    Hi folks..hoping this is not terminal.

    Yesterday the PVR suddenly cut out with the ‘no or bad signal’ appearing. After all the usual plug unplug, I did a reinstall of channels. They were all ‘found’ but on saving only a few dozen music channels were actually saved, the rest were ignored.

    I’ve checked 4G mast interference and local mast problems. Nothing doing. It hasn’t been quite itself since I’ve been offloading to the PC, failing to record, slow and unresponsive. But this is on another level.

    Any ideas? Software? Or has the hard disk had a meltdown?

    Cheers

    It is an unusual problem. Can you give an example of the saved channels?

    This specific problem won’t be the hard drive as the channels are be stored in flash memory on the motherboard. Have you tried a reset to default settings?

    So how do you know that only the radio channels were saved?

    They were the only ones listed in EPG. Putting channel 1, 2 etc into keypad was just ignored in favour of the current choice.

    You might try pressing the Radio/TV button (bottom left under the flap) and see if it puts you back in the same state.

    Oh now I really do feel silly. Yes that did it. I’m going to go away now.
