The fact that it never showed that a game was to be played on this channel should have been the first tip off something was wrong. I can't DVR it when it says "To be announced" for what's coming up on the channel!

In case this happens again, you can record on a Directv DVR when it says "To be announced," just not with the record button.
Here's how you do it on the HR20:
1. Push the List button.
2. Push the yellow button to bring up the to do list.
3. Scroll down to manual and set up a manual recording.
I recorded the game this way today because I had drill at my Air Guard unit. Of course I [censored]ed when I realized I had missed the first drive.
