Getting black screens at random and randomly screen will go out. Buttons lag on remote.

Screen will randomly go black Then come back. Often the screen will go blank then a direct tv connect screen comes up. To pause, fast forward, change channel, and to even turn on lags about 20 seconds. I have changed the batteries in the remote as well.

We're here to help, @Caitdat!

 

Can you clarify with us what model of DirecTV DVR and remote that are experiencing this issue?

 

In the meantime, we suggest Troubleshooting Your DVR, and letting us know what steps you were able to make it through. This will help us determine what is occurring, and where to go next with troubleshooting.

 

Let us know if this helps. We look forward to hearing back from you!
