I just registred to thank Homey
I had the same problem. I moved my Box and HDD to a friend. When connecting the Dreambox, a timer just started, but the HDD was not connected. So it apperently wrote the movie into the flash memory. Now I could play all recorded movies, but not record a new one -> crash. I was really
I was near to reinitialise the HDD (which wouldn't help) with all the movies on it. But thanks to Homey, every thing is working like before
So everyone, if you have the same problem (crashing when starting recording) just boot your box with no HDD. FTP to /media/hdd/movie and delete everything. Reboot with HDD,and the sun shines again
Thanks Homey, you made my day
