    I've just sat and watched most the LA card from last night, mainly to rewatch the Linares-DeMarco fight.

    However I'm wondering if anyone had a similar problem to what I had...mid way through the first round of Dawson-Hopkins the ****ing recording came up saying that the programme had ended so I never got to watch the end of the fight.

    anyone else who recorded it have this issue?

    I had plenty of memory left on my Sky Planner.

    Yes, about less than a minute to go in the first round of the Hopkins fight and the ****in thing ended. I was told by others to record the programme after to try and avoid this and I tried this but there was no programme after the boxing to record. Sky+ is ****, they need to sort that out.

    My sky+ recorded 241 mins of the Bhop card and it ended with about 40 seconds left to go in the first round of the Bhop-Dawson fight

    Manual Recording for all the fights is the best thing to do. I usually add 45 minutes to the original scheduled planner programme.

    i knew this was going to happen at about 4am. i stayed up all night but was thinking of calling it a night at 4 so put it on record and saw that the programme ended at 5 with the demarco fight just strarting now. i tried to record the thing after but it never let me so had to see out the next hour and see the fight.

    similar things have happened with sky when the fight card over runs the show programme, i think it happened for pac vs margo or shane too.
