Anyone else have annoying Green Screen?!

At least 3-5 times per day, my tv screen turns green and the dvr/cable box resets itself.  If I'm recording at the time, it stops recording while the dvr is resetting, therefore I have chunks of my programs missing.  It happens when I'm recording, when I'm not recording and just watching tv, when I'm watching recorded shows.  Always! Constantly!  Annoying!

It sounds like you're using an HDMI connection and the HDCP authentication is failing.  If this is indeed the case do you have the cable box connected directly to the TV?

I had a similar problem and here was the cause

The junction (where the cable splits or tee's) was bad and causing a bad signal to the cablebox.

Try changing out the the junction and that should solve the problem.
