Is anyone else having problems with the box freezing?
I have had mine for a couple of weeks and in that time the box has frozen twice with the only cure being a re boot

My box locked up 4 times in the first week but I have not had a single problem since then (about 4 weeks).

I did find one possible cause for the lock ups though. if I was recording 2 programmes at the same time and then pressed the "TV/Radio" button, this caused the box to lock up. ( so i never press the "tv/radio" button any more )

I tested the above scenario several times and the box locked up every time. I did post a thread about this a while ago but nobody else has confirmed that the same problem happens on their box.

Just an observation, I have tried this several times on mine and it didn't cause the box to lock up - it's not a universal problem.

Thanks guys. I must admit the problem has not reaccured

I've had one lock-up, just after Christmas - I had had the box only a few days and my wife was watching Eastenders with subtitles on. The subtitles stopped updating though the video kept going. However neither the remote nor the front panel buttons would do anything, even the front panel standby button. I unplugged it for about 30 sec and it rebooted with no problems.

I have had one other subtitle-related problem on live tv - the subtitles stopped being cleared before being overwritten by the new subtitle. I switched subtitles off quickly in case it was heading for a lock-up state. I have had subtitles displaying on a recorded film with no problem though.

Well 4 weeks since my last lock up and got one again last night.

They always happen when i am recording 2 programs and doing something else with the remote functions.
