Hi Phil
Thanks for the response. I made the change you requested, and rebooted
the box but the issue is still there. I actually had to reboot for an
unrelated reason - it's not my preferred troubleshooting method!
I've captured the full log where the recording is attempted, and it's
about 100 lines so I have put it up here:

I'm not sure about the descrambling - I'm not using a CAM as all my
channels are FTA. Please let me know if you would like any other info -
would like to get to the bottom of this so I can finally replace my sat
provider's box!
James
