I wanted to record the new show "VEEP". I did a search on one of my HR21-700s and got 12 1/2 pages of VEEP shows. Since there was a conflict on that DVR, I did a search on the other one and only got 4 pages of VEEP shows. Both DVRs are set up exactly the same, but the second one did not show several of the channels the first one did. There was no listing in the search for channel 501, however, when I looked at the guide, VEEP did show for channel 501.

Both guides were complete for about 14 days, but search is not working properly on one of them. I did two restarts within a 30 minute period so the guide would rebuild, so it will be a day or two before I can try the search again.

Anyone know why this would happen, or have any suggestions.

Nobody can explain smart search.

I would post about this in the Issues thread as hopefully it might get DirecTV to look into this issue. Also, post what happens when you try it again in a day.

So after the 2 restarts within a 30 minuite period to clear the guide and 30 hours later, the search for VEEP now shows the same output on both HR21-700s. I guess the guide became corrupt somehow on one of my DVRs. I wonder how many recordings were missed before I discovered this problem.
