I am completely convince you ****ed up installing you IR blasters.
Because I have never seen anyone who did it *right* claim such a lousy

question.


I had a Motorola box and yes I had anywhere from 5-15% failure
rate. All it takes is 1 failure for a show you're dying to watch to
really **** you off.


I suspect if other Comcast subscribers are like you, then Comcast will
be losing a lot of DVR customers:

"Comcast's roll-out of its digital video recorder service has hit another
snag, with Silicon Valley subscribers complaining the TiVo-like devices
freeze while recording their favorite television shows."

"The company has broadcast a software fix directly to the buggy DVRs.
While some Comcast customers are satisfied their DVRs now work properly,
others say the problems continue."

"Comcast's DVR was developed by Motorola. The Motorola box, called the
DCT 6412, is being used nationally by Comcast and other cable television
providers."
