Cable box volume issues

1.  Does anyone else here have issues with their volume level from the host box ???  My TV volume was normally between 17-20 and now we have jack it up to 45 to even hear it.  This started after an update about two weeks ago.  Of course, when we call the tech line their standard reply is we will send a hit to your box....not the correct answer nor does it resolve the issue.

2.  Another issue is after the 25 Jul 13 software/firmware updates the last few seconds of any recorded show is cut off.  I checked the time with WWV (NIST time hack) and the clock on box is about 5 seconds fast. 

Any ideas as to how to correct any of the above ???

Thanks....

One idea that comes to mind is trying the volume controls on the front of the box.  They should be just to the right of the clock.

Blue22,

There is a menu setting in the receiver to set the volume of the box to “Fixed”. When this option is set, the receiver will not change the volume level and should fix the issue you’re having with your sound.

I see since your post you have upgraded to a new receiver. Are you still having an issue with your recordings? If so, please let me know the show title, channel number, and time that it recorded in order to further investigate.
