v+ recording after N3 - Techwatch Support Forums: Digital & Satellite TV, FTA, Cable, Computers, Mobile Phones, Apple and General Tech Forums

Got switched over to N3 a couple of months ago and lost pay channels but was still able to record / pause bbc1 etc.

After a reboot the other night, i'm now unable to use v+ to record. I kind of remember someone posting a work-around involving the engineering menu and removal / insertion of card to re-enable the playback of recorded programs. Does anyone know what it was?

Look on the LED display on the front of the box and when it shows "Live TV", you are able to record.

Re-program your card with the correct IRD, you don't need the BK as long as the IRD is correct.
