Why is anyone surprised? Sky is just a second rate broadcaster with plenty of cash to flash around.

BBC are far worse-been watching the Open Golf all weekend and they cant even broadcast it in HD !

I had this problem with a GP overunning so now I add 2 progs on Virgin+. But this time in spite of the rain and the blackout delays I only needed the one. Lucky old me apparently :lol:

Sky+ recorded 280 minutes of action for me so I got to see the whole thing ...

 

No idea why it works for some but not others :blink:

I must of been lucky as well cos it all recorded for me.

Rather than a Sky issue this could be more to do with equipment. I know some Digital TVs and PVRs perform a software check and update at 3AM each day. Has everyone who had this problem used a Sky HD box? it could be that these boxes do a similar check. Might be worth checking with Sky before laying all the blame at their door.
