I Got a EUROVOX EX5000 PVR at the weekend I installed a 120gig hd
all been working fine, apart from when I switch it off on the remote, then next morning it will not switch on, and I have to switch it on and off from the button at the back which is a pain.
is it this software fault or the PVR playing up
I would leave it on all night but it seems to get very hot and wanted to give it a chance to cool down
Thanks for any advice

Thanks for the advice guys
I have UFL_ex5000 fw on it and it's only of a night when I switch it off.
It's ok if I switch it off for a short while, it will come back on, I have not tried it yet without the HD, but will give it ago, but I do hope it not that as it easy for the wife to record with it

Same here, locks up over night. im sure I read somewhere this was cured by using ver 1.1 and not 1.1A. Not sure if this will cure the problem as not had the time to try it yet
