Is it possible that the box has stopped sending DC voltage to the dish ..if so how can I check this


I set lots of recordings for over the Xmas period. Went away for 2 days and found that nearly all recordings started v late into each program (more than 2 hours late in some cases) and this was not channel specific. We did not have power cuts. This has happened before, many times actually.


We set programmes to record, which they do, but then during playback on SOME programmes (not all, no pattern as to which channels/times/days) we frequently find that there are glitches in sound where it drops out for a couple of seconds repeatedly, which can lead to programmes being either annoying or else completely unwatchable. Sometimes it is just the sound which drops out but occasionally the picture goes out too.


I have a problem with subtitles; I need them because I am quite deaf, however with the Manhattan they are quite unstable, sometimes missing, other times just flashing, with no time to read them.


I have a message come up that " playback has failed " on all of the recordings and the " library " button on the remote has ceased to bring up the recordings list although I can still access this via the menu drop-down list.
Is this a hard-drive failure?
Steve.


ihave no sound on bbc2 and some other channrls I have checked cables slill nothing thanks mark


Both aerial connectors on the back of the unit got hot and melted both the inside of the connectors and the cables from the dish. unit has been returned to supplier and a replacement received. Waiting for further info, if any, from supplier


First unit purchased did not decode on LNB2 second tuner input. Next unit has poor reception on LNB 2 and does not reliably stay locked on with either tuner. New dish, twin LNP and circuit - 100% lock and quality with Panasonic HDR. F sockets on back of unit seem very sloppy and connection with quality satelite cable seems problematical.


Does not hold timer settings.... Frustrating!
