I am sure someone has had the same problem.

Unless Favre's spectacular pay blew up your DVR.

A little thick isn't it?
Thought instructions were given out not to make every thread a "Him" thread?

It's part of the "My DVR took a pooh" flowchart:

1.
Check to make sure DVR is plugged in --->
See next
2.
Check to make sure DVR unit's power in on --->
See next
3.
Make sure you hit record for the particular show you want to record --->
See next
4.
If the Vikings are playing and Favre whipped some major jiggly butt --->
See next
5.
You're ~messed up~ --->
Buy a new DVR

See, even you still crack me up at times......

My guess is he exceeded the recording limits of his DVR assuming he was recording it via DISH Network or DirectTV. With DISH I believe it's 60 hours of record time.

Or he forgot to pay his bill.

Dish doesn't restrict you.
The only restriction you have is the size of the hard drive.
If you use up all the room, it will start taping over old recorded material, starting with the oldest.
Found that out the hard way during the Bejing Olympics, when I accidently erased ALL of my wife's sitcoms...

I needed to remember to record it, and i didn't.
I actually have a stand alone dvd recorder, still haven't fully hooked everything up after the move.
I'm waiting on the new bulb for my projector, should be a beautiful 110" screen in a couple days.

Not a good idea putting your email out here for the world. I would send in a PM instead.
