I've been using my PVR 150 for several months now and I started noticing some problems with some of the recordings. Most shows have recorded perfectly up to this point. Last week I recorded a 1 hour at 8 o'clock and another 1 hour show at 9 o'clock. About 35 minutes into the first recording, the video starts showing blocks and a bunch of garbled junk. The second show recorded fine and plays back fine. I copied the file to another system and the errors are in the file. Here are a couple of screen caps from the first show.

Now I admit I'm using a very low power backend. http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=8269 At the time the HD was about 80% full, so I'm wondering if that could have anything to do with it. My first guess would be that the file is getting fragmented while recording and my old system can't write it fast enough. Any suggestions?
