Black screened. NBC went all glitchy. Normal channels no problems. Southwest Florida.

2. Sattelite problem?

Or is it something more sinister? These things seem to happen every now and then.

6. Perhaps the OP is wondering if they are alone...

Or if this is happening all over the states...

You have a problem with that?

9. Interesting

I just had my multi-stream cable card installed in my TiVo HD today and it worked perfectly, now I can get my normal channels (including basic HD like ABC, CBS, NBC), but all of the good stuff is gone (Digital Premier subscriber).

I called in, got the run-around, got a service appointment for Wednesday, called back and said that was unacceptable and wound up with an appointment tomorrow AM. Not great, but at least I might have the good stuff back tomorrow.
