    Bit of a weird one this is. I'm running version 4.1.3 of Raydon's custom firmware and everything is working fine. I can series link and record programs from the EPG and I used to be able to schedule recordings for non-freesat channels as well but something has happened recently and it's now just ignoring anything scheduled - the first 3 recordings here were all ignored.

    Here's the weird thing, I was up at 6:30am on Saturday the 20th and saw that the box wasn't recording so I turned it on and set a scheduled recording to start at 6:33am to run to 8:15am and it worked and recorded just fine.

    So why would it do that but ignore a scheduled recording I'd set the night before?

    Interestingly, I set a recording earlier just to record a short block from one of the non-freesat channels and it worked fine.

    It appears that it's ignoring recordings set the night before but has no problem with recordings set on the same day.

    Schedule a short Freesat channel recording to start within 15 minutes of the non-Freesat recordings. It should be OK then.
