    No failed recording on mine either. Very strange had one every weekday last week and not changed anything.

    The problem persists. Todays episode the last in series 2 (episode 10) failed to record (no error message). Tomorrows episode 1 series 3 is scheduled. Fortunately back up on HDR FOX T2 works as it should.

    Failed recording (this time BBC2 HD) appeared in media list overnight. Reset the series reservation (again). Possibly generated during this morning boot.

    I've had a series of these phantom failed recording in the past too, I just deleted them. Good luck trying to find the cause, the software for these machines seems to be far too complicated.

    It's only a theory but this does seem to be related to the broadcaster using the same series code for multiple series. The phantom failed recordings all appeared around the time one series ended and the following started the next day. Might have to wait a long time for a similar recording sequence.

    I wasn't bothered about the actual failed recordings, more concerned it may have failed a second recording in the same time slot (possibly an overun from one due to complete as the next one started).

    Out of interest (bearing in mind the original failures were BBC1 HD) I have added the follow up BBC HD programme to the schedule (Escape To The Country) so I have two recordings starting at 15:00 one on BBC1 HD and one on BBC 2 HD. In theory only a single tuner should be capable of both recordings. If around after 15:00 I will check that all other channels are viewable.
