Occasionally, when I use Double Play, one of the channels will freeze/pixelate but if I go to the other channel and then back all is good. I have the HR34-700 model. Usually it works great.thomamon said:
HR 34 Freezing Video/Digitized Video
Seems as if my box is going crazy lately, or the HD is going.
Anyway to do anything about this without calling them?

This is all on recordings on the DVR. It will freeze and I have to FF to get past the mark where it is frozen. Happened on quite a few of my recordings from the past couple of days.Rus said:Occasionally, when I use Double Play, one of the channels will freeze/pixelate but if I go to the other channel and then back all is good.

your HDD require attention, when you reboot try press Select on face panel then run HDD diagnostics
Which test should I run?P Smith said:your HDD require attention, when you reboot try press Select on face panel then run HDD diagnostics
I have no exactly menu (no HR34 here), something Short/Long test, perhaps SMART tests
OK, I can the surface tests, I'll run the others later!P Smith said:I have no exactly menu (no HR34 here), something Short/Long test, perhaps SMART tests
Thanks for the help
Believe that the test(s) take awhile, so be prepared..
normally a couple hours, if the drive is dying - days
That's why I did recommend (if you can connect SATA cable to the drive) use MHDD to take out SMART table first, then run some tests what you will control: short, long, etc

Yeah, the surface test took 2-3 hours, but passed 100%usnret said:Believe that the test(s) take awhile, so be prepared..
Perhaps bad solder, worst case BGA chips like main [a la CPU] or/and MPEG decompressor(s) if there are separate.
