Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Upgrading to Sky HD but have a quick question

Paul Reddy · 2011-02-28 14:08:06

I am upgrading to HD this week but have a question. Is it possible to transfer the recordings stored from one box to another and is it possible to copy over the series linked entries etc ?

Technically speaking, you CAN take out the HDD from the old box, take out the HDD from the new box, plug them into your PC and copy the contents.

Further Details here

If you don't fancy going down that route, (it's a somewhat laboured one, and not really as easy as it sounds, TBH) then I'm afraid you will have to backup your recordings to VCR or DVD etc?

If possible, you can leave the old box connected to the TV and swap your card back into it any time you want to view a recording stored in it. Once you've viewed them all then you can remove the old box.
