    Default Timed Recordings on PVR EX5000

    Thanks to the advice in this forum and firmware in the download section, I am now up and running. I have all channels open and working fine. I do however have one niggling problem.
    The time shift is working OK and i can record instantly if i press the R button but if i try and record via EPG I get a message to say that there is already a program scheduled to record at that time and wont let me proceed even when nothing else is setup to record. Very strange

    Its not much of a problem, but as long as it is happening it means i have to keep my VM+ box going. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
