My Dad's 4000t occasionally records both the HD and SD broadcast of the same programme despite having him chosen only the SD recording, anyone else had this? Is there a default setting that I've missed or something like that?

That would normally be down to a broadcaster screwing up the recording crid (content reference identifier) codes.
If they give HD and SD series the same series CRID but different programme CRID's, the box assumes they are two different episodes so schedules both.

In the past it happened regularly with BBC1 Scotland HD & SD. Not recently which I assume due to they fixed the CRIDs.

I think the crid for your posts has gone awry there Graham as we either have a double post or one is HD and the other SD.

Nope the double recordings involving Scotland were BBC 1 England with BBC 1 Scotland and BBC 1 HD England with BBC 1 HD Scotland. Often after a episode delayed by a showing off Scottish related content.
If the Scottish situation was related to the OP's post you would get an attempt to schedule 3/4 at once which would fail instantly.
The OP must have had a spare tuner not to pick up the issue when the reservation was originally created.
Never seen a situation as posted in post 3, as SD Scotland and England use different but shared series id's for SD and a different shared one for HD.

In any event, I know that the cases I cited were duplicate copies, HD & SD, of the same episode. Cos I had to go thru the folder and delete the SD copies. All 52 of "Homes Under The Hammer" for example (which my wife likes to watch
).
