      I set up a one pass to record a tv series, and Always set up as Recordings only and never as Streaming.
      Recently a series downloaded as Streaming and I can't play them unless I pay for each episode at Amazon Prime.
      Is there any reason why they taped as Streaming instead of Recordings, and is it possible to convert them in any way?

      Thank you.

      They didn t record as streaming. Nothing records to the unit for streaming content, it is just showing you that the episodes are available to stream from

        They didn't record as streaming.  Nothing records to the unit for streaming content, it is just showing you that the episodes are available to stream from Amazon - they're not actually on the box, just links to Amazon.  I'd double check the Season Pass or Wishlist for that program and make sure you don't have any option to show streaming episodes.  Also, I believe you can toggle the view in the Now Playing screen to show streaming options, even if not in the SP/WL.  So you may have done that (the 'C' button IIRC - I'm not in front of my system right now).
