Sudden quick flashes across the screen

I would be interested to know if anyone is suffering with the same problem of a quick interruption of picture with a very quick flash across the screen. Problems seems to be getting more frequent today.

Re: Sudden quick flashes across the screen

Do you have a V+box?

Are these flashes happening when you are recording 2 programmes at the same time?

Does it seem to happen more often when you are watching a HD channel, whilst recording another HD channel at the same time?

Has your box started to reboot itself between the hours of 10pm and 11pm much more often than usual?

Thanks for replying, I have a Tivo Box, as for the other questions I will take note.

Re: Sudden quick flashes across the screen

I had something similar about 10 months ago and had to get a new box. There was something wrong with the signal levels to one of my tuners. I don't know if TiVo will have the same problems.
