When I went to view recordings of the 846, there was no audio. The A/V amp (that does the switching confirmed the lack of audio from the TiVo. Tuner audio off the TV was fine.
Shorten version;
I decided to use the 'Restart the TiVo', but I lost the video during the re-boot process, no 'almost there message'. Going into DefCon 1 mode, I pull the power cable, waited, then powered back up, still with no A/V so I checked connections (I use a HDMI splitter) disconnected that and plugged back in and video returned, so did audio.
I went into Recordings and all of them were gone, even the ones listed in the deleted tab.
I checked the One Pass list and all the scheduled programs were still there, nothing erased.
No error lights on the front panel, the power light was lit all the time. It was close to the hour with 3 programs scheduled to record. None of them started. I had to manually 'record' them in spite of still being in the list.
I checked the System info and all looked ok. Up to date Guide data, correct time, correct Lifetime entries etc.
Questions;
Regarding that last deal, was it because it was so close to start record time the system didn't recognize to record those programs?
The loss of recordings, could that be because of the 'double' restart (for lack of a better term), interrupting the initial restart process by pulling the power?
