Bursts of delays on DVR recorded shows

What DVR model number do you have?

When did the problem start?

Have you tried resetting the DVR?

Thanks for the reply! It's a 2 year old Genie unit along with a very thin dvr box. Didn't see model #s on outside of units. I did the reset to no avail. Also took pics of the 2 units in case you need. 

Don't see the pictures. 

Model numbers should be on the back or bottom of the boxes. 

It's possible that the DVR's hard drive is dying.

here's a couple pics in interim

Thanks. The little box is a Genie Mini Client. It's slaved to the big box, which is your main Genie Server DVR. Did you try resetting the big box?

Thanks! Never reset the big box. Any tip on how to reset it?

easy way --use your remote --Search (type) CLEARMYBOX -Search -search all -- It will reboot 

Trying now 

Note: after the reboot it will take 24 to 48 hours for the guide data and VOD menu to return fully 

Just reset it and will watch a recorded show later tonight to test and will report back. Thanks! 

Keep us posted.

UPDATE: Well, that didn't work. Same issue halfway through the recorded show. Thoughts on next steps?

Very puzzling. I've never seen anyone post this issue before. 

Is this happening with ALL recordings?  Just NBC?  Which ones?

What Channel and what Show --was a new recording?
