If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it: Sometimes when I'm recording a show or a movie, I get a black screen for about the first 15-20 seconds. When I use the 30-second skip button, this moves me past the black screen, but it's somewhat annoying. I recorded "Spider-Man 3" on Starz recently, and I missed the first ten seconds of the movie (only the opening music, but still annoying to me). Is there a way to fix this, or does anyone else have this problem?
 
I saw in some other threads there have been bugs in the new software updates; maybe it will be fixed as soon as possible

I've actually been experiencing it for about a year, so I don't think it's tied to the new software rollout. It's good to see that others are enduring it as well, though.
