Sorry for tardy response but been away- Well I tried NHK and its just the same. Also I get very good HDD signal strength for all HD channels with excellent quality as well. However I have narrowed things down a bit. I only get recording errors when recording from an HD channel where the source...
Been away so sorry for not responding earlier. It only seems to occur only when recording something which was itself recorded in HD and is also being transmitted on an HD channel. Same happens on NHK world! Not surprised at that as I get very strong signals for all the HD channels with very...
I am starting to think this is something to do with the SATA interface. The SSD disks I tried were all in SATA caddies but the HDD is a discrete unit - ie was not simply an HDD in a caddy but bought as an integrated unit USB drive - but then again I am not sure if the guts use a SATA connection...
Thanks for trying anyway - the very odd thing is the HDD drive I am using now which works perfectly is very old and well used so in theory should be the least suitable for this application!!! I did run the test again using a USB3 port and these are the results but still can't see why the SSD...

Now I am a bit mystified. I have made a new recording using an old external USB HDD and guess what - no breakup or any problems at all !!! Why is an old mechanical drive seemingly far better then a much more modern SSD? Anyway it works so I will continue to use it.
Agg - thought I had this sorted by seems not. On Friday I recorded two consecutive programmes from the same BBC1 channel, Beyond Paradise then Death in Paradise . The second has recorded perfectly by the first breaks up all the time! Now I am confused. Why shodl that be? I am now going to try...
Well part one of the experiment is fine - it seems from an HD recording made last night it was the caddy as I had put the original SSD into a new a USB caddy The old recordings still show breakup so that must have occurred in the recording process rather than during playback. However the new...
