Nothing unusual happening for me. Of the programs listed, the only one I record is series 7 of Young Sheldon which has been fine albeit the recorder will already have been on.
No experience of Quest HD 167 recordings so can't comment on their track record with program start/end markers.
Never needed or wanted to try a reset to factory default settings.
There isn't a custom firmware cache flush as far as I am aware.
Instructions on how to remove the CFW are in the help pages, but you do need a copy of the official software to revert with.
The same help page also has instructions on how to default CFW settings if you want a fresh start which may be closet to what you describe as a cache flush.
There are also instructions on how to refresh the epg database used by CFW if the webif epg doesn't display properly.
I can't think any of these will help this scenario.
If I recall correctly, a recording in progress indicated on the CF webif scheduled events page is taken from the recording schedule rather than disk activity.
So, if an auto recording is delayed by a few minutes by extended news or sport the webif will show the recording taking place at the scheduled time.
Similarly, when the broadcast doesn't have the correct start/end markers, the webif will show a recording taking place.
I've set a couple of Quest HD 167 series recordings on my HDR just to see what happens.
Wheeler Dealers on 2024-08-31 at 08:00 for 1 hour (series)
American Pickers on 2024-09-02 at 08:00 for 1 hour (series)
HDR will probably be on at the start times, so not testing whether it wakes in advance, but I've no reason to think that it would not.
