Hi and thanks for the reply. I have a couple of faulty 9300t’s so I’m going to swap a few boards and disks to get a good working machine and ditch the rest. It’s a bit of a hobby and the rest of the family get free PVR’s!
I bought an HDR 2000T a couple of years ago which I use now; it’s a good recorder to use in combination with a smart tv giving all the features of your 5000t box from the combination except the smart retune which makes retuning freeview a bit of a task.
