Recordings always pause while watching.

It seems that lately most of my recordings will pause and skip while I'm watching them. Any clue how to fix this?

    Hi @RyanHitch,

    I can relate to what's going on, and I want you to be able to watch your recorded shows without issues. Are you having any trouble with live tv? Also, do you have a CloudDVR or a traditional DVR?

      I don't really gabe any trouble with live tv. The 2 main channels that always mess up recording are ABC and the CW. I believe I have a traditional dvr
