Problems recording and viewing

If trying to record one channel, the other channels go black. Anyone else have this problem? Also, I use to be able to record 5 shows at once, now I can only record 2. What’s happening?  Thanks for any assistance.

Update…..I reset the receiver in the LR and now it works again. I had just reset the one in the bedroom yesterday because sick person was watching TV in LR and I didn’t want to disturb them.   YAY!!!

Yes, I tried that a few times but it didn’t help. Thanks for the suggestion though.
