You will need to enable permanent timeshift if you want to rewind live TV. However, the PTS is being worked on so may not be as good as it was a while back.

if you follow the guide that abu posted and also in my sig it will explain how to set up the box from scratch including getting PTS to work

Hello, thanks for your advice.
I got PTS working and it's been working ok for a while but today I am receiving an error due to this.
The PTS does work (when I have it on) but when i change channels I get an error message along the lines of:
"Creating hardlink to timeshift file failed! The filesystem on your timeshift device does not support hard links". (Errno1)
I find this to be very strange as PTS still works but this error keeps coming up.
By the way, when i first enable PTS (on this firmware, latest open VIX 3.0) i forgot to edit the settings and it had recorded about 900 minutes! That caused the box to reboot itself a couple of times before i realised what was wrong. I currently have PTS on only recording one channel at a time, 30 mins only etc.
Help appreciated. Thank you!
I have used the built in updater to get all the latest updates. I am now on build 658.
The PTS error still remains (might not be exact wording/missing something:
"Creating hardlink to timeshift file failed! The filesystem on your timeshift device does not support hard links". (Errno1)
On a positive note, STS (pause) does not crash anymore and a few other good things have been implemented :-)
Still lots of PTS updates being done, please be patient while issues are sorted out if you choose to use latest builds.
I've just upgraded to build 662 and am getting the same 'hardlink failed' error for my hard drive :-(
By the way, my box also seems to crash quite a lot (with 'VIX' icon in top left) especially when I am in the menus doing something. Plus sometimes when I turn the receiver on, it doesn't seem to recognise anything being in the hard drive (recorded movies etc). Quite strange and frustrating.
Hi all,
I have updated to latest build (665) from openvix.co.uk and I have managed to sort out the 'hardlink failed' error message, thankfully.
I have a couple of issues with recorded programs/films (have tried searching forum) which I would be grateful for help with:
I just a couple of issues with recorded stuff.
1. When I play a recording from the beginning it stutters until i press forward and go a few seconds into it, then its fine. Do anyone know why and if I can resolve this?
2. Sky Movies recorded content seems to have a bit of a stuttering/picture breaking problem for some reason (some recordings, not all). I find this very strange. Any ideas?
Thanks very much for your continued assistance!
