No, you do not lose all your recordings. Only the older recordings will be deleted if your new DVR Hours amount cannot accommodate all of your current recordings.

For example: If you had a 200 DVR hours subscription with 100 hours of recordings in the cloud, when you downgrade to a 50 DVR Hours subscription, you will lose only the oldest 50 hours of recordings.

You may lose any recordings that were associated with the higher package you downgraded from. The only recordings that will remain after you downgrade are the recordings of the channels you currently subscribe to.

HomeStream TV includes 1 Stream to 1 device and 50 hours of Cloud DVR storage. Additional increments of 25 Cloud DVR hours are available at only $4 per month. Recordings on Cloud DVR will be automatically deleted after 1 year.

You can schedule as many recordings as you would like at one time. The only restriction is dependent on the amount of DVR hours you have available.
