I am trying to set up this humax for the first time, and everything seems okay except when l go to record anything, it does not let me scroll to either record whole programme or record whole series, the only option l can highlight is reminder. When l try to record something instantly, l get a blue circle with a blue bar struck through the circle in the top right hand of my tv screen, does anyone know what this means and why l can not record any programme?
Thank you for any help.

I agree with Martin. It sounds like the internal hard disk drive is faulty.
If you watch live TV can you press the Pause button to pause the live programme?

I still think the hard drive is either faulty or disconnected internally. Press Menu the select System > Settings> HDD > HDD Test. It should take less than a minute to tell you whether the hard drive is OK. What happens on your box?
This isn't a common fault and I think you have just been unlucky. Contact whoever supplied the box and get it exchanged.
