Re: V6 "clicking "
Yeh it’s on its way out. The clicking is from the HDD which is holding the recorded programmes, having trouble. Netflix, etc. doesn't use the disk and hence you don’t see the same issue.
Do be aware that when the disk goes, it will permanently take out everything stored on it, VM have no means of ‘transferring recordings to a new box, they will all be lost.

Not a problem , inconvenient yes. I record everything except news. Sometimes, watch 30 mins later.ie skip ads, and when watching rugby , skips stoppages
