My Humax Box Surprised Me!

[Caran]

I was setting the days recordings. Clicked on a programme, it said cannot record that as you have two recordings for that time. Do you want to record this programme. I mistakenly said yes. It sorted programmes out and one I had set to record was changed to plus one.i normally have to sort out the recordings to plus one myself.

It's Halloween week, so why are you surprised that your Humax box appears to be haunted?

Just treated ourselves to a new Humax box.
It can record four programmes at a time whilst watching another one...luxury.
We only watch BBC live and forward through all the adverts on other channels.

If it's any consolation my Sky box is possessed. It records random stuff that I've never heard of.

[aelmpvw]

does that mean you have four recordings with the last minute missing?

Messalina, if anyone else is using the Sky Box when you're not in, that use is logged in the boxs' memory and it will automatically record anyhting relevant to that topic, because being a clever so-and-so, it's programmed to record your preferences. This happens to our Virgin Box. Mrs Clarion will watch stuff that I wouldn't, but it will automatically record anything akin to what she watched. Because these boxes are clever. They think they know what you want to watch by your viewing history. For no other reason than it can.

The biggest surprise being one found anything worth recording let alone three !

Honestly, neither me or my flatmate are recording anything on the God channels at 2 in the morning. Might be the cats doing it but it's not the humans.
