Can anyone help with this problem.
I recently purchased a second-hand Foxsat PVR for use in France - I have been using a Foxsat HD box (without the hard disk) with great success but wanted the ability to record programmes to get round the time difference.
Everything seemed to be working OK until I tried to setup a recording. As soon as I selected the HD channels from the Guide options, the box locked up and would not respond to either remote or box commands - the only option was to power down the machine from the rear switch. I tried several times but with the same result. I did notice that the message about loading programme info was displayed so I waited to see if this would disappear but it stayed on.
I brought the box home with me fearing that it may have been due to low mains voltage (French supply is only 226 volts) but the problem persisted. I tried doing a Factory Restore but this made no difference.
On a whim, I tried the All Channels option instead of the HD option and the problem did not occur - odd?
After much experimentation I found that the problem only occurs if I select the HD option BEFORE the programme information has finished loading.
I can live with this but it is frustrating having to remember to wait.
Can anyone suggest a possible cure for this?
The Loader is U7.53
and the Software version is 1.00.17 with a date of 20/9/11.
