Hello
I don't record hardly ever, don't even bother to put HDD's in my box's, but i wanted to watch/record the chelsea v liverpool game on hispasat earlier this morning.
So i found an old 80gb HDD i had laying around wopped it in the box formatted and mounted it all ok.
Then I looked around and searched and searched some more, I could find no info on how to record, yep! I forgot how to do that simple task it's been a long time since I needed to.
Anyways once i'd found out how to timer record i set about the task... i didn't know there were options for recording at the time but there is zap/record or zap and record.
Although I have 2 tuners connected only 1 is enabled tuner A which is the motorised one, so the settings I selected were the channel i wanted Chelsea TV, it was on record so left it at that, and chose the start/finish times.
The dish btw was on 19.2 but I left it there thinking that come the start time it would automatically select the Sat and channel and record........wrong! got up this morning and found "Tune Failed"
So what is the correct procedure for timer recording please, now i've got a HDD disk in the box and while these pre-season early morning KO's are on i'll probably like to take the opportunity and record some more.
Blimey I'm reall y really sorry about the long winded post, I did'nt realise I was wittering on so much.
Oh yeah forgot to mention don't know if it makes any difference but using the Boss's BH 0.6 image.
Apologies and best regards: canthackit

nope
didn't work again tried the Spuds V Atletico Madrid 11:00AM this morning, "Tune Failed" when I got home.
just checked again it was still recording at 1:00 PM but recorded nothing, it had selected the channel but not the Sat, the dish was still pointing at 19.2E, so does this mean then that I have to leave it on the desired Sat and not expect it to move there automatically?
