I started to get problems with shows packing up mid way through watching with an error code.
Where these live programs, recorded programs, or catch up/on demand/apps?
What were the error codes and messages, for example CS1002, CS2400, CS1150?
It's possible that the box with error messages has a hard drive problem which would mean that neither box could play that recording.
Is the box you are currently using the one that had the error codes, or is it the one that was operating correctly?
I decided to concentrate on one box and switched the other off but then this affected the remaining box. It would not record programmes or delete them until or unless I switched the second box on, albeit briefly. This is irritating so how can I unlink the boxes?
It sounds like you may be trying to set/delete recordings on your currently active box that are also set to record on the unactive (switched off box)
You can't set the same programs or series to record on both boxes, however you can fine tune series links to record on one box, irrespective of it being your default recording box.
You can fine tune the recordings between boxes by clicking on the red Record button, then on the next screen click Advanced Options, then on the next screen click on Choose TV Box, then select the box you want the recording to be made on, then click on Record. That program will then be recorded on that box going forward, even if the default recording box is one of the others.
When setting up a new series link go to Advanced and select which box you want the recording to be made on. It will then be recorded on that box going forward. If though you've already got a series link set up for a particular program and want to change it so it will record on the other box then you need to cancel that series link, and then set it up to record again, using the advanced options when you press record.
