Anyone else having issues with daily timers that don't record and daily timers that disappear altogether?
Anyone else having issues with daily timers that don't record and daily timers that disappear altogether?
Ok, I just set a timer for PBJ channel, 7pm for 1 hour. It was there, and set. I shot over to God USA channel, and THEN reset the clock to sync to GMT. It was synced, and then I changed it back to manual.
I then went back to the sat with PBJ channel, and the timer was GONE!
Ok, I figured out the timer vanished because I accidentally set my offset wrong by one hour in the future. So, the Micro thought the time was already past, and wouldn't reset it.

3 Blank - Don't remember what was here but it went away on its own
4 Daily KDEV-TV 12:00 1:00 Usually Records
5 Daily KDEV-TV 22:00 2:00 Hit or Miss
6 Daily KDEV-TV 1:30 2:00 Never Records
7 Daily KDEV-TV 4:57 2:03 Usually Records
I have had one other daily record event disappear on its own.
Time is set Manually. All are Daily Record
I was gone for a week, new Thumb Drive, triple formated, all 7 weekly RECORD, on TBN -- nothing on the drive, receiver on standby when left, "on" when returned, dates are advancing, but no recordings. Both LEDs are green.
I was not sure what had happened, temps are over 100 degrees daily, sister-in-law is in hospital with broken out artificial knee and in extreme pain, so not even getting a chance to watch any TV or figure what is wrong.
Need more information. Is this timer or drive related? Is the timer set to record or channel change? Does the unit record if you manually start stop? Does the timer record if you set a timer 2 minutes from now?
The reason that I ask is that my home microHD records Ebru TV, evening news feeds and RTV daily from 3 different satellites in the manual time mode and it never skips a program.
I'll test it again, but it appears if you set a manual timer in "All Satellites", then change and move to an individual satellite and channel by selecting it with the < Sat button, then forget to change back to "All Satellites" before the timer, it won't record if the channel it's set for is off the sat you are sitting on. I'm running the July 6th firmware.
OK, now that is something to go on. We will test to see if this can be replicated.
It's on lyngsat, no secret. 3920 H 18447 801,802
I lost a slew (technically defined as more than 5) of timers from yesterday, actually all of them. Of course I've messed with a bunch of things since setting them, such as scanning transponders on other and the same satellites as the timers and arranging the order of channels as they appear in the guide. I did not delete or otherwise alter the channels or transponders the timers were associated with. Perhaps this is the problem, that playing with something in the antenna or TP menu will affect the timers list. I haven't played with it enough to form any correlations, but I did set two timers over the next 5 days, and will resist messing in the menus in the mean time.
