What's going on?
Some of our programming partners are currently being affected by a ”sun outage,” meaning the sun is causing signal interference with our satellites. Viewers may continue to experience frozen frames and video distortion (glitches). These issues could also be present in DVR recordings. Heavily corrupted recordings are removed automatically, so some viewers might notice that they are missing recordings of recent broadcasts.How long will the outage last?
This could potentially last through October 12, or somewhat longer. The duration of the outage may vary from customer to customer. We will post updates as they become available.Which channels are affected?
