Unable to record remotely
I have a problem with my TV 360 box where I am unable to record remotely.
I have looked at previous posts and it says to message a moderator with the details.
How do I message a moderator as I have never done this before?
Forum Discussion
You can't contact a moderator or forum team member directly.
You might have seen something like "wait here for a forum team member to respond".
Best if you give a full description of the problem, are you using the TVGO app, is the 360 box set to fast start or active start and not switched off at the plug to save power when you are away (also the hub), do you get any error message. If the 360 is in standby when you are at home can you set a recording using the app.
Hi Stanl
Welcome back to our community forums and sorry to hear you are having issues recording remotely on your set-top box. We want to do our best to help. As mentioned by roy247 are you able to further expand on the issue you are facing? How are you trying to record? How long has the issue been ongoing?
Thanks,
Apologies for not elaborating but I have been busy with work so I will try to reboot the hub later and follow the advice from Roy247 before replying.
Basically I had to have my old TV360 box replaced and it’s been happening since then but I can’t remember when this was.
Ive done a factory reset once and that didn’t work but I’ve not rebooted the hub as yet.
When I try to record wether it be remotely or when I’m in the house on certain programs it tells me the TV360 box is offline even when I’m sat right next to it and I can see it’s on line.
One program that springs to mind that just refuses to record is Douglas is Cancelled on ITV.
There are a few others across various channels but this on sticks in my mind because I tried at least a dozen time to get it to work and then gave up.
What information will you need from me to be of help.
I have 2 major problems with the App at the moment.
The first is that I cannot record anything remotely as I get an error telling me that my device is offline, even though it isn’t.
I have perhaps reported this previously on the wrong forum under TV 360 box and as yet the issue remains unresolved on all devices.
Now if I want to watch a recording on my laptop it will not allow this, but I can on my iPhone, iPad etc.
Help required please
Are you able to in-home stream a recording to the same mobile device?
The same power-saving requirements should exist.
Yes, I can do that.
If you start watching a recording and then stop watching, can you then go to the TV guide and set a recording now that the box has come out of standby.
Edited to add; have you always had this problem and if you have could it be something to do with the port forwarding problems you have posted about previously.
If your 360 is connected by ethernet cable to the hub it shouldn't be too hard to swap to router mode to rule out any possible problems with your mesh and if that doesn't help just swap back again to modem mode.
