We had a two minute power cut at 07:30. The box was scheduled to record Frasier, series linked on Channel 4, so was going to record episodes at 07:55 and 08:30 (as it does every day).

I checked at 08:40 and found that nothing had been recorded, and the next scheduled is tomorrow. Luckily, I had time to catch the 08:55 on CH4+1 !

What I can't understand is WHY it decided to forget today's recordings ? The power was back ay 07:32, well before 07:55, and well before 07:40 (when I guess it would have started "thinking" about recording at 07:55.

It's a mystery to me !

This is a known issue. The box fails to reset it's internal clock until it is re-booted manually.

Ah thanks Gaseous ! I'd totally forgotten about that one. Appreciate the fast reply !

UR welcome

It's also a mystery as to how the HDR can be in the public domain for over a year and still have this major bug go unfixed

No, the real mystery is how it got released to manufacture with the major fault.
