Re: Sky + Upgrade



Yes I have the 17 minute problem - basically if I leave a recording on the
sky+ box for more than a week it happens .... so once a week I dump
everything to my panasonic HS2

Itis a 1st generation SKY+ and is fitted with a 120gb disk. It only seems
to
have been an issue in the last two firmware revisions. I am half convinced
it is a SKY engineered fault / feature.
