Your DIRECTV Plus DVR can record up to two programs at once, or it can record one program while you watch another. If you exceed these limits (for example, if you try to record three programs at 8 p.m. on Thursday), you will be notified there is a conflict. You will have to decide which program you want to cancel.  If the overlap is just a couple of minutes (for example, some networks occasionally start programs at 8:59 instead of 9:00 p.m.), try scheduling the recording manually (go to the Scheduler and select Manual) and change the start and end times appropriately. 45
