Checking my recordings this morning from the previous night I found that every recording from 9PM through 2AM had failed with the message that less than 30 seconds had been recorded.
It started well:
CH4 8-9PM (Agents of SHIELD) - Series Link - Successful
But then:
BBC1 9-9.30PM (HIGNFY) - Series Link - Failed
BBC2 10-10.30PM (QI) - Series Link - Failed
CH5 10-10.55PM (Body of Proof) - Series Link - Failed
CBS Reality Mid-1AM (Unsolved Mysteries) - Single Recording - Failed
Radio 6 Mid-2AM (Nemone) - Weekly Timer - Failed
Recordings from 7.10AM this morning seem to be okay, so far, touch wood. I'm scared to check!
All of the channels were manually tuned to the same transmitter.
The box had been powered down completely - unplugged after waiting for the drive to spin down - less than three days ago.
Can anyone tell me what - if anything - I've done wrong please? And what can I do to stop it happening again?
P.S. I've noticed that sometimes when I stop watching a recording I get a message that the channel the box is tuned to is not transmitting, but it was when I started playing the recording. And flicking through the channels a bit gets the signal back eventually. Is this part of the same problem?
