Record Failure

Today's 1.15 Home and Away fon Channel 5 failed to record as it is not new. It is on 5live earlier than the Channel 5 show. Any one else suffered similar record failures? Anything to do with the latest upgrade? It has always worked before.

Re: Record Failure

Was it definitely not a repeat? The episodes for the rest of the week are marked as new so you should be ok.

Re: Record Failure

I don't have mine set to "new only" so I didn't have a problem.

You are right, though. Technically it is a repeat as it is first shown on 5* (5Live is a BBC Radio station ;)) at 1830 the previous evening.

Dr Who failed on mine this Saturday. Yes it was set for all episodes.
O` boy the I player ( next day ) was slow again.Known fault from Thursday should have been fixed by yesterday.Have not bothered to check.

Re: Record Failure

My point was that, as mine recorded fine, and we both have exactly the same system and data, I can't understand why it didn't record for you.

Also...

To clarify. My Doctor Who SL is set to 'new only' and my H&A SL is set to 'new and repeats'.

What does it say in "recording hiccups"?

I just checked and I do, actually, have mine set to "new only". So it's even more of a mystery :confused:

Did not look, or really care that much. Looked at TiVo about half an hour in to programme, had no light on for record. Checked & it had the "r" etc against it. looked at set to record, it was there. Used "I player" the next day to watch it. Which also had problems,at the time the BB was very slow,however Web site said no problem with BB or TV. only issue was with the player and buffering.Still seems strange that it all went haywire at the same time :confused:
