does anybody have luck to record any PBS hd channel on 125w? my elite did it fine before they switched to mpeg4.
now it looks like it does record but plays back a minute or so then it stops and time line is 0.
firmware issue?
thanks

Have you installed the s2/8psk board for your elite? If not, your receiver will not open mpeg4 channels.
