[QUOTE="mores369, post: 885021, member: 126658"] Unfortunately, in my case, recording is affected, as well as live TV. If MP doesn't detect the channel, HDHR doesn't show frequencies for that channel either. Some times it works, some times it doesn't. In a last ditch effort, I removed all the channels, essentially starting over, and tried scanning in STD ALT mode. Things have been stable for a half a week, so it's improving (I think, anyway). I also tried switching to ATSC as mm135200 suggested, and things seem to be okay. Time will tell.
