I'd also like to know if you got this resolved too. I'm also having the same problems and have the first service call tomorrow. if it's so messed up I want the dvr with a hard drive back.
Hi Vegaschef75, what issues are you experiencing with the Cloud DVR? A playback issue impacting cDVR recordings in Phoenix and Las Vegas began on 5/21/19. Our video engineers are working to resolve this issue. We don't have an estimated time of repair, so we'll keep you posted. -Becky, Cox Support Forums Moderator
Hi Becky, It drops the sound of the program for a couple of seconds up to 15 seconds. on tuesday I was Watching a program and about twenty minutes into a hour program it froze for about 10 seconds and stopped and a message on the screen said it was having problems and it would be on again the next day do you want to record it ( which I already have it set to record for its a daily show I record everyday) and the rest of the program I can't get to to watch. yesterday I was watching the San Diego Padres game on 14 which I record every game. I watched till the 4 th inning and went shopping, thinking I could watch it after I came back. I came back about an hour later and when I went into the dvr it said my NETWORK WAS NOT WORKING TRY BACK LATER. I was not able to watch the game. I'm a disabled person so I watch alot of TV. If I can't get it from cox I will be looking for a service that I can. Even if I have had cox for almost 27 years. And they had better not charge me with a service call today ether.

I apologize for any inconvenience this has caused. Did everything work out with your service call today?So far yes. But it took about a week before the box they replaced went crazy. i'm hoping the new one is working better
Hi Becky, I'm having problems again! this time it gives me a message "network not responding" nothing on my dvr will load. it wont let me record any thing new. I called support this morning and she did't set an appointment just said she turned it in "someone will connect with me in the next 24 to 48 hours" this is not good

Cox Support Forums Moderatorjust got home and for the first time since 3am I have full use of my DVR. I sure hope they have this fixed. This is the second time in a month and it's getting old!
