I posted this in the issues thread, but wanted to see if anyone was having similar issues with x254. I've been reading threads where people are having their own various issues, but nothing like this (unless I've missed it in my readings here).
I've had x254 for about 36 hrs now. This is information from new recordings on x254. Like many others, I've had no problems up until x235 and into x254.
7/22
hd local - cbs, big brother 10
1min in: freeze for 20 secs
4min in: FF through commercial, press play, freeze for 1min
7/23
discovery HD - deadliest catch, 9pm
2 min in: freeze for about 30 seconds
3 min in: 2 brief freezes, one after the other
hd local - cbs, big brother 10, 8pm
first few seconds pixellated
1 min in: a long series of audio being dropped - coming in and out
12 min in: 2 second freeze
21 min in: 2 brief audio drops
26 min in: video stutter more audio drops
37 min in: constant video stutter and audio drops. Program becomes unwatchable. Here's a video of this audio/video stutter: http://tinyurl.com/6rvf6l
hd local - fox, so you think you can dance, 8pm
starts off and continues with so much audio dropping and video stuttering that it's not worth watching.
LIVE TV IS COMPLETELY FINE. I'm going to reboot tonight, and see if that makes any difference, but as it stands, it is becoming increasingly difficult to watch recordings. Am I alone here? Maybe signs of a bad box all of a sudden? Is there any additional information anyone wants to know? I realize I may not have enough data - the problems on Discovery HD may be being experienced by many people, but the problems on my locals might be unique to my area (except my friends aren't having issues
)
My setup and signal strengths are in my signature. If you don't view sigs, here are the current signal strengths on 103c. Keep in mind it's raining right now:
tuner 1
95 96 94 95 93 94 89 95
93 95 91 96 92 96 -- --
97 -- -- -- -- 98
tuner 2
96 96 94 95 93 95 90 95
93 95 92 96 92 96 -- --
97 -- -- -- -- 99
thanks for your time.
