Stalled TV downloads

[Alan Milewczyk]

Is anyone else having problems with stalled TV downloads?

I use a batch file which is fired off at specific times of the day to 
download TV programmes. The batch file reads a text file which contains 
the list of programme names/PIDs to be downloaded - I set up the text 
file daily in advance (or a few days ahead if I'm not going to be around 
to check the results).

I've been doing this for a long time now without problems, but the last 
3 or 4 weeks I've been having occasional problems where the download 
will stall partway through a programme, which then screws up successive 
downloads. This first manifested itself when I was on my journey from 
the UK to the Philippines which meant I had some sorting out to do 
(accessing my UK PC remotely from the Philippines). Since then it seems 
to hiccup every 2 or 3 days or so. Only TV downloads are affected. 
Nothing has changed at my end, so I'm a bit puzzled and I'm wondering 
whether anyone has had this experience?

Thanks

Alan
