Hi Brian and Graham thank you for update and info,
Item 1 I can now discount as now explained (and does not cause an issue to me)
Item 2 The three channels that were recorded when it happened last were
Sony Movies
Sony Action
Channel 4
As I said I am not technical am just a normal user of the box.
How do I know what 'mux' the programme is that I want to record i ??
How do I know which programme to put down for record so that this problem does not occur ?
The publicity surrounding the sale of this box says record three channels watch another. This looks to me not to be the case. Oh dear.
Thanks to you both for your input.
Cheers
JamesIt actually says record up to 4 subject to Mux. Which is correct.
However the box should tell you when you make the last impossible recording combination you cannot make this one. Did you not get this ?
If so you may well have a tuning issue.
Do you have channel numbers over 800 in your epg and do the same channdel names appear at the low channel numbers.It sounds as if James did not try to make a fourth recording, but noticed the restriction when trying to watch a fourth (without actively recording) so that could explain the lack of a warning.
Good point, But cycling through the available options using the up/down channel options would have revealed what channels were viewable during the recording were viewable.
The point is three recordings are always possible. When recording three watching another is always limited. Least so if recordings are made from the PSB3-HD mux.
If so you can record 4 of them and even the 5th by a workaround.
