InactiveHi guys new member here so Hi to everyone

After years of financial; abuse from sky I decided to switch to freesat.
I bought one of these receivers 2nd hand and it was delivered today.
Plugged it in and everything seemed to be working fine.
I looked through the recordings and noticed there where quite a few programs still on the system so I deleted them all by using series delete with out any apparent problem.
I then noticed there was an update available so installed this.
I set it to record emmerdale & coronation st for the wife on series record.
I checked to see if it had recorded the first program and it said recording failed.
I looked under recordings & it said disk 100% which I task it means the hd is full.
When I looked under soon to be deleted it said thhere was plenty of space.
I set it to record again on itv+1 and when the program started it said something like not enough disc space to record.
Is there any thing I can do to rectify this or is the hd shot.
Any suggestions please let me know.
Cheers Jim.

InactiveSuggest: Go to the system menu and format the hard disk. Then reset the system to factory defaults.
Wait for about 30 mins before setting you first recording so that the updated EPG populates then you should be fine.

InactiveThat seems to have freed up the space

Thanks for the help.
Have you any idea why it happened?
I will try to record on it after it has had time to resort its self.

InactiveHard disk corruption – impossible to say why. Possibly power interuptions or spikes (The unit is almost always in the process of writing to disk).
