Hi,
To avoid unwanted power failures, purchase a UPS (Battery Backup) for your UTV (and other power sensitive equipment). Usually can be found on Sale at Office Supply Stores (Clear out old stock)... Since UTVs don't use much power (Some say less then 50 watts) almost any UPS can keep your UTV running long enough to fair the common power failure.
The problems you mention don't seem to be anything serious (at the moment). To do a "quick" reset of your UTV you can use UTV Codes like 12357 from your UTV remote. You don't have to unplug your UTV which can sometimes cause problems too.
Getting the full two week quide depends on how long the UTV stays powered up AND when the UTV gets it's updates from DTV (and the stations). If you want to see how long it will take (for example) power off (unplug) UTV, then plug in and setup a recording for a frequent and regular program. (Lets say NBC Nightly News) Check back often to see how long it will take to get a full two weeks of showings...
As for partial records... check the History Log and see if there was an abnormal end to the programs. This shouldn't happen unless either the program guide shows an early ending OR the UTV is powered down at the time programs begins/ends...
