Just wondering if I have a bad box, or if others experience issues with the dvr?
Like occasionally locking up and going to a black screen when rewinding live tv. Or audio still playing when rewinding recorded programs.
Unplugging to reboot restores normal function and it does not do it all the time, just curious if it's just my box?
 
I had my $100 Orby DVR about a week. It had similar problems. Had to unplug it once to restore function. Then it stopped being able to "Pause Live TV" I should have returned it but I just threw it away. And Orby doesn't give refunds. Complete waste of money. I suggest you return it if possible.
 
I have never had any problems with the DVR. I am not sure if I have ever paused or tried to rewind live TV but I record almost all of my favorite shows to watch at another time. My only complaint is that they have never fixed the bug that does not allow adding extra time at the end of a show. It will record early but not later no matter what method is used.
