Some program's not recording lately & I'm wondering whether the Humax PVR-9200T is past it or are they messing with the program indents they're beaming out. Any ideas? I'd hate to have to buy a new box just now.

Mark & Jamie - cheers chaps! I've re-tuned & not had the problem since so who knows what it was? I will format the drive soon to perhaps clean that up a little. Incidentally, I can't do automatic re-tunes now as I get two lots of a certain Mux - the BBC Mux. Must be from another close by area lol. I use Humax as I once worked for Philips & Humax use their tuners. They are by far the most sensitive & best in the business in my opinion.

After Re-tuning a Philips TV recently I found I was unable to change channels. I had to download the latest version operating software, unzip it, put it on a key drive & re-boot the TV to load it. All was fine after that but that sort of thing maybe difficult for pensioners?
I also updated my Humax recently so it might be worth checking now to see if your gear needs an update.
I'd reccomend everyone unfamiliar with the TV or set top box re-read the instruction booklet. It's cheaper than getting a service engineer out.

Les, I should also mention that the Philips TV now takes quite a bit longer to boot up after that upgrade. So much so that the standby light stays on so long you think you've not hit the remote button! Watch out for that if you have to put a new OS ontoyour TV.
