I have a DVR 510 that is about 6 weeks old. It worked fine for the first 3 weeks but since then I've been getting an increasing frequency of problems, most frequent problem is it freezes and has to be powered off by the button on the console (doesn't respond to the remote).
Sometimes it fails to record an event. The freezes usually happen when you press the PVR button but sometimes just happen while watching a recorded event. When it freezes it will sometimes shut itself off then come back on and go through the sequence of acquiring satellites and after that sometimes will download the program guide before coming back on. It has gotten more frequent and now freezes about once an hour. At first it would miss a timer about 10% of of the time but now misses timers about 25% of the time. Sometimes while in live mode and not recording, it will not respond to the pause or reverse buttons, and then will freeze up next time you press PVR. When it misses a timer if you try to do on-demand recording it will say it has a timer conflict but still will not record if you delete the conflicting timer (the conflicting timer being the one it was supposed to be recording in the first place).
Anyone else have this experience?
