It could just be the external power supply slowly failing. If the voltage is dropping below a certain threshold it could be causing the box to play up.

I had an almost identical issue with a WDTV streaming box, it would work OK until a slightly higher load was put on the CPU (e.g. fast forward or rewind), when it would cut out and restart.

A new £9.99 PSU from eBay fixed the issue and it's been working perfectly since!
