I'm a new DirecTV customer. Our primary receiver is a Genie with Genie Minis for the rest of the house. During our first week of viewing, my wife and I noticed the same small but annoying glitch in the signal. As we are watching a program, the screen freezes in silence for one to two seconds. Then the program resumes normally. Typically only a syllable or short word of the dialogue is missed, but sometimes a critical part of a scene is skipped, which causes the annoyance. Sometimes we can watch for an hour or two without a glitch. Other times it happens every four or five minutes. The glitch is observed on every TV in the house. I haven't studied the problem enough to determine if it occurs on all channels or just some. Anybody else out there have this problem? Any ideas about the cause, or a remedy?
