Hi,
My TiVo (Philips Series1) just started being very flaky. Looks like it may be a heat problem? After I turn it on, it's fine for a little while (several hours to a few days) and then it starts showing the blue screen (cannot watch live TV because there is no signal). The shows that it records record for just a split second, so when I press Play, I see the initial frame or two and then it stops saying the recording is over.
I originally thought the HD was going, but now that I see that when it's power cycled, it seems to "reset" itself and work for a little bit, I am wondering if it's a heat problem elsewhere.
I have lifetime on it, so I would love to keep it around.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Mark
