@MadCat - if it is possible, could you please take a picture of the recordings stacked for our technical team.  ... View more

Yes it does look like some late fiddling with the EPG is going on again. On my Monday scheduled recordings with 3 consequential recordings on 101 only the middle one recorded. The first one Deception and the last one Condor both failed showings the canceled due to conflict error message. I also checked for conflict earlier and noticed during the recording of Manifest the  then conflict with Condor. With my safety net setting on 1+1 that should not happen. I managed to take a screen shot of the EPG when I noticed the error. ... View more

@MadCat - the CU list is being looked into by departments involved. Once we receive an update regarding that, we'll ensure it reaches everyone.  ... View more

Has the EPG been sorted? Been setting MR all week as I just don't trust my recordings are going to happen any other way. ... View more

@MadCat wrote: If it is software related, why is it only this one show affected. No other problems experienced. We can only guess at that as well. I would think that the s/w related hiccup in the system occurred while your decoder was downloading its copy of that show.   Do we receive CU shows at different times? The differences in what's missing certainly suggest that happens, perhaps based on what random "authentication group" you happen to belong to... ... View more

HI @GeoffD. Most of my recordings I set on a weekly basis, I have very little series recordings. But I will spend some time over the weekend to make sure all is cleared and reset. And hey you never know with the fairies and goblins  ... View more

Thankfully most of these are repeats - already screened on other channels, as the starting times are going to be a recording nightmare. ... View more

I'm seeing similar on my Explora 1, but less severe - just my luck I suppose, this time, as I agree the behaviour appears random or group-like for each user.   Recordings from Sunday - all took place and content is correct, but the synopsis for at least one movie is wrong when playing it, yet correct when looking at its static file.   Recordings from Monday - the first took place, but with minutes to go the back-to-back second recording was rescheduled for I think next Monday and I ended up urgently having to manually change that.   So far nothing lost from my scheduled recordings list (haven't checked this morning though). Not sure if I'll bother posting more, this whole service has become too troublesome to get much involved with it. ... View more

@MadCat wrote: I have no idea what was going on with the EPG on 101 yesterday.   Switched tv on at about 6pm and noticed that Mom was recording, but Champions had not. Explora had set no new recording. Also Alex Inc recording was "cancelled" - did not appear on the scheduled to be recorded and not reschuled by Explora either.   Both Champions & Alex Inc recorded successfully on my Explora 1 on Saturday. I don't record Mom so maybe the EPG issue (if that was the problem) was related to that show?   ... View more

@Jan-Horn, glad to hear that :).  ... View more

Hi @MadCat , EPG is working on correcting this.~ ... View more

So it seems we are getting the series EXPRESS this year - episode 1 recorded at 03H30 this morning and episode 2 is scheduled to do the same next week. I don't have it on CU (or CU+) yet though - unsure whether it will be as 24 hours haven't passed - or possible it will only appear after tonight's repeat broadcast during prime time?   EDIT: And I just picked up that my recording (on 2 different Exploras) have no sound?? Posting about it elsewhere as it seems FOX channel STILL has no sound almost 12 hours  later....   ... View more
