recording issues

[Rob van der Does]

sorry, maybe me being stupid but I have no idea what you mean by "tuner config is toneburst"

That's only one line in the DiSEqC-settings........

[demented]

I've just started to have the exact same problem. Everything was fine but now recordings are blank. No idea why. Might try and flash the latest ViX, see if that helps.

I know my post is of little help here, but all i can say after reading this thread is that i am not having any of the issues you seem to be having, i'm using my 2T as my primary receiver and record multiple shows daily, all have to this day worked flawlessly.

Same here, haven't had a single recording fail on the TM-2T yet.

Hey people, i'm new here so please be gentle on me and hope i'm not asking silly questions.

I have just received the Technomate TM-2T OE, It has been flashed using the 4D image.

I have a western digital 500gig hardrive plugged into one of the rear USB ports. When i try to record a creen comes up with " Missing /hdd/movie No HDD found or no HDD drive initialized"

In the Media Player option the disc is visible under the file list

Also i have went into Setup/System/Harddisk/Initialization then pressed the Red button to format.

It says Formatting in progress and completes.

When i press record i still get the message " Missing /hdd/movie No HDD found or no HDD drive initialized"

Any ideas anyone, sorry if my question seems basic, thanks

Also when i try to pause live tv it says " Timeshift not possible "

Go into mount manager and see what it is mounted as?

I managed to fix it Stanman

Selected Setup/System/Recording Paths/switch to bookmarks then i selected my hard drive. Seems to be working fine.

Hi wonder if anyone can help when i press record on the program i am watching it records fine but when i try to set up a future timer it says it is recording but when i try to watch it back it is blank.

Did you get this sorted? I am having the same problems. Seems to be when using the EPG i have problems, same as you the screen goes blank when try to play back even though it seems to have recorded. Seem to record ok in real time though. Running on 4d image, that seems to be three of us in this thread with same problems. Using a western digital 500gb hard drive.

i had this issue on my TM-twin and it turned out to be a dodgy feed on my second tuner. i am also using a Weston Digital hard drive. took ages of fafing to work out it was the feeds from the dish!

Thanks for the feedback. Hope its something more simple than this, i wonder how the other 2 who posted got on? It was a friend of a friend who fitted the dish, sure he'll come back out no problem if need be, is it the connection that goes into the satellite that was dodgy? ie cable wasn't connected right or loose connection or something? If this is it easy fixed also? Cheers

Wonder how the other 2 with same issues got on?

its was the connection that went into the box itself and plugged into the second tuner. i would only have blank recordings when watching another channel

Thanks, i'll mess about with it over wknd, maybe try reflashing etc, will keep this in mind though, hopefully get to the bottom of it

I to am having some problem with my Twin OE here, my biggest problem is the recording from the EPG and Timer Recording. When i add timer then my recordings are just blanc
Recording from the red button is totaly fine and works good.

Exact same here, it seems to record sometimes but mostly blank. I am using an external hard drive. Strange
