Directv guide is acting odd HELP!!

[Doghart]

OK I have 3 STBs and our main living room HDDVR is acting odd when using the guide.

I have checked the settings and preferences but am not even sure what the feature is called to be able to adjust or change it.

Here's what's going on:

bring up the guide on the screen, the channel I'm watching is displayed as well as the next 4 channels. I can press the down arrow to move the blue highlight down one channel at a time (works fine) or normally press the CH +/- to move 1 page up or down at a time. When I press CH +/- the guide moves one page at a time but the blue highlight dissapears (it actually stays on the original channel I am on).

So, if I scroll down several pages, the page I'm on has no channel highlighted and therefore, then I have to hit the down arrow to get the highlight to catch up with the page I'm on.

This only happens on one receiver, the other 2 act normally (blue highlight moves along with the page you skip to).

I may just call their support line... #firstworldproblems

Nonscientific, unplug that STB from the 110, let it set for a minute, reconnect power let it reboot.

That's what I was gunna say. That or a hard-restart.

Much like Windows...restart generally heals all woes...until it doesn't.

power down and restart... did the trick.

Thanks fellas!
