My HXD890 DVD Recorder is losing channels again after digital retune

Hi all.

My trusty HXD890 appears to be exhibiting similar problems to the ones that prompted

Sony to issue a firmware update (1.24) a few years ago. AFter an enforced retune (I live in EH32, Scotland),

all channels initiatlly look OK, but then a significant number lose signal altogether.

 

Extremely frustrating to say the least. The machine still works very well in all other respects.

 

Any comment?

Thanks

Stuart

Hi Stuart,

 

You're right, there was a firmware update which was to resolve this issue.  I would recommend getting in touch with the support team for further help regarding this issue here.

 

Best wishes,

I applied the firmware update some years ago to resolve the issue.

 

I am saying that the issue has manifested itself again after the recent enforced retune in my locale.

 

Are you saying that SONY have issued a very recent firmware update for my old machine? I doubt it,

but hope I'm wrong. AT the moment, some of my favourite channels are unavailable, and I'm not

very impressed with that to be frank.

 

Thanks

I have contacted SONY support and will update in due course.

 

Cheers
