Default Pixelation After HD DVR Software Upgrade

I notice I have pixelation on about 6 channels since the HD DVR software upgrade a few weeks ago.There was no pixelation on most of those channels before.
I'm just wondering if a software upgrade can mess up the channel's.

I would suggest checking the sat box and make sure the resolution and aspect ratio didn't change.

Actually there have been other postings on this website about a pixelation problem that started after the recent HD DVR software upgrade.
Glennb1,you are a rude person and I've seen how you are to many other people here and you are just as rude to them or worse.No class.
If you can't help in this situation,then go to another forum and post something there .

My suggestion would then be to call DirecTV

Hr21 + 0290 = pixelation
