OK, so I sat down to watch part1 of COM with my kids which I recorded off "Sky3's weekend pass" and according to all the indicators, it had recorded 2h08m, but, in reality it had only recorded just over 1hour!

The progress bar moved along apparently normally, but just by the time it reached the end of the "yellow bar", we'd only been watching for an hour!

Anyone had the same or similar experience?

OK, ta. The second episode looks complete so I've "acquired" ep1 from "elsewhere"!

Perhaps someone on the Toppy website might be interested in seeing the file...

Apparently, according to the Toppy forum, it's not unheard of, but is a very rare event. One for the "hmmm" file...

I have seen this problem on a number of occasions. It is very frustrating when you think you have recorded the whole program but in reality you only have half of it.
