SA8300HD


I just got a Scientific Atlanta HD-DVR from Comcast. Worked fine that first
day. The next morning I noticed that the unit was off (time still showing).
I turned the unit back on and it worked all right. Then, later on that day,
it turned itself off again. I called Comcast and the CSR said that the unit
was designed to turn the DVR off at 2:00 in the morning but he had no
explanation for the random turn-offs.

Has anyone heard of the DVR being programmed to turn off at 2:00 in the
morning?

Thanks for reading.
