Update For Thu July 3, 2008

Last evening (Jul 2) my DVR refused to record anything. About 8 pm the front panel went dark. I unplugged and left it unplugged – I did not feel like screwing with it.

This morning I plugged it back in not very happy I had missed my early morning shows. At 5:30 pm the guide for the evening’s MAJOR networks had not re-loaded.

I turned it off because sometimes it will load faster and tried to access ZipTv listings on the Internet. Comcast took four tries to load it.

I turned the DVR back on to tell it to record one show. I had to give it the time and station because the guide was showing to be announced.

I went to bed.

UPDATE

Jul 4th, at 8 am - I checked and the damn thing had not recorded the show from the night before or my morning shows.

This will be the second DCH6416 to be replaced since April. Let’s see – I’m paying $10 per month for the privilege of wasting my time on this worthless equipment.

I already know the answer but I want a refund. Quit laughing.
