DVR playback freezing

As many others have complained, my DVR recordings freeze during playback on my TV and then resume sometimes within seconds, sometimes it takes much longer and so it continues for the entire recording. ALL RECORDINGS/ALL CHANNELS. I occasionally have success with a system restart and/or refresh but I shouldn't have to do this daily. I have checked all connections. Unplugged, waited 1 minute, reconnected. Battery level is fine. I've done the restart and system refresh. There is no issue with internet service being slow. Device: PX022AN

Same here. I posted about this yesterday too. Happens whether watching a recording and also live TV. It happens on my primary and secondary x1 boxes. I think it’s. New software release bug, but not sure.

Hello, @user_d275dd

 

Thank you for sharing the issues you're experiencing with your cable box. How long has this been occurring for, and has the box been replaced since this started?

@XfinityStephanieK​ Off and on for about 4-5 weeks and no, the box has not been replaced since this started.

Thank you for following up with me! I'd like to run a few signal reports on the box and see if anything stands out. Please send us a Direct Message with your first and last name.

When I try to watch Battlebots recorded on DVR from Discovery Channel, the first couple of minutes play fine.  Then the video freezes and sound continues.

Rebooting xfinity box, rebooting iPad, restarting xfinity app, etc. do not solve the problem.

any advice?
