[TV] DVR Conflict - Episode ReairsI recently upgraded my cable DVR to an HDTV DVR. I'm setting up my Series Recordings and there are some conflicts when I have 3 shows recording. The issue is that the HD DVR is not recognizing the shows that re-air later that night (generally from 11:00 - 1:00am). When I attempt to resolve that conflict and cancel the show I know will repeat later, the HD DVR doesn't recognize and record it. My regular DVR always automatically recognized the cancellation and set the later episode to record. Is there a way to resolve this so that I don't need to babysit my HD DVR to ensure that it recorded the later show? The example that I have is Channel 1008 (WFLAHD) 10:00pm - The Blacklist, Channel 1011 (WFTSHD) 10:00pm - Castle, & Channel 1301 (MTVHD) 10:00pm - Teen Wolf. Teen Wolf repeats again @ 11:30pm, but the HD DVR didn't automatically recognize to record this airing. Any assistance is greatly appreciated! |

Only way I think you can accomplish what you want is not record Teen Wolfe as a Series......simply go it on the Guide....at its 11:30 airing....an just select Record |

You're lucky if you've had a BHN-issued DVR that could accomplish that. I've had 3 different models and none were that smart (never tried a non-HD model, tho). I believe your only option is, since those series will usually be in conflict every week, schedule Teen Wolf to always record later at 11:30. |

If I am reading the issue correctly and I think I am, this is corrected in an upcoming update. I will have more on this soon enough and thank you for your patience in the meantime. |

Oddly enough, I meant to start watching a new show on Monday's that comes on I think at 10pm. Well around Midnight I remembers, went to the search feature on the Android app, just selected any random one and told it to record only new ones, and sure enough, it picked up the re-aired ones at like 2am, so it seems to still be working already on mine. |

I'm now having additional problems with the same Samsung HD DVR. It responds very slow after entering any kind of change from the remote. Also, when I play my recordings I get a black screen. If I do get the recording to play, there are bits that are "slowed down" but there's no pixellations of the video. Unplugging the box after each recording is a short term fix to the black screen issue for only some of the recordings. Is it possible that I will have to get another HD DVR box? |

Yes....two things...you could have signal issue or hardware issue....best bet is to open a direct thread so I can take a look. |

I had the exact same problem with a Samsung DVR. It went away when a tech came out and removed a 3 ft piece of cable that the squirrels had chewed thru. |

It was squirrels that caused Tampa to have the water boil notice for a whole weekend when they chewed through some important power cabling to a pump station that brought the whole facility down. |

Yup apparently they make the cable jacket out of squirrel food. |

It might not be a signal issue. I have 2 SD DVRs that aren't having any issues. |

I'm thinking it's an HD dvr box issue as it is in the same location as the SD dvr that I was using before. I'm also using the same cables with the exception of the HDMI cable. |
