Thanks Skip ;) . Makes a lot more sense now.
-
"You can now skip 10% increments on your recording playback by pressing a number on the keypad. The recording is split into 10 parts so pressing ‘5’ on the keypad will skip playback to 50%, while 3 will skip 30%." Not sure how to interpre…

Had this exact issue a couple of weeks ago. I didn't know about the "percussive maintenance". I just replaced the HDD. It's very easy - just swap it out for a new one and then do a factory reset, then it downloads the firmware and you're …

Replaced the T2100 HDD, Maintenance Mode 1 Factory Reset, Bob's your uncle. So, decided to stick with this box for now, since my TV is only 1080p anyway.
-
It was a toss-up between T4000 and a FVP-5000T, but the latter was around double the price. Yep, 1TB version, enough to hold a year's worth of garden makeover programs for Mrs Niggle
-
Thanks, tried that, options 1, 2, and 4. 1 didn't help. 2 and 4 failed, in the sense that it refused to do them. I might try replacing the HDD someday, but in the meantime I've bought a £130 DTR-T4000 off Amazon.

Before the eco-brigade go into overdrive, I was being facetious. By 'Landfill?' I mean, is there anything to try, to recover normal operation, or is it hosed?
-
Isn't the mobile network essentially the world wide internet? I'm somewhat staggered
-
Ah, I see, *that* advice. Do options 2 and 4 both delete the scheduled recording list? If yes, I think I'll just try to avoid channel 109 for now. The benefit doesn't justify the risk.
-
Indeed. But I don't think I have any advice from YouView. A bit mystified by that comment, to be honest. Are you referring to this specific issue?
-
Ok, thanks. Is there much difference between Option 2 (Factory Reset, keep recordings, recommended) and Option 4 (Internet/USB Recovery, keep recordings)?
-
One other thing, my Sony KDL-40V3000 TV, although Full HD, doesn't have an HD receiver, so unfortunately I can't test Channel 4+1 HD (or any HD channels) directly on my TV (except from the YouView box via HDMI).
-
Ok, I just watched (and recorded) the end of Channel 4 News, showing on Channel 4+1 HD, where the sound was ahead of the picture, by maybe 200ms, difficult to say. Playback of the recorded version was also bad. Then I flipped over to watch 'New Tr…
-
Roy, thanks for the summary. Agreed, I need to try a few options. My feeling is that it's only YouView live TV (and maybe only some HD channels) that exhibits the problem, not recorded programs, and not BlueRay. Which obviously points to YouView,…
-
Roy, thanks, I'll give that a try sometime. Although the setting is already at 0, and I'm pretty sure the box has been through a few power cycles since I've noticed the problem. I've been living with it for months now, but only now got around to a…
-
Just your regular Freeview live TV. Channel 4 / 4+1 HD seems particularly bad, but that might just be because I watch the news live, and other programs as recordings.
-
Just a Sony TV. I had a look in the Sony settings but failed to find any settings for picture/sound sync
-
Thanks very much. Yes of course, I realise it's a prediction. My aerial was originally directed at Crystal Palace, and we sometimes got picture break-up. This is what prompted our switch to Hannington, about a year ago. Hannington's better but we s…
-
Roy, thanks. DigitalUK confirms that I should use Hannington (green across the board). Alternative transmitters are Crystal Palace (which looks ok in theory, but I know to be intermittent) and Oxford (no chance). BBC South Today and ITV Meridian a…

(Quote) Hi Daniel, I have recently (effective from yesterday) dropped the TV package from my BT account, so would be very interested in this process. Can you share some details? Many thanks, Nigel
-
Thanks guys. The suspense is unbearable :#
-
Thanks guys. I knew about the messages for recordings that are starting up, but not about these programme reminders. Good to know it was probably just an accidental click of the OK button whilst in the guide, and not something more problematic. Than…

(Quote) Deep joy :)
-
(Quote) Thanks. By saying 'not yet' instead of 'no', are you implying that it's definitely in the pipe?
-
Can anyone confirm, if you hide a channel in the guide, does it also get hidden in the YouView android app? I think that's what used to happen (pre 'next gen') so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
-
I also like the new interface, although a few obvious issues (already mentioned elsewhere): The number of keypresses needed to get back to the last partially-watched recording. - Display said recording as the first in the thumbnail row at the bott…
-
Which one? Just delete the whole series. It's really easy :-(
-
(Quote) Well said. And after getting to the recordings, you've then got to click up/down to the recording you want. To most people, pressing Play to resume playback of the last played item, is fairly common/expected behaviour. You'd think.
