My DVR cannot play back certain recorded shows.
I own a DirecTV DVR that is approximately 4 years old now, and I have started to notice a problem with its recording. When I go to watch certain shows that are 30 minutes in length that were recorded overnight, I am immediately greeted with the keep/delete option for the show and cannot watch it. Any other programs that were recorded work just fine and I can watch them freely. I don't know if the age of the device is a problem or if it being at 60% empty storage space is the problem, but it is a very recent problem for me and I don't know what to do.

Please disregard previous question, I have figured out the problem. It turns out the channel I was recording from (296 Cartoon Network/Adult Swim) keeps glitching and periodically stopping, but channel 297 (Western time version of 296) works just fine. This was the source of the problems that I was experiencing.

Usually happens if your satellite signal is weak. Check your satellite signal readings under the Setup Menu. The majority of the satellites should be in the 80-90s.
