I had to dump HDMI connection for my PVR. It was rebooting a few time daily! Component is stable, for now.

Dr. Dave, Smlunatick:

Thanks for your input !
Will test swapping the STB's next....if it doesn't fix it....it must be the tv and would look into that as I believe it is still under (extended) warranty

Thanks.

Swapped the PVR and STB; same problem

Tv reboots

Either something wrong with the TV or the TV does not like those Motorola boxes

Confirmed tv is still under (extended) warranty; I guess it is time to call the TV people

Wondered about calling Bell about it....but figure they will just tell me it is the tv
