L1.11 Reboot problem

[Danbo]

Just got the reboot problem this minute. Here's the scenario...

- In the middle of watching a recorded event
- Two timers set to fire at 7:00 PM
- Timers appeared to fire
- At the same time, the PVR event froze
- No response from remote
- Blue screen, followed by reboot

I've not had this problem occur exactly this way before. I've seen it mentioned in the "Does your 721 sometimes reboot?" thread. Just wanted to make sure we're keeping a list of problems since the L1.11 update.

This must be the night for problems with L1.11. Just had another problem. I'll describe the event now while it's fresh.

- After reboot, I went to watching one of the events being recorded (albeit minus a couple minutes).
- Watched about 20 minutes worth
- Wife came home from working out
- Went to PVR screen, selected the event (American Idol that I was watching), and selected to "Start over"
- Near the beginning, I paused it to hear her say something
- When I pressed "Play" again, all of a sudden the sound was COMPLETELY out of sync with the video
- It also looked, briefly, like it was doing a slight slow motion
- Pressed "Rewind", then "Play" in hopes of getting things back on track
- Not only did things not get back on track, but the video started moving faster, almost as if I had pressed the "Fast Forward" key once (which I hadn't)

THAT was the problem. Of course the problem right afterwards was me mistakenly pressing the "Stop" button and, thusly, stopping it from recording further. Luckily after mere seconds I was able to hit record and keep it going without missing too much. Regardless, this has not happened to me before, and only since L1.11.

They really need to have a pop-up confirmation screen for when you press stop when on a tuner you're recording on. Or even one that says "Press STOP again to confirm your request to stop recording this event, or <insert key here> to return to viewing it". At least SOMETHING of that nature.

The problem is that when you start watching an event from the PVR menu while it is still recording it acts as if you are just watching the channel delayed. That's why hitting Stop stops the recording and View returns you to live. THey need to make it so if you start watching from the PVR menu it acts as if it's a recorded program.
