    If I try and set up a recording on a channel in the 800s from the app I get the R in a circle with an X and does not appear in the Schedule on the box.

    Unfortunately recording from the box results mostly in nothing! Even if I press the red Record button on the remote whilst watching a channel no recording seems to take place. Should I not be able to set up a recording from the app? I used to do that on my old Humax Freesat box.....

    I have done it myself but are you pressing the red button or the record button on the remote?

    If it helps, all the HD channels in my TV Guide are in the 800s....

    It sounds as if you need to clear all the tuned channels (not sure how with that box) and starting again with three manual tunes, one for each of the Mux on your Freeview Lite transmitter.

    If you do not know the transmitter UHF channels, tell us (if you can) the name of your transmitter. Otherwise, can you give the post code of a nearby location (shop, pub etc. - not your own).

    My local transmitter is Newhaven which is about 2 miles away and I have direct line of sight. It transmits Freeview Lite. In almost exactly the same direction but about 10 miles away is Whitehawk transmitter which transmits full on everything. Seems having 2 transmitters in the same direction may be the root of the problem?

    Newhaven has UHF channels on 23, 26 and 30.

    However, if Whitehawk Hill gives a good enough signal, it uses 48, 35, 36, 32, 34 and 33, with a "local" Mux on 40.

    But you must clear the channel memory before manually tuning to either. However, you should not try tuning both.

    No the HD channels are at 101 to 105. Those 800s are the second transmitter on low signal. If it won’t record on the box it won’t work on the app. Do a retune under the Freeview menu.

    I was just saying you need to explain what you are trying to do clearly. Not give half the story

    I know all that. I was replicating the problem of the OP!
