This has nothing to do with it. I have tried other firmware

has gotten worse over the last couple versions, and is now easily

Yeah firmware doesn't matter much. I'm running 1.7.1 now but I've
run all versions at one point or another. Just watching TV have
always been ok, but you can't reliably change the channel anymore!<br>
