OnDemand not showing all movies

For at least the past 2 days, the only movies showing OnDemand are those included with Netflix, Premium networks or those about to air. There are no movies for "rent" or "purchase" available. We have...

    Hi LMNDRPR, you did the right thing by resetting the DVR. When I check the Contour > On Demand > Movies path on a Contour 2 receiver, I see multiple movies available to rent and buy in each category...including "Deadpool 2" and "Incredibles 2." I think we need to send a reset signal to the DVR from the office. I don't think the receiver is updating correctly. Your ability to watch or record TV content would be impacted for only a few minutes while the receiver completes the reset process. When would be a good time to do this? -Becky, Cox Support Forums Moderator

Hi LMNDRPR, we are aware that many of the VOD titles are displayed with a "buy" option only. Our video administrators are working to restore all free and subscription-based VOD television and movie content. -Becky, Cox Support Forums Moderator

Maybe I was not clear, I'm having the opposite issue you mention. I'll just assume that its known and being worked on. Do you have an ETA? It's been at least few days already.

      When I go to Contour > OnDemand > Movies there are ZERO movies to Rent or Buy. I've tried doing a voice search for say "Deadpool 2" and all it brings up is the trailer. No movie. Same with "Blockers", "I Can Only Imagine", "Hotel Transylvania 3" and "Incredibles 2".. no actual movie is found when I know they were there to rent last week!

      Under New & Most Popular it shows 3 whole movies. All of which are Free. This used to display hundreds of movies. Mostly to rent. 

      The only Movies OnDemand are Free (included with Netflix or Premium Channels or those about to air).

      I've reset my box by pulling the power supply and waiting 30seconds before plugging back in. It's been nearly a week now and not resolved.
