DirecTV confirms HD DVR / receiver glitch, apologizes profusely

So it’s true — hordes of DirecTV users weren’t just dreaming about a glitch that required a painstaking reboot to start the week off. DirecTV has sent out e-mails to loads of affected users which were unexpectedly forced to mash the red “Reset” button located within a door on the front panel of their HD DVR / receiver in order to get things going again.

Of course, even the mighty satcaster can’t replace any missed recordings that were scheduled, but it is “sincerely” sorry for the inconvenience. You’ll still be paying your full bill, though, so it’s not that sorry.
