I bought another Roamio remote. Initially it seemed to work fine. But after a couple of weeks it started acting flakey.
What happens is that *sometimes* it ignores (or doesn't receive) some of my button presses. Because of the sporadic nature it seems to be more likely to be interference or something intermittent in the transmitter than a physical problem with the buttons.
I know I shouldn't have to point it at the tivo for it to work, but I usually do out of habit, and because I still have to point it for the IR to the TV for volume, etc. What is very odd to me is that when it starts failing I can usually get it to work simply by rotating it along the long axis so it vertical while still pointing toward the tivo.
I have done limited testing of moving it to other orientations (like vertical), and I think that may also help.
That perhaps indicates a loose connection inside?
Are there any known problems of this sort?
