Sky Stream is a streaming service, not a recording service. You can tag content you want to stream later in a playlist.
Whether or not it will be available to stream later is down to the individual rights of the channel on which the content is streamed.

You could/should have had a SkyQ satellite system installed, like I did this January, where you can record. It's a full PVR and clearly what you required. Unfortunately there are some sales people who are lying and saying it's not available.
I do not have a sig other than this message. SkyQ.
