Hi There,
I have had my PVR9300T for about 18 months now and overall have absolutely loved it. I had a problem with freezing channels which was sorted through an over the air update. However within the last 3 weeks my machine has just stopped recording both programmed recordings and manual recordings when you are on the channel and just press record. – It was like this for 14 days and then just suddenly started working again for about 4 days and then yesterday failed to record some pre-set programmes. Not sure what to do – Can anyone help?
Many thanks for any help you can offer me.
Welcome to the Forum
Apologises for the delay in response.
If you have latest software uploaded 1.00.26, and are sure you are tuned to one transmitter, then it appears you might have a HDD problem. Next to try would be a format, once you have watched all recordings that are important to you.
Thanks for the advice – how would I know if I have latest software uploaded 1.00.26?
Hi Barry
I have just tried that and it does say software version UPTTF 1.00.26 – Sorry if this sounds naive but how would I know if it is tuned to one transmitter? If it is tuned to one transmitter is there anyway that I can save some of the recorded programmes before formatting?
Really appreciate the help.

Hi Barry and Martin thanks for all the help – PVR has now just deleted all saved programmes and is not pausing or recording at all so I will do a format and hope that helps.
Just realised I don’t know how to do a format I thought that it would be in the menu somewhere but all I can see is default setting which I don’t think is the same.

It is under the HDD Control menu item in (I think) the Record section; default password is 0000.
Thanks Martin – In your experience does doing this enable all the functions to work normally again?

In about 90% of the cases yes; if it doesn’t then the hard drive will need replacing.
