This is a weird one.
I've had my 622 through many software revisions and never had this problem,
including the current software which was working fine until this week.
I've got plenty of timers set-up for OTA recording, but starting this week
my 622 has been recording lower priority timers at the expense of higher priority ones.
But not only that, it *thinks* that it has recorded BOTH (which would of course be impossible.)
If I look at the history of my missing programs, the timer shows as "Done", not "Skipped".
Everything looks "normal" beforehand. It shows the high priority program as scheduled to be recorded, and it shows the lower priority one as "Skipped by priority". But when the recording actually begins, the lower priority one is the one that gets saved to the hard drive.
It's really starting to anger me.
My software version hasn't changed, and this version of the software was handling these conflicts just fine for the past few weeks.
At first I assumed it was a fluke, but it's happened every night for the past three nights now.
Thoughts?
**Edit**
So after anoter hard reboot, the symptom is now worse. My 622 has lost it's damn mind.
Last night I attempted to record Studio 60 OTA. This time it was the only timer for that time slot.
Nothing was competing with it. The recording kicked off, and all was normal... so I thought.
There was in fact a "Studio 60" in my DVR list. But when I went to watch it, the recording with that title
was an hour of the History channel! Something that was never scheduled to record!
My OTA timer chose an arbitrary satellite channel and gave it the title and description of the scheduled OTA event.
What the hell? DISH really needs to get their hardware/software act together.
