Tried my first scheduled recording today. X5 never started at the scheduled recording time. Tried again, still does not start. What am I doing wrong?
were you watching another channel?Quote:

Okay, got a scheduled recording to run. But it only recorded 19 minutes of the 30 minute scheduled recording time. Also should the blue power light on the X5 not come on when the recording starts?
Was not watching another channel on the X5. I still watch most of my TV on IKS. xc api. Yes set recording storage to internal.Quote:

I having a major problem. The Receiver keeps resetting to "No Signal - BuzzTV Check the source device is connected and powered on. Or press the INPUT button to select the input for the source device." Keeps doing that every time I start the receiver and go to a channel.

Great, did the reset and got a new URL and sign-in from my provider. So far so good. Now I will get back to trying recording. Guess I should have noted which apps I had previously downloaded before doing the rest.:bawl:
Unfortunately I did not read this prior to resetting. Oh well just a bit more work. :no:Quote:
