    Hi All
    On my freesat 1000s HD box I often find that a recording when played back has the ending missing it is not on every recording just some.

    The recording just stops and the screen reverts to the last viewed channel.

    I have checked all my signal strengths etc and they are all fine.

    I rang Humax and they were useless, just kept saying it was because the box was looking at two satellites

    Any Ideas

    Regards

    Doc

    Some channels (usually the main ones) are better than others with accurate record and their adherence to EPG times.

    Humax's reference to 2 satellites is related to the fact that the freesat transponder is at a slightly differing position. Signals from the freesat transponder should be similar to say CBS Action which is on the same satellite.

    Happens to me also on the occasional recording from one of the less well known channels (CBS, True Movies etc). Almost certainly down to the broadcaster not setting the correct start/end tags. Humax talking rubbish.

    It happens occasionally to my HDR1000s but it happened on my old 9300T freeview box as well.
