I have a Humax Freesat box (HB-1100S I think) which allows recording to a USB external disk drive. I live overseas so am unable to use BBC iplayer to watch missed programmes so record anything I don't want to miss. The recordings made from SD channels are always fine but those from HD channels tend to break up. Whilst BBC had SD and HD versions I was always able to opt SD when recording; but now they don't have SD anymore on Freesat so my recordings have to be from HD channels but despite having perfect HD reception the recordings made from HD channels are always breaking up. Currently for recording I am using a sata SSD drive in a usb box so would have thought this would not be an issue - so does anyone have any ideas on what might be wrong and how I may get more reliable recordings from the HD channels?
