The 2:40 freeze on D* — Community

#1 Mar 10, 2006 at 1:09 am

I have D* and the HR10-250. I'm sitting here watching Shrek 2 on HBOHD and every 2 min. and 40 sec.( I timed it for 15 min.) the video will freeze and stutter for about a second and the audio will drop out for about 2 seconds. Very consistent. Very maddening. Seems like HBO has the biggest problem with this, as I cannot say for sure what other channel this keeps happening on. I once thought it was caused by my hard drive getting full, but it seems too consistent for that. Is this just another part of living with "HD Lite"?

That type of thing is what they want to avoid... HD Lite is based on the most common demoninator, however much compression the consuming public can stomach.

I don't use that unit but possibly cycling the power via the AC cord, unplug and plug it back in, might reset something that needs to be reset.
