Pixelated

CBS appears to be the only channel with this problem. Help it’s bad.

I restarted the box.  It did NOT fix the problem.

I appreciate you restarting your DVR, @user_2dtz5t. Have you by any chance tried completing a power cycle on your device? If not, please remove the power cord from the back of the cable box for about 10 seconds before plugging it back in. Please let me know if the issue continues after it comes back online.

Yes the issue is continuing after unplugging for 30 secs.  Also the problem is on other TVs in house.   Just CBS as far as I know.

Thank you for those details @user_2dtz5t! Have you noticed if this happens during the commercials on CBS too?

Learned how to turn off the auto tune to HD feature….. the NON HD CBS is fine. No issue.  Seems like a problem on your end…..

It is very helpful to know the standard definition channel does not have the same issue the high definition channel is experiencing @user_2dtz5t. Could you please confirm if the commercials on the high definition channel are experiencing the same pixelation issues that occur during the show or movie being televised?
