Good point.

After the reboot, I can watch live TV & recordings, but well after the maximum of one hour quoted, I still have a blank EPG and no Planned Recordings!

My evening recordings are now starting, so i'll just keep making manual recordings until everything is back to normal.

Curiously, it has made a Suggestion. This Suggestion is showing in My Shows as available to watch because i've already recorded it??

I don't know what it's basing this on, as it currently has no EPG!!!

It obviously receives information from Thumbs up and programmes that have been recorded. I wonder if it looks at Series Links that have not yet recorded anything and/or live TV (as in effect live TV on TiVo is simply a recording that you are watching in real time).

Edit: Over two hours later and it's still not populated the EPG or Planned Recordings AND it's cleared Recording Hiccups- so I can't check if anything failed yesterday (I normally check the previous days recordings every day, so that alternative arrangements can be made if neccessary).

I know it hasn't got stuck though as it has partially populated Planned Recordings with some daily & weekly manual recordings that I have set. I guess it's now waiting for information from the EPG.
