Thursday, 1st Jan 1970

My TiVo is showing guide data to Thursday, 1st Jan 1970 and consequently wont download any further data, I cant seem to solve.

I have searched the forums and used the solutions in FAQ, ProblemsAndSolutions ON OZTIVO.NET and tried everything that usually solves warped clock or no guide data, I have reset the time and it shows correctly, I have rebooted, I have deleted and reloaded guide data.

Has anyone else solved this problem without reimaging?

Are your daily calls sucessful?

Also try this command:
/bin/ntpdate -vb 132.163.4.103 129.6.15.29

And advise the output.

ok, so your time calls and daily calls are successful.

It looks like there must have been some corruption, possibly the early signs of a drive on it's way out or just a glitch.

The easiest way to fix it, while still retaining your programs would be to repeat guided setup (http://www.oztivo.net/twiki/bin/view/Install/RedoGuidedSetup).
