But the VHD box does have red button functionality. Worth giving them a call to say your red button doesn't work. And if they say it is because you have ceased the recording features, tell them the VHD box has the functionality and that you would like one in its place. How much room you'll have to negotiate on with that I don't know, as you are on the M (free) package.
