(If it's an HR54 and you're moving it on the splitter like he said, the power pass port that needs to run to that specific box is often marked with a thin red line on the face of the splitter)

Error Code 775

I moved my box from my basement to my bedroom yesterday, and now when I try to use it, I get the 775 error code.  It is connected by coax from the wall to the box, and then by HDMI from the box to the TV.  Is there something else I need to have done?

noisy top line of TV

Occasionally I get a very thin white/static line across the top of the TV. It does not happen very often but is a distraction when it does. It is only specific to the occasional recording so it makes me think its the DVR and not the TV. Any idea on how to fix this? Thanks for your help.
