I only changed the onscreen settings from DHCP to manual as I had previously done in this situation and initial setup. The IP address was already set (by the router?) to what it was previously and it confirmed connection. It was just the Gateway IP that was wrong. We live and learn.

Thanks @prpr for the confirmation that the problem is my end. By reference to the internet settings on another box. I identified that the gateway IP address must have defaulted to zeros in the wizard process. After setting to the router IP address all seems well again. Never had to change that...

Thanks for the reply.

Woke up to the initialisation wizard on one of my boxes. After going through necessary onscreen process got it up and running but now need to reinstall webif (got Download and install full interface / telnet menu). Running install give this: Connection seems all good my end.

Temporarily renaming the affected folder overnight appears to have resolved the problem. Thanks for the advice and help given.

There are no orphaned files. There must have been some mid copy, when the RS snapshot was taken, but all sets of files are now present.

Can anyone tell me please, how long failed recordings are listed on the RS homepage, or alternatively how to clear the notifications. I just installed a new HDD and copied back some recordings from the old drive. RS seems to have captured 25 or so “ failures” mid-copy, before the rest of the...

Only wish channels could be edited in this way on DAB!

I have just deleted the EPG data on my boxes in maintenance mode, and they have successfully repopulated with what looks like more sensible data vs the Freeview app. What is required to achieve the same on RS? It is hopelessly out of date, in Anglia region at least.

I have tried that. The function prevents new youtube-dl processes from running during the non-auto times, but not where they are immediately resumed following a reboot. Same applies to impending recording period.

I have set Qtube to download Much Ado About Nothing from the BBC using the default settings. It turns out that the file is too big to process. The process gets to where it builds the temp file then crashes the box when the temp file reaches about 5.5gb. I reported a different example of this...

Possibly, they would be the defaults for qtube.

Is there a maximum size for the output file? I tried to dowmload The Deer Hunter and It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World from BBC. Both progress until the xxx.mp4.temp file gets to about 5.2gb, before the box freezes or crashes. Process restarts on reboot, until it gets to same point. Had to delete...

Thanks @prpr & @/df for the ongoing development. I installed this webif on my boxes with no problem. However my main box reported a crash so I ran fix-flash-packages, as I normally would, but also because the queue had failures as unable to find DLNA helper. The dialogue box showed a not found...

Do you think so? Won't we all be charging our electric cars? Particularly overnight, when solar is not working. The TV ad says can charge car overnight for less than a fiver. A fiver is about a day and a half extra usage in my house. Multiply that by perhaps 2 charges a week and there is...
