I have a DirecTivo receiver and a stand-alone tivo hooked up to an antenna and an older RCA DirecTV receiver. The DirecTivo works fine, however about once a month, the RCA receiver freezes up. That is, it shows the same picture constantly and none of the controls work. Power-cycling it is the only way out.
These events seemed to happen mostly on Monday evenings about once a month. The receiver had a relatively old card in it, so I called DirecTV and they swapped the card. Since swapping out the old card, the problem has gotten much worse. It seems to happen nightly now. :-(
Does anyone have any idea what's going on? Is there a cure (that doesn't involve buying a new receiver)?
I am NOT hacking DirecTV. I am a legitimate subscriber. I don't want or need to hack DirecTV. I just want to enjoy what I'm paying for without hassles like this. :-(
