Thread: Time Available Drifting / Changing DVR 625

After the most recent software update ( L540 ) the Time Available on the DVR Menue screen drifts usually downward as I switch channels and switch ( Swap button ) between the two tuners .

i.e. 4h 00m .... 3h 59m ... 3h 57m... etc.

It behaves as if the dvr is not totally erasing / ignoring the data recorded from the previous channel after the channel is changed .

A soft reset restores the Time Available to the correct value, but then the value continues to drift lower as I watch and switch channels .

Any memory discrepancy in the dvr is of concern to me since I have quite a few recordings on the dvr .

I have tried both soft resets and hard (unplug) resets .

Thank you .
