Curious if anyone might have a solution to this. Not finding much online.

I bought the box new last year in a August. It's been great until last night. The box froze, which is no big deal, but after a reboot, it wouldn't respond. Tried unplugging it over night and this morning, same thing. As soon as you click anything on the remote, the red light on the front of the box goes off and the box locks up. Can't use it at all.

Any idea? I'd hate to have to throw this thing away and buy a new one already...

Update- factory reset fixed the issue.

I was at work when this happened, my wife had been texting me. I factory reset after work and it's fine now.

Update2- nope, worked for about an hour and locked up again.

Update3- Final update (hopefully). As suggested by /u/koshergoy it seems to be resolved now. Thanks guys.
