Watching recorded series starting with the earliest recorded

How do you watch the earliest recorded program in a series? For example I have about 100 episodes & I want to watch the first one recorded.

Hi hannan,

To watch the earliest recorded program in a series:

1. Press the Contour button on the Cox remote.
2. Highlight Saved, then press OK.
3. Highlight Recordings.
4. Highlight the show title, then press OK to view a list of episodes.
5. Use the right arrow and scroll until you get to More Episodes, then press OK.
6. Use the up and down arrows to highlight the first recorded episode.

I don't see anything new pertaining to this.  I have 47 episodes of the Olympics recorded today in a series and in order to get to the first and oldest episode I have to hit the right arrow 46 times.  Is there a shortcut for this?  The suggestion of clicking on more episodes isn't available.  Why can't I arrow left to get to the end?   Plus, most of the time after watching the oldest episode it goes back to newest one again so then I have to hit the right arrow 45 times.  Sometimes it stays on the right side and the next oldest episode is there to start but not often enough. 

Thanks for any suggestions.

With Cox TV, when you select the top episode in a list and press the up arrow, the last episode in the list is selected.  Does Contour really not have anything like that?

Edit: I replied to this same discussion 3 years ago.

Nope. With Contour the episodes are left to right. When you click on the series recording it always goes to the far left on the latest recording. It would be nice if I could hit the left arrow and skip to the far right episode but it doesn't work. If I hit the up or down arrow it just goes to a different recording altogether. 

Thanks for the reply.

Contour1 (Cox TV)

To watch the earliest recorded episode in a series:

  1. Press DVR List
  2. Select Recorded Programs (default)
  3. Scroll to desired program
  4. Press Right Arrow
  5. Press Up Arrow
  6. Press Select

I hope Cox never discontinues the Cox TV platform because it is so much easier to use than Contour2 if all you want to do is watch live TV and record and playback recorded programs.
