Server Version#:  
Player Version#:  
Tuner Make/Model:  
Guide/Lineup name:  
Using XMLTV?:  
Channel number/Name:

I am wondering if Plex will offer a DVR option for the “Live TV on Plex” option. I am not talking about “Live TV and DVR” that is running on my Server offering my channels running off my antenna. I have that setup and have no problems there. However, there are free channels that Plex offers that I would like to DVR, like the “GustoTV” channel, for example. Any chance of offering this feature sometime in the near future?

Thanks!

I have thought the same thing.

And, might I suggest you move the topic to the “Feature Suggestion” section instead of the “Live TV & DVR” section and possibly rename the title to something slightly more descriptive like:

- Record shows from “Live TV on Plex” - feature request

You can certainly trigger a feature suggestion. However Plex have already addressed this question in the related support article:

> [@https://support.plex.tv/articles/faq-live-tv-on-plex/](#):
>
> ### Can I schedule DVR recordings?
> 
> Sorry, no. Again, due to licensing restrictions, Live TV channels cannot be used with our DVR feature.
