My Vip 722 is going ctrazy after about 8 years of solid performance. When I press pause because I need to do something for couple of min and return it skips to live tv right away. Is that a sign of hard drive failing? Should I ask for replacement?

Yes, it sounds like the hard drive is failing. And if you can get your recordings off of it to an external hard drive now would be the time.
 
Hello. We are sorry to hear that you are having technical issues. You may be experiencing a hard drive issue. Have you tried to reset the receiver by unplugging from the power outlet for 10-15 seconds? Are you getting an error message? Please send us a private message with your account or phone number and 4 digit PIN. Thanks.
