Hi,

I recently moved to NZ and bought a house with a SKY dish on the roof.  I bought a Yess DVB-S2600U set top box with USB recording capability from Trademe.  It did not like the SKY initially, but a couple of posts on this forum pointed me in the right direction.

However, when I programmed a recording either manually or via the EPG the clock would stop after the recoding.  The next day the date would still be stuck on the previous day. There were a few other quirks, but this one was the showstopper, literally, because it means I can only record one programme before I need to reboot the box.

I contacted the dealer who said the quirks were normal but the clock was not.  He exchanged it for me.  Although the new box seems a bit snappier in its responses to the remote and came already tuned and configured for my SKY dish, the clock issue remains.

There is an old thread on this forum where someone else implied that they had managed to work around the clock issues.  If any one can help, then please let me know.  Otherwise I will have to get a refund.  I don't want to do that because I can't see and similarly priced alternative.

Thanks.
