Re: Sling App can’t access DVR data
Sling and other live TV services such as YouTube TV use a "cloud DVR". Nothing is stored in your Roku. You can watch your cloud recordings from any supported device. But the issue is NOT on Roku's end.

Re: Sling App can’t access DVR data
I’m certain most are aware of that fact. But when an app works everywhere but a certain platform, it is reasonable to question the platform AND the app creator to ferret out a solution. An buggy update by the platform or the app creator could reasonably be considered the problem.

Re: Sling App can’t access DVR data
Roku does not make the Sling channel ( not apps on a Roku). The DVR is stored in the cloud on Slings servers. That means you can access your recordings from anywhere in the world using a compatible device. The issue should be reported to Sling and not a Roku community forum. No one from Sling works here or will see this thread. Your recordings can be viewed on a laptop until the channel is updated. Most problems are only temporary anyways. Usually resolved within 24--48 hours on it's own. Most DVR recordings such as a show can be viewed on demand also.

Re: Sling App can’t access DVR data
Thanks for the post.
For more information about that channel's features and functionality, you'll want to contact Sling support directly to inquire further. Many channels on Roku are developed and maintained by the channel provider themselves.
Thanks,

Re: Sling App can’t access DVR data
Are you wanting to record OTA or regular cable channels ? Also did you sign up for the DVR when you requested the subscription?

Re: Sling App can’t access DVR data
I'm trying to record cable channels and I don't have to signup for dvr service as it's free. There is only a cost if you want more hours.
There is no option to record. Tried on 5 diffrent devices with no luck. The only option is to watch channel and from iv seen the record option should be right next to it.
Thank you

Re: Sling App can’t access DVR data
@AjH23 Do you have a computer ? If so go to sling.com and on bottom right it says chat. I've had it for years and never had an issue
