Had a series of failed recordings lately due to 'power cuts' according to the Sky Planner. Also had some 'clashes' when there was no clash. Anyone had similar problems and can suggest a quick fix? Missing Lost and Heroes - nightmare
Had a series of failed recordings lately due to 'power cuts' according to the Sky Planner.
stuprid question, does the planner reb-build delete all of your recordings on the box?
This happened to me last night (for the first time) as I was watching what I was recording - not sure if this info is helpful but I shall post in case.
Have a series link set up for The Apprentice (BBC1), You're Fired (BBC2) and Battlestar Galactica (Sky1HD). Due to a quirk in scheduling (Apprentice & You're Fired moved to Tuesday) there was a clash with the end of The Apprentice/BSG and the beginning of You're fired. I was watching Apprentice with about a 7 minute delay and at 10pm (exactly as far as I could tell) the HD box made it's little power down click and all drives and fans ground to a halt, exactly as if it had been unplugged from the mains without going into standby. The box eventually let me turn it on (again - exactly as if it had been unplugged from the mains without going into standby)
After the reboot the box was quite happy to record You're Fired but the programme planner was showing Apprentice as failed (annoying as I am sure it had recorded the whole thing as I had watched all bar 7 minutes of it) and BSG as clashed.
I shall try Vince's sufggestion tonight and hopefully not have any repeats of this.

Sun spots?I have major issues with satellite signals being received at the moment. Could this be the cause of these failed recordings and clashes (if there is only one input being received) or is this a red herring?
