Having issues on a 5.4.14 openvix image and not sure if might also have a failing hdd.

I access recordings from that box on other boxes but notice my control of play is not right as it may stop or when adds come on 3-6-9 does not fast forward but the arrows give me some control.
Even access into box in that room locked it up also so know its not network related.
Logs are active but show 0.

I know i have to reflash and start from scratch as box has other issues including cam stopping and backups may have bugs as not fixed the last issue.

Last time i updated image and settings restore and later on had softcam issues and updated addons and a fix from feeds.

So might i have a failing hdd for control loss on the way out.

So any thoughts cheers.
