Comment (by jksj461):

 I have  been using this feature with a Digibit R1 for 10 months now and
 the performance is still excellent. I use all 4 sources and can
 successfully record 5 HD channels.

 In the last 5 weeks there have been 247 recordings.

 Of these 237 are marked as good. They have an average packet loss < 1 most
 recordings showing 0 worst case 15.

 Of the 10 damaged recordings they occur at two instances in the 5 week
 period when the Digibit got tired.

 Probably had gone too long between resets (was being done weekly).

 An indicator of the Digibit box getting tired is that all 4 tuner lights
 are not lit.
 I note from your comments above that a tuner is never closed once
 initialised.
 So should all 4 lights stay on?
 I have seen them go out after recordings finished but the box continues to
 work.
 I am now testing power cycling the Digibit daily to see if that resolves
 the issue.

 Do you think a daily power cycle is the best approach.

 I know the web interface allows the user to reset it but I am looking for
 something I can automate.
