No, we just have a standard box in the living room. My wife had discovered the same thing, that the show was “there” but you actually had to do a search to find it. Kind of stupid. There are some things I liked after the last update, like where it would break out what you had recorded into different categories, and how much of them you had watched.
The remote is really aggravating now. I have to hit the FF button several times before it even does anything while watching a program, and then sometimes, when it “catches up” it actually fast-forwards to the end of the show or movie. And then I have to start over again from the beginning.
Sometimes our other room’s “receivers” just … stop working, or the audio in the main room gets this very weird, robot-like sound to the voices. Then I have to reset the boxes. This happens sometimes two or three times a week.
I am beginning to wonder if all of these systems are quirky in one way or another.
The remote FF and Rewind functions are weird. On my remote, you have a choice of a regular fast forward or what I call the "blip forward" in which it is supposed to jump a full minute forward. However, on the "blip", it does not jump to the next point; it gets there, but you have to watch it go by (fast) the whole time. If I hit the blip button 3 times in succession, it will go 3 minutes ahead.
If you look on your screen, you will see little breaks in the timeline of the recorded movie or show. If you hit the regular FF key immediately followed by the blip key, it will jump to the next one of those line breaks. Keep hitting the blip key, and it will keep jumping to the next break. Works the same way in reverse. That is how you're probably getting all the way to the end without intending to do so.
