Dish 510 DVR that wont record properly or play paused TV show
I have a dish 510 DVR that used to pause TV shows and record them just great.
Lately, this system will rewind a live show (slowly), and the playback stutters unacceptably.
Recordings report a "file system error" is there some way to reinitialize the harddisk, so that disk errors can be repaired? I'm pretty sure it just needs to be defragged or equivalent.
System reboots (without unplug) don't solve the problem.
thanks,

Make sure that the software is correct. Should be P4.07
you can go into the DVR and replace the hard drive but I would suggest getting Dish Home Plan, Replace the receiver and then cancel the Home Plan. Talk to Dish Network and they will work with you.
