I have a Phillips Series 1 standalone Tivo, which I use with a Directtv receiver.
1. It occassionally reboots on it's own. It doesn't matter if it's recording at the time or not. I can tell because of interrupted recordings and my 30 second skip is reset. It also occassionally quits responding to the remote. When it does this the green light doesn't change brightness when a remote key is pressed like it normally does. It also doesn't respond via the network card during this time. If I'm watching something I usually pull the power cord to restart it. Today I let it go and after a few minutes it rebooted by itself. I assume that the 2 are connected - that it always stops responding to the remote a few minutes before it reboots.
2. Today I had watched something on the History channel. It was set to record a show at 4:30 on the E! Entertainment channel. I came home about 10 minutes into the recording and saw the History channel, the show that was on at the time. The channel banner said it was on E!, the bug in the corner and the show was defiinitely the History Channel. I stopped the recording, changed to a different channel then to E! (236) and restarted the recording. I watched the first part of the recording and it was normal. The only thing I can think of is that I paused on the History channel and was seeing the buffer play out, but wouldn't the TiVo changing channels to record wipe it out?
