Cable boxes are essentially specialized computers. The "card" is a memory module inside the box that stores the last 30 to 60 minutes of video. Sometimes the box logic becomes scrambled and isn't able to use the module, and sometimes the box develops a permanent hardware fault.
As with any computer, sometimes a reboot clears things up. Try unplugging the power cords of all cable boxes for a minute or so, then power back up and try again. If that doesn't correct the problem you'll have to swap out the failing boxes at an Xfinity Store or Service Center (see https://www.xfinity.com/support/store-selector/).
