Manual recording with streaming service

Is a manual recording possible with the streaming service? I want to record just the 5 o'clock local news program daily and not all the other ones on the same channel. Thanks!

Hey @davecuz! Our Cloud DVR allows recording specific shows from the program guide or search. While manual recording for time blocks without capturing other programs on the same channel isn't available, we’ve noted your request and will pass it along to our team for consideration in future updates. For now, you can manage your recordings via the DIRECTV app or at directv.com by navigating to "My Library" to view or delete unwanted recordings. Rizza, DIRECTV Community Team

If you have the DIRECTV stream remote, you just hit the record button on the program once. If you’re using another device go to the guide and bring up the info and hit Record.
