DirecTV, a television satellite provider, allows users who purchase a digital video recorder (DVR) to program television shows and movies from their TV. Whenever you record a show, the system generates a recording history list which includes shows which were deleted or canceled.

If you want to do this, you need to reformat the disk of your DVR. Be forewarned, if you choose this option, you will lose all of your settings and your recordings.
