When I woke up this morning I noticed that Bright House Networks had upgraded the firmware on my Motorola DCT6412 DVR. The guide had different fonts and colors and the navigation system is all different. This was a little disconcerting because I was not expecting it, but I could have lived with it.
However, it appears as if the firmware upgrade erased (or hid) all of our previously recorded shows. When went to start a saved show that Mihaela asked for, it was not there!!!! As a matter of fact, nothing was there and the DVR reported that we had no shows saved. Also, it appears that there is no way to record a series now, shows have to be recorded one at a time.
The machine says we have 50% of our space available...but we've only recorded one half-hour show (this is what makes me think that our previously recorded shows are somewhere) since the upgrade.
If this is what happens in an upgrade, I am very disappointed. It certainly doesn't seem like an upgrade to me to lose all previously recorded shows, lose scheduled recordings, and lose features. Great job Bright House and Motorola!!!
