TiVo Recording disappeared two days in a row!

RichardCoulter · 21-08-2016, 17:19

I have a Series Link set for 'Weekend' on ITV.

Yesterday, I found it wasn't in my list of recordings, so checked 'Recording Hiccups' and there was nothing there. No big deal though as it was on Catch Up.

Today, I made a point of looking to see if it had been recorded today and it had.

After watching and deleting a religious discussion programme, I went to watch 'Weekend' and it was no longer there!

I'm on very strong painkillers at the moment, so wondered if i'd deleted it by mistake without realising.

I've looked in both the deleted and recording hiccups folders and it's not there!!

Is this a known bug?

Found today's recording!

It is a HD programme, but wasn't in the HD folder for some reason

Still don't know what happened yesterday though

Your posts on the TiVo do a great job in pursuading me I don't want one

The main issue is that it can take ages -up to 90 seconds- to get to your list of recordings and again to get a recorded programme to play.

Despite this elephant in the room, they feel it appropriate to put the price up yet again in November; which i've decided I won't be paying.

In time, I suspect that you will have no choice but to have a TiVo/Horizon box.

Richard, that is not normal. My box can be a little slow sometimes but not 90 seconds! I think you should give Customer Services a call.

Mind you, from your posts it does sound like you give your Tivo a right pounding. Are you giving it stress tests?

Lol, it does get a lot of use as it's nearly always recording something on Radio 4

90 seconds is the worst that I've had; it's not usually this bad.
