Simple question: how do I use my PC to manage my DVR?
limited features available at the https://tv.xfinity.com/ site. Basically you can add any one time recording or set a new series via the search or the channel listings. You will only be able to modify a series from an episode you have recorded or find in the search function (for example reruns on the same normal channel). There is currently no DVR manager available. Note that the android devices don't have access to a DVR manager either (broken). perhaps when they fix that feature on android, since it is web based on the android app, we will have a web page to actually perform the DVR manager function again.
There you go again Rusty, spreading misinformation. The DVR manager features available at https://tv.xfinity.com/ are only for users with X1 DVRs. You cannot assume the user has an X1 DVR. That functionality has been taken away for users with legacy DVRs.
Also I highly doubt Comcast is going to develop "a web page to actually perform the DVR manager function again" for Android when they have just updated the Apple version to have an in app DVR manager. Being that the Android app is a version number behind the Apple app, and it is broken, they would most likely fix the Android app to work similar to the Apple app. But that is speculation on my part.
But please state your source that there again will be a web based DVR manager.
did you overlook the word 'perhaps'?
