Lost DVR recordings after daily updates.
Today I noticed I lost 5 recordings after the daily update I have set for 2-4pm, everything I recorded from thursday to sunday morning except for 1, my older recordings are still on there, 21 of them. I have the coutour 2 system. There not even in the deleted items section. New recordings are being recorded tonight. Not sure why I lost these recordings. I have even rebooted the 3 boxes we have the main one 1st then the 2 smaller ones.642Views0likes1CommentRe: DVR/Cable box is lagging and freezing up
This has been happening to me again too, it was fine since May & now it's happening all over again, stuck in fast forward & also weird messages like the dvr isn't available & setting a recording & it saying it's not available. I took a video of this & will sending it to there email. I even rebooted the box for 20 sec. maybe it's the cold weather or wind causing it.32Views0likes0CommentsSurge Protector or wall plug for cable-box-dvr
Just wondering if it is better to plug my dvr into a surge protector or the wall outlet. Will I not have any issues like the remote delays after pushing buttons when using the dvr for a few hours & the box getting warmer, if I plug into the wall direct, I have it now in the surge.2.6KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Contour2 power saver question
I haven’t had a chance to record a video for being stuck in fast forward but last night I noticed after time went by it started getting sluggish and then nothing happened when I hit pause or fast forward or channel up. Then I used the remote instructions to clear, unpair then pair and it started working again without being sluggish doing things in the dvr. Not sure if that fixed it or it fixed itself before I did that to the remote. Just doing anything in the dvr and going through the list of shows on the dvr and a little sluggish with remote commands that is what was sluggish after 3-4 hours.0Views0likes1CommentRe: Contour2 power saver question
nothing spilled on them we got new remotes a couple weeks ago. The box always feels warm, not sure if it gets extra hot, I will try & move it out of that spot to test & see if it works better. last night no issues even though I didn't use it for as long as usual.0Views0likes3Comments
