This afternoon when attempting to record a program I got the message "Television services temporarily unavailable, please try later." Can someone please tell me what is going on. Why won't the DVR record? Programs were recording earlier today. |

I seem to have a hard time remembering the damn thing's a computer and therefore, when things aren't working right a reboot will frequently solve the problem. It did. |

Also you can reboot from the menu, goto options-restart. |

| Is it my imagination or does it seem to re-boot faster when using the menu option instead of the power button re-boot?
I've never timed it but it just feels faster...  -- I didn't used to be this bad...I was worse. |

It would make sense, think of it like your PC. Power button is HARD/COLD Boot. Just using 'restart' in your o/s is a SOFT/HOT Boot.
Usually with that type of reboot you end up skipping some of the self-tests, which may make the boot time marginally faster. |
