We've had two failed recordings on our Foxsat HDR in the last few days - I came across this thread looking for an answer.
Dallas - Wednesday 31st Oct 21.00 Channel 5
Dallas - Thursday 1st Nov 23.00 5*
Coincidence? Both recordings have the blue symbol on the media list and say "recording has failed - unknown reason" when you try to play them. Other recordings have worked fine before and after these ones.
Channel 407 has almost perfect signal strength and all orange or almost all orange on the signal quality bar. Anyway, the channel plays fine. Since we've had our Foxsat box, even the poorest signal quality channels have so far held up even during the most extreme rain we have had.
