I'm using an S-Video input. The problem also manifests w/ a Composite
input from the same video source.

I'm starting to suspect that this is the result of a glitchy signal
coming from my Dish 311 satellite receiver; maybe it's throwing off
the PVR-250's ability to synchronize the signal every once in a while?

Thanks,
Mike
