About 10% + of the programs that I record either won't play, or won't play all the way through. There are several scenarios:
1. Select a recorded program to play back and all I get is a grey screen. Stop/restart. FF/RW. no effect.
2. Select a recorded program to play back and I get a message that says something like "Cannot playback this recording right now. Please try again later." I try several times over several days, nothing.
3. Start to watch a program, and part way it just freezes. Sometimes I can FF and miss a chunk, but it continues playing later in the episode. Sometimes, no matter what I do it is just stuck.
4. I have received error code 2.1.2.7 several times, with an 866 number to call.
Are these symptoms familiar to anyone?
