InactiveI’m not able to record BBC2 HD at the same time as ITV HD. I’m on the Sutton Coldfield transmitter. When I look at the signal test it shows ok for tuner 1 but tuners 2 and 3 show 0 for both strength and quality – is that normal?

Have a look at the FAQ and the answer is there!

How are you trying to record and what happens?

BBC2 HD and ITV HD are both on the same multiplex so whatever the problem is it is not a tuner problem as they would share a single tuner.

That doesn’t really help understand what you are doing and what the error message or FVP_4000T response is.
It would help if you could describe step by step how you are attempting to set the second recording and what the immediate response from the FVP-4000T at each step.

InactiveHi Martin, Thanks for the reply. Are you saying that it is not possible to record two channels simultaneously that are are on the same multiplex? If so, what is the point of having 3 tuners?

InactiveLuke, I was in the programme guide and selected record from the remote (I pressed the red button) The response was to show 2 clashing programmes at the bottom of the screen allowing me to cancel one of them.

I most certainly am not saying that. You should most definitely be able to record two programs from the same multiplex; the point I was making was that they will share a single tuner so your question about signal strength on other tuners is irrelevant.

That does sound odd. If both the cancellation offers were the same MUX, what MUX was the third programme on – the one you were trying to set?
I wonder – is there a limitation on simultaneous or overlapping timers, in addition to the natural limit defined by the number of tuners?

ParticipantWith no recordings going on. ( First check no channels in the 800’s ) See
https://myhumax.org/forum/topic/4000t-some-but-not-all-recordings-corrupted
With multiple transmitters you may be using different mux for channels which are actually on the same Mux on SC. Hence two tuners.
The following should work.
Goto channel 1 start a recording
Goto channel 3 start a recording
Goto 102 start a recording
Goto 104 start a recording
$ recordings across 3 mux.

InactiveHi Graham, OK, There are no channels in the 800’s (the highest is 793)
I checked recordings as you suggested and all 4 work fine.
I’ve also checked 4 recordings from one HD mux and that was also fine.
I then checked 4 recordings in HD across 2 muxs and that was OK as well.
I have no idea what was going on last night.
