[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1058407, member: 82144"] Hello and welcome GreenMug No it isn't possible to reduce the number of recordings to one per tuner without carefully scheduling recordings in such a way that each tuner gets allocated precisely one recording. In your position people usually simply post log files and ask us to help figure out what is going on. There are a range of possible explanations. Some of the most common involve the recording/timeshifting HDD being stressed or less than ideal signal quality. The HDD could be: [LIST] [*]too full [*]too slow [*]being scanned by security software (eg. MS Security Essentials) => high load [*]in PIO mode (rare) [*]overheating [*]old and on its last legs [/LIST] The signal quality can be affected by: [LIST] [*]bad aerial alignment [*]location with marginal reception (eg. behind a hill, in a valley) [*]weather conditions [*]bad cabling or terminations [*]signal splits [/LIST] Hopefully that gives you some ideas... :) mm [/QUOTE]
