Updated on Monday, and no problems until last night (to be fair there had been no problems after 1 November either).

Last night, though, about 22.00 there was what appeared to be a partial restart. Not a full reboot, but the recording we'd been watching disappeared for about 30 seconds, and then the 'play' screen appeared for the same recording.

I do hope this isn't yet another bug.

Hello.
Got my update, it must have been done last night while I was sleeping.
Let's hope it has fixed the problem.

Updated mine Wednesday evening followed by a factory reset. It has been stable since then and hopefully will continue so.

Just when I thought the Sept 28th update had cured the random reboot problem it happened again tonight (at about 21-40) for the first time since updating.
I was recording three channels at the time BBC1, Ch 4 and Ch 5. and tried to watch a previously recorded programme. I don't know if this maximum utilisation of its capability (i.e. recording three and playing one) could be a factor in causing the reboot.

davh - 15 hours ago » I was recording three channels at the time BBC1, Ch 4 and Ch 5. and tried to watch a previously recorded programme.

Not too sure whether these were HD or SD, HD will add extra load; however it shouldn't have caused the reboot.
When I first got my box I hammered it and just done so now again, recorded live HD which also picked up 30 mins of buffer, recorded a further 3 HD channels i.e 4 HD being recorded, played back media, deleted very large HD recording whilst playing back, played back initial live TV from the start. I haven't been able to cause any problems and all recordings where fine.

The UI was, as usual, slooow and no slower than we're used to.
Accessing on demand stuff has caused problems in the past even when the box is doing nothing when there are problems at the other end, but despite my best attempts with 4 x HD and ondemand I couldn't crash it.

If problems persist and you haven't reset your box since the update, consider resetting it (default without format), you will lose your recording schedule which is a consistent pain for everyone and more so as you only see 4 schedules to a page, so take a note of the schedule first.

Hi

Me also,

The system light was red, pressed the power on to get the program visible and while watching BBC2 HD, the Universe program, 26 Dec 2016, adjusted the volume, rebooted.

far fewer reboots since the software update, but has happened randomly a few times and lost recordings.
