Are recorded programmes kept when the 360 has been switched off for a long time?
All of my stuff has gone into storage for about a year. My 360 box is 95% full and I don't want to lose the recordings. Will the recordings be there when I turn it back on, or will it delete them because they are so old when I next switch it on due to inactivity? Or will Virgin delete them all as soon as they connect to my box for whatever reason? So I want to know if they will remain when I switch it on, whether or not I connect it to the Virgin cables / internet box. If Virgin does delete them then I will leave the box disconnected and use another way to watch TV until I have watched all of the programmes on the 360 which they won't be able to connect to if it is only plugged into the mains and my TV.99Views0likes2CommentsRe: New v6 box for old?
The Virgin guy took one look at the flashing red light on my V6 box and replaced it. It had been cycling through the start-up sequence for three days. I asked if I could put a 20TB hard drive in it and he said no, so the 1TB drive will fill up and I will continue to move programmes from it onto my external recorder to make room for more on the V6. If it had a 20TB drive in it then I would not need to use the DVD recorder. 100 hours is not enough storage, but 2000 hours would be plenty.358Views0likes1CommentNew v6 box for old?
My V6 box has packed up after many years. I have a technician coming to look at it, but if he replaces it, will it be with another V6? I don't want another type as I can copy recordings from the V6 to an external hard drive recorder which I take with me to watch when I am away from home which is often, and I don't know if recordings can be copied from the other types of TV boxes.Solved806Views0likes9Comments
