Cloud DVR recordings are glitchy
If I watch a recorded program via my local DVR, it plays fine. If I watch the same recorded program via streaming (cloud DVR), I get pixilation, skips, frame freezes, and other glitches. It doesn't matter what device I use (PC with Chrome, my iPhone, etc.) I know that it is the recording that is compromised because the glitch always occurs in the same exact frame or frames every time I play it back. Do local DVR recordings get uploaded to the cloud DVR in real time? Any ideas what would cause this issue? I've had my account refreshed and modem reprovisioned but nothing has changed. New recordings have the same problems.

no, the local DVR is not involved. This problem happened some years ago sporadically. haven't seen the issue lately on the forum. the cloud VR records independently from home DVR. the cloud DVR is at comcast's head end server farm in the sky. Back then the issue was overloaded cloud DVR servers and problems cleared in a day or two as load was automatically spread out or capacity increased. has this been an issue for 3 or more consecutuve days lately?
