<p>Hi Bruce</p>
<p>Check your signal quality and signal strength if they are low this maybe your problem.</p>
<p>You may have a faulty or failing hard-drive on your 8200 unlikely but possible , i suggest you contact Dishtv and explain the issue you are having.</p>
<p>You have stated that you didn't have this problem with sky recorder , logic would indicate that the problem is with the 8200 , just my opinion :)</p>
