Thanks for the advice Dave, but I've done all that and I'm still getting missed shows. Eg. The Hamster Wheel, which I have in my list, it was recorded last week, but completely missed this week, despite me having selected it for series recording. A more reliable way of recording it would be to simply record it live when it comes on - but defeats the purpose of Ice TV.

I don't think I'll be taking up this service once my free trial runs out - it's just not reliable.

EyeTV / Scheduled recordings being missed still an issue?
September 23, 2011, 11:23:07 PM
I'm new to both Ice TV and Eye TV  - I previously used a Topfield which despite it's clunky interface, was a lot more reliable.

I"m using a new Mac Mini with a Netstream DTT. I would say that so far less than half the scheduled recordings I've set up have actually recorded. And I still haven't seen any evidence of it happening if I'm not actually watching TV at the time - which sort of defeats the purpose of scheduling.

Just wondering if anyone has any advice on how I could troubleshoot this? I read on another post in this forum that someone was just advised to delete the series recordings and re-add them. Seems like a pretty lame workaround - how long will that work for before you have to do it again?

THe Ice TV mobile app and website look pretty good, with some nice features - I'd just wish they work.
