Does not record complete program: Has anyone else had this issue?
1972709
I was JUST reading through some of the reviews and one of the folks seemed to list this exact problem - though they were using a Tivo. It seems too similar an issue to be an anomaly: sadly the reviewer determined that after unplugging the drive and starting his DVR back up again, all of the problems vanished, leading him to the conclusion that it was the drive and NOT the DVR. Your best bet is to do the same - remove the drive and see if the DVR functions normally. If so, then you know the drive is faulty. Good luck!

No it hasn't, but did you try to hit the reset? It could be that your video clips are too long.

Is yours only recording a single 3 minute clip/frame/segment or a number of them? Check your settings. I have mine set for 5 minute frames/segments etc. It records continuously for several hours (32GB) but when I down load the card the entire recording is appears in 5 minute segments. Makes it easier to find a spot in the journey. ??????

I used mine to record a recorded movie to another DVDR. I had trouble going to the beginning since it does have a resume play. I even took the disk out and shut off my player. the disk I was playing kept starting over

it says "card full" and stops recording. i regularly clear the card and save anything i want to keep.

When recording anything more than a 5-10 minutes, I need to let it "warm up" by first recording some throw-away content for about one to two times the length of time of what I ultimately need to record. But after it is warmed up, it is fine indefinitely (or until I run out of disk space).

Not that I have noticed, but the software records at about a 1-2 second delay. So make sure you use a second monitor/TV.

It will stop, the built in software is very basic. There is an option that allow you to record over what's already on the card but it is a 10 minutes loop only : to me this is ridiculous !

The insert says 7 seconds. But I recorded once. I tried another take that got messed up and then it wouldn't record past that. It doesn't work.

Susan -In my earlier reply to your "finalization" problem, I forgot to mention that, if a program is scheduled to be recorded within 1 hour, then the unit will not allow a disk to be "finalized". (The finalization function will be grayed-out.)You can wait until the scheduled recording has been completed, or change the scheduled recording time temporarly, then set it back after the "finalization" process has been completed.

I encountered the same problem after I had transferred about 15 tapes. I cleaned the recorder/playback heads and that seemed to help but still was not right...so, I had another recorder that was not as old as the one I had been using and it worked great. Try cleaning the recorder/play back heads.

I've had that issue from time to time and I am able to get it to work by disconnecting the USB and re-connecting it again. Try that and then start again, once the program starts to work I leave it running until I am finished, even if it's for a few days. Also, don't worry about the picture quality on the screen viewer window...the final JPEG you save is good quality.

Don't know. Didn't have this problem. I downloaded the recording to my iMac and played it back from there. If your recorder is capable of doing that, you might try. Perhaps the feedback is in the playback, not the recording.

no, you have a program set. If you rest the programs it should fix the issue. hope it helps

Not to record, no. Unless I missed it somewhere. You get a new file whenever you start and stop recording.

Hi:Hi:Yes, the process is automatic, in any case there are several options on the recording mode, the default is to overwrite. I hope this information will help ..Regards

Sorry, but I haven't reached that point yet. But I'm guessing when memory storage has been reached, it won't record any more. I'm still getting more familiar with mine but so far have been very pleased with it. I use my "antique" recorder as a backup.
