It may be a fault with the hard disk which does the recording, but I'd check the signal strength to the unit first. You need a good signal for reliable recording, one which does not drop in and out. You should use quad shield coax cable right from the aerial to the back of the Topfield
We have now used warrantee 3 times to get a PVR that does not freeze. None were your brand, but the reboot process was to cut the power to the unit to reset. On each one we took back, this became progressively worse and such a pain. The unit we have now is a Topfield TRF-7160. The only catch is it only has 500 gig drive which is a bit limiting but of all the things that annoyed us this has the least. You can also preset 5 minutes ealy start and 10 minutes on the back end to beat channel 7 slackness on program times. I loves the 128 speed fast forward also to push the ads. What I am saying is they are very flakey items it seems. Just by the way - we went through a antena problem with the mast head amplifier when the amps power supply failed, Just check that also.
just bought a Topfield trf-2460 PVR and I have got everything working except the remote control (that came with pvr) sound funtion. I can record and playback with the audio working fine but even after setting the TF remote control to work on the TV funtion, it just doesn't like it, except for the mute button, that and the off function. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Joe
