Anthony_VZ -- After seeing your message, I recorded an hour on channel 183 and the thumbnails did NOT show up.

I have a new Motorola QIP-7232 and noticed this problem from the first day I got IMG 1.9. I would say that the thumbnails do show up for less than 5% of the programs I have recorded. I haven't figured out any pattern because they display so infrequently. Even when they do show up, they don't always populate for the entire duration. For example, for a two hour movie, the thumbnails might display for the first 90 minutes or so and the last handful of thumbnails contain the "thumbnail not available" error.

I have tried rebooting the DVR, rebooting the router, changing the IMG to SD mode, and running the self-support tools in the DVR menu ("Fix common DVR problems", etc.) and NOTHING helps.

I am in the Southeastern PA region (northern Philly suburbs) and am willing to assist VZ with troubleshooting this problem.

Thanks!

I just got the 1.9 update last night. I'm not seeing the chapters. Are they only going to be on new recordings going forward, or should my previously recorded shows have them as well?

For me it is a mixed bag. On the information bar near the bottom of the screen there is a small up arrow that engages the thumbnails. Recordings made just a few days before the IMG update do have thumbnails, as do current recordings. But recordings made months ago do not.

I am in NY, and the thumbnail chapters DO NOT show up.  Totally blank.

I've recorded things on 4 or 5 different channels since 1.9 was downloaded.  No Luck.  Also, shows previously recorded before the switch, do not work either.

I hope this is a problem that is resolved quickly.

Some recorded programs have the chapters. Others do not. Is there something I have to do to get chapters to show up on all recorded programs?

The next software update will address the thumbnail problems. I apologize for the invoncenience until then.

Agreed, I experience the same thing. I recorded three programs earlier tonight, all three have thumbnails. But a program I recorded last night does not, and I looked at several others recorded this week and last and none had the thumbnails. No pattern that I can see.

I think chaptering is a great tool, I just wish Verizon would follow through and make it work as it should.
