Motherfucking Directv HD DVR
This thing is a complete piece of crap.* I have been having a problem where when I start a recorded program playing somewhere in the first minute or so it freezes up and won't play forward or fast forward and the only solution I have found is to rewind it to the beginning and fast forward past the place where it froze up. Odd, right? So yesterday I went to watch the new episode of The Office (in HD) and when I hit play, just a black screen shows up and I can't rewind it or fast forward it. It does nothing even though it indicates that something 30 minutes long was recorded (and it was on the correct NBCW channel, not NBCE). Motherfucker. Why is this thing so incredibly shitty and what the fuck made Directv think that cutting off Tivo and making people buy this thing would keep them in business? I am so angry. Like being generally not user friendly and having a season pass feature that randomly decides not to record new episodes of shows for no discernable reason were not bad enough.
So, if someone would like to shoot me a PM and let me know if I should pay for this week's Office download or just wait until it hits reruns to watch, I would greatly appreciate it. And if someone would like to buy a barely used HD Directv DVR, just make me an offer. Before I just chuck the thing out my living room window.
*(I almost left the "complete piece of carp" typo there. It made me happy. But good old typo-stickler Hank ruined my fun for me. What! A! Meanie!)
