HD digital Sanyo television hooked up to a TIVO and direct TV. Occasionally there is a "rumbling" noise in the background- on recorded programs and "live" ones. The picture occasionally hiccups and then no problems for days. Is my televison, direct TV or TIVO suspect?

-Could you explain your situation a little more?

Do you have the hiccup problem viewing live TV and when viewing the recorded program? If you get the hiccup when viewing the recorded program does it occur every time and in the same spot the program is played?

What is the model number of the TV?

What have you tried to correct the problem?

Sanyo HT30744 The rumbling is not in a recorded program all the time. Or live all the time. It seems to come an go for days at a time. I have only noticed the hiccup on live shows. The TIVO is at least 4 years old- one of the first Hughes for Direct TV. DIrect TV has never had a problem ...

From what you have told me I would suspect the hiccup and the rumbling are TV related. Unless the incoming signal is being fed in the TIVO and then to the TV and then I woulds suspect the TIVO. Diagnosing problems without hands on can be difficult and intermittent problems are difficult with hands on. Without testing all I can provide is an educated guess.
