I've been having issues with NBC for a while now, it only appears to be while recording that channel. It will be fine for a while and then I'll get a couple seconds of what I recorded in the video below.
Any ideas?

let me guess: SiliconDust HD Homerun tuners.
OTA or cableCARD?
I had this problem on one channel for the longest time. Thought it was the antenna having problems with the signal. Then a flash hit me, and I went and moved the top two tuners to the bottom of the list for that channel in Edit Sources. Voila, problem solved.
Bad tuners, I guess. I've thought about replacing that particular HD Homerun. But I have others to rely on.

OTA. I'll have to see if I can figure out how to do that. I didnt know you could do that for each channel. I've got one internal dual tuner and a HDHR dual external.adam1991 wrote:let me guess: SiliconDust HD Homerun tuners.

Edit
Figured it out, I'll have to see how that goes.

Hi. You wrote: " I went and moved the top two tuners to the bottom of the list for that channel in Edit Sources."
Where is Edit Sources? I cannot find this anywhere. Is it in WMC or someplace in the tuner's configuration? I do find where it lists my tuners (I have 3, one of which is a dual), but it doesn't give me any option to specify priority. Thanks.
EDIT - Never mind. I found it buried under WMC Settings->TV->Guide->Edit Channels->click OK on channel->Edit Sources
