[Bannick]

I just Lost all recorder shows on my next box (was only around 52%full) and have also lost the ability to record whether scheduled or manual record (press record while watching a show)

@Bannick :  I suspect there is an issue with your hard drive.  Usually when this happens you'll see a message to that effect when you boot the box or try to watch a recording. What is the make/model of the PVR?

Sometimes if you unplug the box to reboot it, the recordings may become visible again. It may take a few reboot attempts.  It may also never work as a PVR again (unless you replaced the hard drive - probably not worth it for only a few months usage). 

Legacy Digital Cable is rumoured to end December 2023 so you may wish to consider migrating to Ignite. Unfortunately, if there is a hard drive issue, your recordings are probably lost.

Since Rogers is migrating everyone to IgniteTV, they are not being very helpful to people on legacy - declining most troubleshooting requests.
