On demand programmes ‘scheduled’ but not downloading.
|
|
Anyone had this with there Sky + HD?? Four programmes I’ve tried to download. All on On Demand and all 4 are showing as scheduled. Nothing is currently downloading.
Have deleted everything in the deleted folder and have taken the plug out the wall for a couple minutes. Nothings worked. And yes I’ve wiped my dick on the screen.

This may sound daft but do you have a micro filter attached to your telephone line? if so change it if you have tried all the options given to you by others or its time to call Sky and an engineer visit but be prepared for a knackered hard drive in the box where you'll lose all your recordings and downloads when a replacement box is the only option. If this happens resist going over to Sky Q don't fall for the we only fit Q boxes now as I spoke to an engineer last year who said they can still fit the boxes if you're a pissed off Q customer and want to go back to the + box, in your case you can buy + boxes legally from eBay.

Used the power line option and it immediately worked... but only for the first recording.
The others are still lined up as ‘scheduled’ and nothing’s downloading!

Sounds to me like the internal wifi is faulty, the way you can test this is by going into the installer menu (0 0 1 Select ) and then selecting ‘New installation. ‘
If the Callback doesn’t go through, it’s defiantly had it.
If it does, it’s an account problem, and you’ll need to call Sky.
If the box needs replacing, you’ll lose your recordings, otherwise, use a wireless / power line option as stated below.

Does your Sky Box have WiFi built in (WPS button on front panel) or are you using a Wireless Connector ?

Get one of these: Plug one end into the router the other in to the plug socket nearest the sky box. Bingo - wired ethernet.

Hi Danny,
When you click on them it should tell you what it will do. It's been a while since I had a + box so be careful, I'm sure one of the resets just resets the box, it doesn't wipe.
Have you considered a plug in WiFi booster if your router is some distance away? You could contact Sky but they'll try and get you to move onto Sky Q which would mean you wouldn't have access to recordings or downloads on the + box.

Tried the Sky Forum?
Solved an issue for me with Sky, a while ago.

Really don’t want to wipe the planner. There’s stuff on there that’s no longer gettable. Sadly, there’s too much distance between router and sky box to run an ethernet cable...just totally baffled as everything has always downloaded fine. Will try wiping my knob on it again.

Re: On demand programmes ‘scheduled’ but not downloading.

The two options he is referring to is..
System restore - which defrags the Hard Drive
Full system reset - Wipes everything.
If you can sacrifice your recordings, try a Full system reset, however I think there is an issue with your Network card.
Another way to test it is to try ‘New installation’ which is in the hidden menu.
Is there anyway you can run an Ethernet cable between Sky box and Router?

Moose: done the 001 thing. But lost with your option 7 or 8 comment? There are no numbered options......there is a ‘system reset’ or a ‘set up’ and several other choices?
Obviously don’t want to wipe my planner if possible!!

Mallard, to answer your other question no. I can’t download from bbc iPlayer either. It’s all happened in the last day or so. Downloaded all of the latest Luther about 4/5 days back

Danny,
Go into the engineer settings for the + box
Press the ‘Sky’ button
Press ‘Services’ button on the remote
Press ‘001’ and then ‘Select’
Then option 7 or 8 (whichever one doesn't wipe the box)
Also do a hard reboot of your router (basically unplug it then plug it back in).
Then give it a go.

Are you trying to download an entire series? If you are, the box only downloads 2 episodes to start with. Once you start watching episode 1, episode 3 will start downloading. Then when you start watching episode 2, ep4 will download and so on.

Re: On demand programmes ‘scheduled’ but not downloading.

Mallard, I have the full shebang. Sky plus HD. I’ve downloaded and watched the first three series of ‘Two Doors Down’...it’s just not allowing me to carry on watching. Same with anything else on On Demand. They just line up, all saying “scheduled” but nothing actually downloading. First time it’s happened so something’s fucked
