Some channels pixellated

For the past few days, some channels are pixellated - not all, just some.  The contour box is connected directly to the cable outlet, no splitter involved.   ???   Very annoying, Cox is not cheap.

    @Pixel, Plesae check the coaxial cable to the cable box and make sure that it is snug. Also, please power cycle the cable box and let us know if there is any change. -Allan, Cox Support Forums Moderator.

    I’ve had this problem for months and Cox refuses to fix it.  It sometimes happens during the day, but it is much worse in the evening during prime time viewing.  If Cox doesn’t fix it soon (and there is no indication they are even concerned) I’m going to discontinue my TV service and watch TV via the internet and my Fire TV and numerous apps. I have a feeling that is the direction Cox wants us to go so they no longer have to support TV channels and just concentrate on internet.
