OT - Did anyone else's DVR screw up? 

Post#1 » by texasholdem » Sat Feb 23, 2008 7:24 am

I set my Comcast HD DVR to record tonight's game vs New Orleans
and it suddenly went from the 2nd quarter to the postgame interview
with TMac. Really frustrating since I didn't know the outcome yet. :banghead:

Was just wondering if this happened to anyone else or if I need to trade in my box. Did the cable go out or did FSN have problems? Thanks.

My Charter DVR was ok against NO, but it has screwed up in the past.

They can't do anything about it, but if it makes you feel better, you should call and harass customer service reps. Make sure to bad mouth the company and ask them if they agree.

At the sports bar I was at, FSN froze for two hours when the score was around 42-29.

Mine didn't for this game, but it has in the past. It went out with 40 seconds left in the Sacramento Kings game, so I missed Steve Novaks game winner. I was pissed.

i think that was the score when mine cut out. I'm in the NW 290 area. Is that where the bar was? Just hoping it was some kind of local outtage and not my box going bad. Thank god FSN has midnight replays!

I have Dish Network, and my DVR worked fine after I watched the game again.
