I've had various problems with a brand new sky+ box - my old one had similar faults (all since dual recording software appeared) and also disk problems made it not worth repairing.
I have the options set to record 1 min before start and 5 mins after end of each programme
Tues:
Recordings in planner:
1. 7.30 - 8pm BBC1
2. 8 - 9 BBC1
3. 9-10 BBC1
What I got was:
1. recorded 89mins!!! - won't play (does absolutely nothing) - later noticed it says used 0%
2. Recording failed - start missed
3. Recorded 154 mins - it contained all 3 progs so nothing really lost but very odd
Friday:
Planner:
1. 7.30 - 8pm ITV1
2. 8 - 8.30 BBC1
Watched about 10 mins of prog 1 then switched off - recording light still on and red off light.
What I got was:
1. Nothing in planner for this one at all except Part recording (last 1 min) of previous program appeared from nowhere
2. Recorded OK 36 mins.
Engineers don't seem to understand the problem.
Anyone any ideas or similar problems.
