      Mine does this intermittently as well – particularly for shows that my wife watches like The Hills, House Hunters, etc. I always assumed that it was a problem with the guide data. Generally when they get scheduled like that the air date info is not there, so I think MC just automatically assumes that it was a new ep and put it on the schedule.

        I already record most of the shows mentioned here. The only shows I’m planning on adding to my queue are the aforementioned “Stuff My Dad Says” and “Outsourced”.

        Kind of surprised no one has mentioned “The Walking Dead.” It looks AMAZING.

          Hoo, boy, what a trip. Got the new HDMI cables today. Reran everything and noticed that the connection at the video card just wasn’t very solid. I pulled my HTPC out and examined it . . . in the LC-10E, the slot farthest away from the power supply has a ridged lip on it. The shield around the HDMI cable was running into the lip. So I shifted the card over a little bit and then wacked on the lip a bit to fold it over just enough so that the cable would seat fully. Everything now works like a champ.

            Tried changing my HDMI input from TV/SAT to BD, thinking maybe it had some problems with 1080p on an connector intended for a TV box. No help.

            One of my HDMI cables is a clearance special from Menards, so maybe it’s an issue. I went ahead and ordered a couple new ones from Monoprice

                I don’t find any reference to CEC in the manual for my model receiver, I’m wondering if it’s not supported?

                EDIT

                I also noticed remembered that my BIOS was set to IDE mode, so I changed it AHCI . . . no difference.

                ARGH!  :'(

                  Updated the Intel chipset drivers today (motherboard is a FoxConn ELA using P45). No effect.

                  Starting to wonder if maybe my drive is going bad? It’s one of the original LG BD/HD-DVD readers from back in ’07.

                    Oh, yes, forgot to post that. Installed 10.6 when I got the card and tried 10.7  the other night. Full suite both times, no difference.
