Sky+ box has 80% when empty

lemeister

Ever since I got my Sky+ box before christmas, it has only ever shown a max of 80% free disk space, even when empty. Is this normal?

not normal , try a 'planner rebuild' should do the trick
go Services - press 4 system setup, then 4, 0, 1, then select to get the hidden installers menu, then press 7 Sky+ Planner Rebuild

Cheers for that, will the planner rebuild delete all my recordings? Not too worried if it does, but just want to watch them first!

Mossy Monk

yes, it will delete everything

A Planner Rebuild will not delete your recordings, only a Full System Reset will delete recordings and planner entries.

Just to update - done the planner rebuild and it did the trick without deleting anything.

Glad it worked out for you

no harm doing the rebuild every month or so, depending on usage, glad it worked out
