It's a known problem on Topfield PVRs. A signal causing break-up will often corrupt the disk.
I've just checked again and there's an almost usable ITV mux, but nothing on the others. If it's the same tomorrow, and no one else is having a problem, I'll check the cabling in the loft. Perhaps a squirrel has chewed it.

After some investigation in the loft, I found that water had got into the aerial cable, then run into the splitter and damaged it. So the transmitter (and squirrel) were blameless.
At least I've got plenty of space on the PVR disk now; who needs 200 crime dramas anyway?

We have lost all HD channels from Hannington today. Signal strength showing nothing on two separate TVs. We are in Fleet, Hants and have never seen so much as a glitch until now. Odd.

Terry Jones: If both your TV's have gone, that points to a problem with the aerial system. Could be a loose connection, etc, and therefore you've got to check to pinpoint the fault.

MikeB: Just checked our YouView box and that is receiving HD channels perfectly - it reports 100% signal quality, 70% strength. Everything runs off the same aerial via a mast-top amplifier/distributor. Both TVs are Samsung, off to check if they pushed out an OTA update last night....

Terry Jones: No Freeview at all on any set today, so assume either masthead amp has gone or something with the aerial.

Terry Jones: For the record, my masthead amplifier was failing although both it and the PSU appeared OK (LED's lit on both) - oddly the HD channels went first followed by the rest. For diagnosis I took the amp out of the equation and joined the aerial directly to the feed to one set which then picked up all the channels. I installed a new unit and PSU today and all sets are now back to normal. Thanks for the replies!

One media box in the house isn't receiving any HD channels from the COM7 mux on Hannington. All other TV's receive them fine. I can see the exact frequencies it's trying to tune to, but I need a breakdown of what the channel mux/frequencies should be on COM7 to compare. Can anyone help?
