    I know I had series links for programs on Sunday (17th Nov) but when I went to look at saved recordings I could not see the programs. They were not recorded. The series links had vanished. I added them again. But...anyone else experienced this?

    Hi Boogersa,

    I don't use this model, but are you able to do a factory reset without losing recording? The menus should show options or maybe in the instruction booklet that came with your pvr. Could also be a problem with the data sent from broadcasters to the EPG. Have you tested on other channels/programmes to see if it does the same thing? John

    What were you trying to record?
    Some programs in a series link (Horizons, Panoramas and such like), will appear not to have recorded but will be in the list somewhere with an obscure name relating to the most recent episode.

    I haven't seen this; was the recording schedule completely blank? The most obvious reason would be that the box had been retuned which , unless smart retune is used, will wipe the recording schedule.

    I was trying to series link David Attenborough’s 7 worlds- previous episodes recorded fine. And war of the worlds. Both on bbc 1 hd. My recording schedule for other programs was untouched and ready to record when appropriate. No retune done by me either.

    I recorded David Attenborough's 7 worlds successfully but in SD. I don't think I ever got round to scheduling War of the Worlds so that certainly didn't record. Which transmitter do you receive from? If you don't know, your postcode will enable us to lookup the possibilities. There were some significant changes on some transmitters last Friday which would require a retune.

    It’s probably Black Hill where I get my signal from.
