DVR playback tiling and breaking up

A couple months now, every time i watch a recorded show, it gets pixelated and glitchy. I've had 3 technicians to my house to try and fix the issue, and 2 new cable boxes, but still having the same problem. I don't have anymore patience for this. I pay lots of money for this service and i think I'm going to lose my mind if i don't cancel this service. This is my final attempt..... Going to the forums😔🙄

Having the same issues.  DVR recordings only, no real rhyme or reason, will be fine for a few minutes then start pixelating and skipping.

Hello, @user_d01325. At the top of the screen, I see a white title bar that says Xfinity, in large letters, in the middle of it. To the right of where it says Xfinity I then see the bell, pen and paper icon, and our logo (the X in a purple circle). We want you to click the pen and paper icon if you see it there. If you don't see it there, what do you see on your end?

This has been happening to me for over a year now and now solution. For as much as I pay it’s quite disappointing. Any solutions yet?
