InactiveJust noticed that the ITVHD logo has changed to plain text, but also all my planned recordings have disappeared.
So you guys best check yours just in case.

ParticipantMine has thrown a wobbly as well.

InactiveYes, its all gone pear shaped.
Logo changed to plain text and if you go to the channel by either the EPG or by pressing 119, it goes to the station, but it doesn’t play anything, it keeps on playing the channel you were previously watching (even though the displays shows that you’re watching ITV HD).
Also, all the planned recordings on ITV HD have disappeared too.

Mines the same but recording reservations beyond today are still there and my display just shows 119 though not the station name.
Possibly depends on what postcode you have, i expect mine to change to Central West unlike Gonzos Meridian South.
What on Earth were Freesat/ITV thinking of, making a change like this just before Corrie ?

The Foxsat is OK, be interested to see if overnight housekeeping works properly.

InactiveCorrie? It’s Emmerdale we missed!
You’re quite right Graham, the display shows 119 and not ‘ITV HD’.

InactiveHahaha Graham I was rather lucky that I pressed the guide button at 19:27 and noticed there was no recording icon next to Corrie. Good job I reset it with just over 2 mins to spare.

Daren’t reset mine till later. Watching a recording of Shetland

Thanks for this info, assumed your box updated OK all by itself.

Yeah I presume it did it by itself, the first thing I noticed was no ITVHD logos in my recorded menu.
Checked the guide and saw Corrie wasn’t set, I only noticed it was Meridian by looking at the 6pm news tomorrow.
Display just shows ITVHD.

ModeratorOh flip only just seen this so my timer for Law and Order has disappeared/failed
Looks like we have been mapped to central, which makes no sense whatsoever.
Agree with Graham, timing stinks and why no prior warning from freesat or itv.

InactiveI think this is the second time ITV have done this to us ?
Lost all planned ITVHD progs.
Freesat really is a rubbish brand, I’m going back to my SkyHD box which recorded everything fine.
Why no prior warning ? Because Freesat don’t care and simply blame the channel providers.

InactiveNot sure why Law & Order did not record from ITV HD for me. The timer is there now ready for next week. Fortunately got to it just in time to manually record it from ITV+1 thus avoiding the horrors of using ITV Player.

I set recordings from my new unwatcheable epg, for both Corrie which failed, and Law And Order UK, Which I imagine also failed.
I needed to do a freesat retune and rebuild the entire planner. What a fiasco.
