    I have noticed, recently, that some recordings set on my 5000T have been different programs but recorded under the correct name and at the correct time. So, for instance, I set up a recording of "Fist Full of Dollars" and was presented with "Last of the Mohicans" but under the "Fist Full of Dolalrs" title. Any ideas on what is happening and how to fix it woyuld be appreciated. Brgds. N.

    At a guess the broadcasters made a late change to the broadcast program and didn't update the metadata that controls accurate recording (or updated it too late for the FVP-5000T to detect the change; in my experience it isn't as good as earlier Humax models at tracking late changes).

    I noticed that on my Humax 1100s that recordings "BBC Traitors" series now shows "The Repair shop" against all the recordings in that folder. Was working perfect a few days ago. Very stange, but I can only assume data error? John L

    Thanks folks.

    I suspected that it was some metadata thing and it turns out not to be a really big issue as I, rather geekily, check out stuff like that and rename appropriately.

    Thanks for your efforts and a Merry Christmas to you and yours if you celebrate that kind of thing.
