We were watching ESPN last night and the picture was very unsteady. It would skip every few seconds regardless of the channel. Tried a red button reboot and it was even worse. No audio and large gaps in the video. Unplugged the unit for 5 minutes and it shows the restart hopper screen and then goes black. Both Joeys work ok and can even play back recordings.

Anyone experience this before?

When I got home, the tv was showing the Android icon, frozen on the screen. I rebooted the Google TV box and everything was fine. Perhaps that was causing the glitches last night.
 
My Logitech Revue was causing my network to go offline at random times.

I could ping a site and then at random time the ping would start timing out then return a few minutes later. Then stop again a few minutes later. When the ping would stop I would unplug the revue unit and internet would be immediately restored. If I plugged it in again it would happen again a few minutes later. By unplugging it this problem would not happen anymore. So keeping it unplugged and the problem has not come back.

I did order one of those new Vizio google tv units.

Need more advanced recording timer options on the Hopper?
