Hi, I am having the exact same problem last 2 weeks on my brand spanking new premiere. Every time I go to the main menu and select a recorded show - No sound will play for first 10-20 secs then the sound starts. Ramdomly happens when you change channels or recorded shows. I rebooted the Tivo 2 times but no luck fixing this. It may be a new feature which got added in the last week or two. 'Temporary "take a break" silence' between two shows. I cannot wait for what will be added next...
. Hopefully more people have seen this else we will have to call ourselves lucky winners... Andi
