    Apart from mfscheck, another test that may correct the errors is fsfix, but I did not suggest either as after running them you may end up with a TiVo that will not boot.

    One non destructive method of testing the actual drive is using seagates seatool utility.

    Thanks Peter, good idea. I ran fsfix and got a segmentation fault error:

    TiVo [p0] /tvbin]# /tvbin/fsfix -splash -uncollide -rehash -salvage
    Writing 401560 bytes to OSD at address 0
    EventSwitcher stopped
    fsfix: mounted MFS volume, starting consistency checks.
    Segmentation fault


    I am going to try a clear and delete everything and see where that gets me.

    Cheers, Dave

    I have double checked the server, and there is nothing (even temporary) I can do for you.

    The C&DE should rebuild the MFS and allow the updated headend to be loaded.

    Well I've completed the C&DE. But still no joy.

    Now after I complete the setup call, every Programme Source that I select gives the message 'No service providers were found in your Postal Code'.

    I can't understand it. I've done this many times in the past without these problems.

    Can you just confirm this TiVo did make daily calls before and was not still using the old loadguide system?

    I cannot see any recent downloads from this TiVo's TSN.

    Yes definitely this TiVo has been making daily calls for more than 2 years. Its had a new HDD 2 years ago, and I configured it for the server move last year. It was operating just fine until it failed to get the Foxtel lineup change mentioned at the beginning of this thread.

    I've noticed the same thing as you about this TiVo's ID not appearing in the script that shows the last slices downloaded. I just put that down to the fact that it was configured for UK headends, but I really don't know if that's the reason or not.

    But are the daily calls made through a cron job using loadguide or using the actual daily call function?

    Do your other UK TiVo's show up in the script?

    Might be corruption in the TiVo software which a C&DE would not fix. Apart from starting from scratch, you might just want to copy the image from a good TiVo and use that as a base.

    Sorry I wasn't clear. Its using the actual daily call function.

    The other UK TiVos that work also use the actual TiVo daily call function, and they don't show up in the script at http://www.oztivo.net/tivo-bin/myslices.pl either. When I enter their serial numbers I get the message: "It seems that you have not received any TV guide slices from the OzTiVo Emulator yet. Please do a Daily Call, and come back to this script after it has completed" however they are receiving guide data just fine.

    Ok Cool, must be a UK software thing on the myslices script.

    Can you pm me your other UK TiVo serials.

    Dave can you please try GS again and let me know the time you tried.

    I want to check the server debug log.
