Hi - anyone had this problem ..

I have had TVD for 3 months now - gradually software updates making things more stable. However, a few days ago was the first time that i used up nearly all the hard disk capacity (80hrs).

After recording over night, I turned the system on in the morning and it said 'Critical' on the red thermometer/disc space graphic. So i went about deleting a number of films to free up some space.

Problem: I now have only 20hrs of material left recorded - yet it is still claiming my disc is nearly full. I have lost appoximately 50+ hrs of disk space.

I have telephoned Telewest to see if they can help and they say I may need to reformat - which will mean losing all my prize recordings!!

Has this happened to anyone else? Can anyone help?

Thanks
