I'm presuming you have a 360-master & a 360-mini, but can you confirm?

Can you use OnDemand services from both boxes, that's a good test of the hub connection.

Make sure the main box is set to fast start or active start. Also try both boxes connected to the same wifi network, either both on 5g or 2.4g.

 

Hi,thanks for your reply...weirdest thing,when i was trying On-demand services on the mini-box i tried the recordings and they now play 🤷‍♂️ i havent changed anything so it will remain a mystery.Thanks again.

When you say your modem, do you mean the VM Hub or your own modem?
