage your recordings and make sure you watch 
what you want, when you want to watch it.

There are three types of recordings that repeat automatically:

• Season Pass. Records every episode of a series that airs on a certain channel—even if 

the day or time slot changes! It is totally automatic and easy to set up. Just select a 
program (from the DIRECTV Advanced Program Guide

TM

, or from search results) and 

choose “Get a Season Pass.” You can even set a Season Pass to record first-run 
programs only (no repeats!), and to keep as many, or as few, episodes as you want.

• Manual Repeating Recording. Records on a specific channel at a specific time, just as 

you would with a VCR. See page 61 for more information.

• Auto-recording WishList

 Records all programs a WishList search finds. See page 67.

These three types of recordings also have the following in common:

• No duplicates within 28 days. If you watch or delete a particular episode or showing, it 

will not be recorded automatically again for 28 days. This prevents the Now Playing List 
from filling up with shows you probably don’t want. If you want to record duplicates, go 
to Recording Options, Show Type, and select “All (with duplicates).” You can also 
schedule a single duplicate recording for a particular program.

There is one common exception to this “28 day rule:” if a program is deleted before you 
watch it, that program may be recorded again within 28 days.
