Had the box since launch. Not a heavy user, but it does see some action. Had a dual record set the other evening. BBC HD & BBC2 IIRC. Box was 'off' & recording while I was watching something on the Sky box. Switched to the Hummy, display changed from clock with REC flag to channel data as normal but only a black screen on TV, although display did show when I switched to GUIDE or RECORDINGS. Left it be as it was busy. Came to it the next morning - no change. Did a cold-start and it came back to life fine, but had failed one of the recordings, reporting clash with higher priority recording (there wasn't a clash AFAIK).
It's been fine since.

Not bad for 7-odd months of ownership I reckon. My Pio KRP-500 has crashed twice in 2 months so the Hummy is in the lead so far

Said I wasn't a big user.....went to watch one of the programs that did appraently record OK just before this initla problem...to find Coast was 713 mins duration. Not surpised it clashed then.... The broken Coast recording was taking up over 40% of the drive and was unwatchable. Took ages to delete as well.
