Why can't I make a series recording when I search, AND FIND a tv show?

If the show is on demand, I should be able to make a recording for when it airs new episodes again.

As it is now, I have to save my search, go back, and keep checking every week until it has a current airing, search through the (sometimes hundreds) of results to find the ONE that is on tv, not on demand, and then make the recording.

If I know I want to record new episodes of a show not currently on, is is messed up of you to make me wait until it comes on air. Chances are, I will probably miss the first one, and then I am up the creek.

Hi Ramsey,

The DVR uses the information in the guide to schedule the series recording. Since this is how the service works, the show has to be airing in the guide in order to schedule the series. You can set recordings from your mobile device or online if you find a show is airing and you are not home to schedule it. Our mobile app is Contour and/or Cox TV and you can log in to www.cox.com/mydvr. If you need any other assistance, please let me know.
