Sorry if inappropriate. There is a TV program that I have set to record that will not work. Instead, it repeatedly appears to start, but then stops; ie, the red light comes on in Blue Wide for about 15 seconds, then goes back off for about 15 seconds, and the whole process repeats for the 1 hour duration of the set recording time. At no time does any actual recording show up under 'recorded tv', nor does anything show up under 'active recordings'. Even more mysterious: 1) the same thing happens (for the same tv show) whether I try to record on a QAM channel or an analog channel. 2) I have successfully recorded TV shows immediately before and after the troublesome show on the same channel. 3) I can watch the show live on the HTPC!!!, and use the associated 'pause, rewind' (forget what its called) recording just as if the show had been recorded. 4) the show records fine on an old RCA analog only DVR. This has been happening for three weeks now. This is too weird to even venture a guess as to the cause, and I don't even want anyone to waste time looking at logs. Just wondering if anyone has ever seen this behavior --??? The tv show in question is 'This Old House' on PBS - the U.S. Public Broadcasting System. Thanks for looking. You can laugh now, but I'm not kidding and this is not a Halloween prank. [/QUOTE]
