Similar problems here. I've had a few series links 'double up' (mostly soaps) on me lately, causing recordings to fail.
On Friday night I had Ashes to Ashes on BBC HD set to record at 9 & True Blood on FXHD at 10. I noticed at about 10.15 that the recording light was not on - looked at the relevant page on the EPG & it had two recordings of True Blood set, both not working because of too many recordings set (True Blood was the only thing set to record) & Ashes to Ashes had failed. Next morning Ashes to Ashes was sitting there ready to watch, claiming to still be recording. I've since watched it & deleted it three times, but it keeps reappearing the next day or when the box is rebooted.
Does anyone have any idea if it's the box, or a problem with the EPG? I did seem to start noticing these duplicate issues around the same time as other people in this thread. Like a few others, I have a few recordings I'd like to watch before getting Virgin involved.
