Is MyStuff still running, or has it gone back to the standard Toppy interface?

When you say that you switched it on and off, was that via the remote or the mains?

Reading between the posts, it appears that you had a problem and restarting the toppy has not fixed it.

As Andy says, did you restart it using the remote or did you power it off, wait 20 secs and power it on at the mains?

Suggest you post a current MyInfo log.

Are you getting frequent of "Verifying File and Folders" messages?
Did you change anything on the toppy shortly before these events occurred?

MyStuff must keep information about partially watched recordings somewhere.
I thought this info was stored as a bookmark in the header of a recording (in which case it wouldn't make sense that that the restart points for all recordings had been forgotten). However, if MyStuff stores this info in a single file then this could be lost if the file is wiped. I don't think it is stored in MyStuff_RecordedInfo.dat but, if it was and this file was deleted or became corrupted, then this info would be lost when MS rebuilt the file.

I'm assuming that all the capacitors on the PSU have all been replaced.

switched off at mains last night, turned on this morning sound back but the recordings the same.
psu been sorted couple of years ago, i have got some psu that need checking.
i have 3 toppys 2 5800 and 1 5810 from the days i worked shifts always recording
The one we use the most is a5800
it does a file thing when we are going up or down the guide fast, it happens 2 or 3 time a month other than that its a great machine
only thing thats change is the tv no analog input apart from the red yellow white conectors. there is only 3 hdmi ports 1 i use for cctv

Your 5810 has HDMI.
