After months of flawless working the last two mornings there has been a blank screen when I switched on my 501 that needed a re-boot to fix. Any thoughts?

That happens to me once in a while. It reminds me that I need to do a reboot of the system once in a while! I've never lost any recordings as a result of it.

This happened to me yesterday a.m. as well. 1st time I've seen it.

I turned on the EPG, saw no listings for the channels & couldn't "select" anything.

Then I noticed the clock was wrong. It was reading about an hour late (showing around 9:35 when it was actually about 10:40).

A reboot fixed everything but it was a weird event I can't explain. I suspect there was a momentary power loss (Edison gives us a lot of them) but not long enough to cause the 501 to reboot on it's own.

huh. Wow! I though mine was the only one that did this!

Its only happened once. . . and it was after a 2 week vacation, so it was unplugged.

Same thing happened on ours yesterday morning as well.

My wife called me at work and I talked her through a reboot. I almost always reboot our 501 Sun evening as part of my routine. I forgot to do it this past Sun, so it figures!
