    My DTivo S2 has started doing this weird thing. If I'm flipping through looking at the recordings on it, and then I go back to the Now Playing screen, the screen is blank. It's got all the graphics, but no program names. If I wait about a minute, they eventually show-up. Needless to say, this is quite annoying.

    Anyone know what's up?

    Thanks.

    :confused:

    I've seen this a few times - it's usually fixed by just restarting your DirecTivo.

    I appreciate the suggestion, but that was the first thing I tried. No dice. :(

    If your DTivo is hacked, it is a DNS issue. For possible fixes see the DVRpedia (see my sig) entry on blank NPL.

    It is hacked, but not connected to the network.

    That's the problem. It's looking for an internet connection. You'll need to set a bunk DNS.
