I believe the DVR feature of Plex requires a Plex Pass (although Plex can still use a TV tuner and stream live TV without DVR for free).  I bought a lifetime Plex Pass several years ago when it was on sale, and I think I've made good use of it.  Plex Pass also enables some other features, such as hardware transcoding, Skip Intro, and skipping commercials (for content recorded via DVR) that may be useful to you as well.
