What service are you on when you try the second record after restarting?

He is getting a timer conflict, can we concentrate on that issue instead of asking about other issues.
Hi, Just tried to telnet with putty, but I realised that I can't remember the password I set some years ago! I've decided to give in, and treat myself to a new receiver so looking at the Zgemma H9 Twin. It seems a lot of receiver for the price, either that or wait for the H10.
just put new password in box. With latest image a password is required
VU+ DUO2 quad tuner with HDD 1 TB + Latest Openvix and VU+ DUO2 FB tuner + Octagon SF8008 FB tuner
Triax 88 cm rotor single LNB 30 E- 40 W
1 Gibertini 1.00 m fixed - 3 quad LNB 19E-23.5E-28.2E
it can be any channel, even one on the same transponder - I tried with BBC1 then a second recording with BBC2. But as I have mentioned I think I need a new receiver as the results are very inconsistent. It has even started freezing up a few times, so I feel that it is on it's way out. Sorry I feel to have wasted your time as I thought it was a bug as it started when I did the upgrade. But many thanks for your help, and others that have contributed!
You have not wasted my time. Issue is that code in image behaves the same no matter what box you use. So we will have to track this down if others report the same problem.
However, what you reported was, "the problem started after upgrading from V 5.3.030. when the receiver immediately reported Record Timer conflicts if there were 2 recordings sheduled at the same time.".
No mention of any power cut, or the possibility of one, in that scenario.
So not unreasonable for people to express surprise when that bit gets added later.

Hi Birdman.
Apologies for the confusion, I had just performed the update an hour or so before the loss of power so my immediate thoughts were that it was caused by the image update. It was only later when I started to set up the same circumstances to analyse what had happened, that I realised it was the combination of both the upgrade & power loss.
Hi Abu,
I had a further attempt at flashing different images last night, and it convinced me that there is a problem with my box as previously I could flash 5.3.039 and it worked fine If I didn't put the box into deep standby or power it down. whereas last night I couldn't get it to record 2 channels simultaneously immediately after the flash and populating channels with AutoBouquetMaker. also the box froze up at the end of one of the flash installs with a black screen and a slow jumpy rotating Vix logo.
I have therefore ordered a Zeggama H7S from your sales website, so looking forward to the new box, and many thanks for your help and excellent forum!

Hi Brian, Many thanks for the info, it's useful for future updates. The box (from World of satellite) came flashed with the latest Vix image pre-installed, and I must say I am both pleased, and quite impressed with the Zgemma H7 - its a world apart from my old Technomate.
Everything works great, It makes me realise how bad my old box was! The third terrestrial tuner makes a big difference too, when doing some back to back recordings which get rejected by the AutoTimer. I just pop some of them on the Terrestrial channels! You can perform up to 5 simultaneous HD channels on terrestrial as BBC1, BBC2, ITV. CH4, & CH5 are all on the same multiplex!
