Try disconnecting power to the unit for a while (30 mins+) see if that restores recordings.

Miraculously, the box has sorted itself out and restored all my recordings!Apparently Humax know about the problem. Hopefully I won't be buying another box just yet!

Same issue here - watching a recording on our HDR1000s last night, when it froze and turned itself off - and upon restart, all recordings had been *apparently* wiped; but we still had planned recordings.
Read a few of these posts and it seems to be a fairly recent and well known issue; so unplugged it for nearly two hours this morning... still nothing.
Have now spoken to Humax support, gave me the same story "Looking into it" etc - asked me to do a factory default reset, which should sort the issue out. It didn't; in fact it made things worse - as now it seems all planned recordings have been cancelled as well.
I don't use the phone app, so I doubt that's the cause - unless it was the software update to the Humax for same that has caused all this?
How long did it take for your box to restore programs, Glovebox? Did you do a reset?

Given the propensity of the 1000s to do this from time to time and the fact I am getting to old to crouch down behind the TV and unplug things I've now taught our dog how to reset everything.

No word back from Humax yet. Downloaded the App this morning, hadn't used it before - paired it with the box, and my phone can SEE all the recordings still there. So why can't the box itself? It can't play them, but it's a start I guess...
Come on Humax, please sort this out!
