Unhappy Error playing a recording on TIVO box

I was watching a film on BBC1 HD yesterday & had to go out before the end. So I pressed the record button so I could finish the film later.

The film appeared in my recorded section but when I tried to watch it I got the following message:-

ERROR PLAYING A RECORDING
The TiVo box was not able to record this programme because there was no video signal on the channel. You may have been trying to record on a channel that you don't receive.

The is the second time in the last couple of weeks that this has happened & to say the least, it's very annoying. I tried to recreate the error on both occasions but the program I was watching recorded OK.

Anyone got any ideas on this one please?

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

Tried a re-boot as suggested & have not been able to recreated the problem.

However, as I stated in my original post, the problem seems to be intermittent.

Will keep trying & report back if it happens again.
