Recording Question

[sea2dog]

I have the Humax youview box, when I go to the guide and hit on a programme on STV HD which is channel 103 then I hit on the R record button it will say record series or record episode, if I chose to record the series the programme records as it should, but what also records is the STV+1 version so I end up with two recorded versions of the same programme, only difference being first one is HD and the other is SD.

How can I fix this so when a series is recorded only the channel that is selected should be recorded and not the STV+1 SD version?

I don’t think you can. Your BT box does similar stupid things. We often end up with two recordings. We just live with it and delete them.

Thanks.
Do you ever get sound dropouts when viewing LIVE subscription channels, the ones that come via broadband rather than the aerial?

[Holgate001]

We don’t get any sound problems with our box when watching any programmes.

Do you view the non freeview channels live though?

Contact the broadcaster (STV) and ask them to sort out their use of CRIDs.

[Holgate001]

Yes, mainly BT Sports and Eurosport viewed via broadband.

I take it that you have a Humax box and BT Hub?

[Holgate001]

Hi We have a BT Youview box which is a Humax DTRT2100 box and a BT Hub.

@Holgate001
May I ask which BB speed package you use?
