I do have the latest software - 9.2a. I had only been recording the digital channels but went back and recorded some analog stations and the problem occurs on that as well. I tried sending the signal straight to the TV rather than through receiver/amplifier. The loss of audio is still there when fed straight to the AV1 port of the TV though not as long as when I feed through the HDMI cable through the receiver.
Given your comments and Michaels, I am wondering if I have a defective box. I had read in some places that the grey screen could indicate a failing hard drive.
