DAB Fatal file error

Recording radio programmes has always been straight forward but just recently I can't record anything. The display shows "Fatal file error". Can anyone help me?

Thanks

No. Not unless there are any psychics on the forum.

You need to at least state your hardware and software setup details.
What receiver ? (make and model)
Recording onto what ?
(PC hard drive, via NAS, other streamer etc. )

Oops! Sorry, yes. It is a digital radio, Roberts. I'm a complete novice with these chat rooms! If someone can help with the fatal file error, I'd be very grateful!

How about giving us the model number, please ?

Edit : After a quick Google with a focussed search string, this thread may help - if this is the model you have.

(user had to swap his 250 MB card for a 128 MB one that was compatible with the radio).

Hi Chris

Thanks for this. Yes, it is a RD-1 FM/DAB digital radio so I'll have a go now looking at the links you have given me. Really appreciate your help

Ok, report back after you've tried this (or found another fix) as it could help others.
Posters should always give details like make and model number; your thread title , however, was quite good.
(I hate it when the thread title just says "Help" or "Please help a noob" or similar).

Roberts Radio were very prompt in getting back to me by e-mail and sent me (free of charge) a new SD card with updated software. However this didn't work so I am sending the set to them and Roberts will charge me £67.66 which is inclusive of all parts, labour, vat, return post and packaging.
