Re: Cable doesn't work in the morning; system reboot
Thanks for the reply. My biggest issue with a replacement is we will lose over 300 recorded programs. Apparently, Cox in our area has failed to evolve and doesn't have the capability to back up my recorded programs to a Cloud platform.3682Views0likes1CommentCable doesn't work in the morning; system reboot
Four times in the past week, we have had to reboot our host DVR box several times to access cable. It shows as "No signal" on the tv initially then the box reboots over and over again until i unplug the power cord. Eventually, it reboots successfully but this is easily 30 minutes of our time almost every morning. Anybody else experience this and, if so, is there a solution?4.2KViews0likes12CommentsRe: CONTOUR, not able to view recorded programs, and now not able to view tv above channel 13
0uid said: kjunlady, To begin with, I really like cox as a company, their services are objectively pretty good. I just think they made a mistake with the Contour. After thinking about it I can complain about it, or build something myself to address my needs and potentially follow up with cox after I'm done building what we would like to see from them. :) We've had a number of problems with the Contour system as well. It seems like we have to reboot the equipment (the main DVR box and the little client box) weekly. The main box freezes, DVR fails to record, pressing buttons on the remote are periodically processed VERY slowly, pause fails, "rewind" fails, the main DVR box losing sync with the client box...etc. I have spoken with other Cox customers in the Omaha area about the Contour and they are also frustrated due to problems. So you are not alone. My hope is that Cox takes a step back and looks at the Contour problems. While I suspect that most of the problems are software related in their main Cisco DVR box, it could be more complicated in that the hardware platform has problems as well. Good luck to you.0Views0likes0Comments
