Hi MD, I apologise for my delay in responding, I have sent you a personal message, with some questions. If you do not receive this, or find it inconvenient, please let me know, and I will post my questions in this forum
Cheers
Chris

At the risk of repeating a question, is there any timetable for new Icebox sales recommencing?
I'd planned to invest in one as two of by Beyonwiz PVRs have died, and I'm limping along with old less friendly ones.
It would seem that the SSD issues have now been resolved.
Cheers
Chris

Further apology. I realised this topic should be in Ice Tv general, not IceBox.

My apologies if this subject has been covered but I have been unable to find details.
Quite sometime ago, IceTV introduced a feature that checked EPGs to se if a episode had been repeated, and/or been recorded recently.
Unfortunately this feature is causing some issues for a series I watch on channel 72.
There are a large number of these episodes transmitted, on nearly everyday.
The episodes are nearly always repeats of a series which has been going for years.
I can capture most of the episodes by allowing repeats, and then vetting them to see if I have seen them.
However the EPG info is almost always wrong, therefore the Ice filter arbitrarily blocks recordings, as if I have just recorded an episode. Unfortunately this has the unwanted effect of blocking episodes from a later series which I have not seen.
Is there a way to stop Ice from automatically blocking the recording of any of the episodes of a series, irrespective of the EPG information.
Thank you in anticipation.
Regards
Chris

Thank you Peter, I will.
I'd resisted doing restore from backup as there had been a few warnings in previous firmware upgrades, not to.
Clearly it's not an issue, unless there is a warning for a particular upgrade.

I've just completed resetting the Saturday to Monday timers individually, and resent them.
So far, so good.
They are now showing on T2 timers, and no Ice clash notices, as yet.
Thank you for all the suggestions, and assistance.
Why the clashes occurred in the first place remains a mystery.
Hopefully it was a one off glitch.
Fingers crossed.

Ah, just about to say that's occurred, and I did delete them from the timers list on the T2.
I guess I need to redo them in Ice, and resend them.
It will be interesting to see if that creates a clash again.

Fascinating.
I just deleted all timers, and did a full reboot of the T2.
I then sent a resend timers request from Ice.
Did a refresh on the T2, and all the timers for Tuesday onward popped up, but no timers for today(Saturday) through Monday have come on.

I've just checked my other T2 and the timers seem okay.
I've just set up another timer, through Ice, for Thursday.
This is one of the ones that failed on the problem T2.
It updated quickly, and correctly.
I haven't yet tried deleting the Monday timers, which seem to be the ones the newer timers (for later days) have an issue with.
I wondered if a reboot might be useful, but hadn't considered deleting the existing timers first.

All the existing timers seem normal, and all have the Ice logo.
The Ice menu Show log has the clashes logged, and they all clash with the Monday timers.

I'll check the details of the existing timers, but I don't tend to use manual/auto timers so unsure, other than a glitch, or error.

I just did a resend and within a minute or so got a new failed timers/clash.
Again relating to timers on other days clashing with the Monday timers.
Must be doing something else wrong!

Thanks Peter, and thanks for notifying me in Beyonwiz, as well.
I did the update through USB, but didn't do a backup, and don't think I allowed a restore on the update.
The other USB tuner is showing on devices.
I will check the other timer settings though.
Thanks again.

There seems to be a problem with this service with one of my Beyonwiz T2s.
Both of my devices have had recent firmware updates but only one has had Ice failure issues.
There are no timer updates after Monday 6Sep21, even after I run a manual EPG fetch in menu.
I keep getting clash messages for any timers after this date, but the messages say that the timers are clashing with timers on Monday, despite them being Tuesday, or Wednesday.
I have cleared the timers, and reset them, with the same clash failure.
It would appear that any timer I set through Ice, at the moment gets a failure notice, relating to timers set for Monday 6Sep21.
Are there any issues with Ice, at the moment?
I can see no issues relating to this problem on the Beyonwiz Forum.
Thank you.
