How do i stop series recordings
A very simple action that I can't find an answer to; how do I cancel or stop a current recording
have just bought a goodmans digital recorder GD11FVRST50 installed it, can get all tv stations thru the recorder but when it is put on standby cannot pick up any stations on the tv message comes up no signal -any ideas what is wrong
What does the reserved part in the library mean? It looks like that’s what recording time I have left but then says next to it “remaining” 190 odd hours left I don’t understand it!
My gv 102zrh seems to have stopped recording new programs, but the ones on series link still record perfect. It says 80% remaining. I have switched off overnight, but no difference

(Click on a problem to comment or help)We have 2 Goodmans digiboxes both bought at the same time about 1 1/2 years ago. now they are both causing similar problems: Freezing,unable to change channels losing sound.We have done all the complete reboots as suggested by goodmans to no avail. these units obviously have an inherent fault which Goodmans should acknowledge.When I asked them if I could return the units for repair they said 'oh it would probably cost more than a new unit'Great!I will never buy or recommend this firm to anyone apart from my worst enemy British engineering huh!

My Freeview box seems to freeze on and off and I can't select any channels as it sits fixed on the same screen. The green light on the box turns into a red-green combination light. Sometimes unplugging from the mains works but it keeps doing this to me all the time. The TV pic freezes as well at times. What is wrong with it !!
My freeview box has frozen. I have tried switching off and on again, even disconnecting it from the mains plug. It starts ok but will not go past 'init'. I have loads of stuff recorded, will I lose them all? Thanx Jackie Dawson
Should the time be visible in the digital display when the reorder is in standby?.Mine comes on when I first switch the recorder off "the time in the display",but when the standby light comes on the time goes off.

My goodmans freeview digital tv recorder keeps trying to connect to host and do a pc/ucart update and then wont do anything else, not even turn off. Ive tried resetting to factory settings but no change. What do I need to do??
Thanks Nathan
My Goodmans Freeview set-top box (a couple of years old) has completely frozen, on BBC2. So the TV itself is working OK. I cannot see the menu, and I can't change channels.
I did a webchat on Goodmans website, they initially said that this was a known fault and they were working on it, and a newer one would work OK. I went and bought a new one, and it had exactly the same fault.
Back to the webchat, they are now being told to deny that there is a fault...they say that units are faulty from time to time...
When I try to watch a programme thats been recorded it says no video/audio and the screens just black.
My goodmans digital box wont come on and the light keeps flashing when useing remote.
Its only just over a year can anything be done please

Solution 1: You have to fit aerial splitter to the "RF IN" socket on back of DTR. Then connect a lead from the splitter to the TV. In effect you then have separate leads to DTR and TV and you will be able to watch TV when DTR is on standby.

Solution 1: Reserve part in library is recordings waiting to record, ie part of a series recording later.
Remaining is the recording time left on hard drive. On my HDD information bar the reserved part is shaded 'yellow' used, 'red' remaining, 'green
