    Usually with the zoom button on your TV remote

    Not at home now so can't look at the box but it's somewhere in settings, osd settings. Either that or on your TV remote choose auto ratio.

    This OpenAtv seems to be filling my hdd with crap, it seems permanent timeshift is saving everything in individual named files and not an overwritable timeshift file. Think I'll be going back to Hyperion tbh, this won't pass the missis test

    Edit, ok found it, autorecord in timeshift settings

    Also be sure to check your epg storing location and I've seen it set to internal flash on a few images. Path is menu-setup-system-extended system-epg-settings.

    Yeah I have it set that way so you can rewind live TV whenever you like.

    If it's disabled you can't rewind back any further than when you first paused the channel no?

    Permanent timeshift is enabled, it allows you do this, no need to have auto record as well.

    I'm back using the mymetrix skin, don't know why all images have the sky skin, it's horrible. Anyone get it linked to the openstore? If so how?

    Did you mount the drive?

    It's in Menu-infopanel-plugins-mount manager.

    Swap file is, no harm in checking that it's mounted correctly.

    EPG path shouldn't have anything to do with autobouqet maker working or not. also this image is using xmltv importer instead of crossepg. Seems to work just as well but less intrusive on the screen.

    I never said it did. But i only found out myself after a few days when my box started slowing diwn, that the epg settings (not Crossepg settings) were set to internal flash. Changing this to hdd sorted that problem.

    Sorry, misread your post.

    Not sure what to tell you. It always says timeshift not available once immediately after you switch on the box but after that it disappears for me.

    Not sure if it'll make any difference but you could try updating the software in the software management menu. Some new updates today.

    If that's all your missing then manually scan it and add it into your bouquet of choice. You'll get the frequency on Google
