I am still having the earlier reported issue (by quite a few) of getting a small amount of picture/sound freeze/stutter/pixilation at pretty much :29 and :59 past the hour. Anyone else still having this?
 
I hope all of you also report this in the S212 bug thread above in the Stickies. This will help keep the issue front and center and help DISH get a handle on how prevalent it is.
 
I'll post it in there. Since it has been an issue well before S212, I didn't figure it was an appropriate thread to post it to anymore.

Just added my note to the sticky, as I was reading this I looked up, it was 6:29 and pixilation happened
 
I still have the problem also. I saw it on TBS last night, but did not notice it on CBS. I was hoping this was going to be fixed with S212.
 
I also noticed this since day 1 (just happened as a matter of fact.) I thought it had something to do with recordings switching on the top and bottom of the hours, however I have seen it occur even when there's nothing recording at all. Wonder what's causing it?
 
I've had this since day one, too. Didn't bother me much then, but now it's starting to get annoying.

I get it too. I always notice a short stutter at the end of shows about the time the credits start to roll. I never really noticed it at :29 but I am most likely skipping commercials at this time period.

same micro freeze here at S212 at :29 and :59.

I'm not seeing any stutter at 29/59. What I AM seeing is my mini info banner freak out for time remaining & jumping to 28365 min remaining or similar impossible time limit. Only seems to happen in the last 30 sec of a show to first 30 of the next show. Figured I just have amazing timing to hit cancel every time right when the banner is updating.

I watched carefully last night and am definitely getting the stutter/freeze at :29 also.
 
I record "Pardon the Interuption" on ESPN every afternoon. They run a 60 second countdown at the end of the show, and the pixelation and stutter happen like clockwork around the 30 second mark. I can almost predict it now. It actually skips ahead a few seconds to, maybe 3-4, so you loose a little content when it happens. Odd problem.
