Hi! I can definitely understand how frustrating that would be. It sounds like you have the Prime Time Anytime feature enabled. In order to disable this feature please select menu, settings, DVR defaults, Prime Time Anytime. Once you're on the Prime Time Anytime menu you can select do not enable to stop the recordings. I hope this helps. If you have any further questions please let me know.
