Angry Grrr. First box crash killed planet earth :(

<rant mode>
Why does the box _still_ loose a recording entirely when the box crashes?!

Holby City and Planet Earth were both recording (8pm to 9pm). My wife started watching Holby about 8:50 and a 9:01 the box crashed and both recordings are now FAILED with a reason 12 and unplayable.

Why doesn't it keep the old bit?! Grrrrr.

To make things worse my old Sky+ box stopped working as well yesterday (even tried reloading the software on it and get a message on the screen but when it finishes get nothing at all).

<rant mode cancel>

At least Planet Earth is repeated next week!

Makes the hdmi problems look pretty insignificant now

Getting sky to admit liability for this one would be a bit tricky, they would probably say the earth was made with a design flaw and tell you to take it up with god
