Where I live we get power failures.
After a failure the 7020 reboots, but not to the same channel that it was on.........../images/smiley/angry.gif
It selects a default channel, always the same one.
As I leave it on for unattended recording I need to get the current channel after a failure.
Any ideas?

What's the recording worth if a large chunk is missing due to a power failure? Maybe you should invest in a small UPS? 
On a serious note: enigma saves the config only when you do a proper shutdown. While running it keeps the config in memory. So when you have a power failure, you lose all changes, not only the currently selected channel. Unfortunately, this is by design.

Due to my bad health, I will not be very active at times and may be slow to respond. I will not read the forum or PM on a regular basis.

you can set a certain channel to be the default, with the menu button in the servicelist.

Doesn't the dreambox continue a scheduled recording after if it suffered a power failure? It does on my dreambox.

That is what I would expect, but it does not seem to happen........
All my watching is timeshifted, by up to a week, so recovery is important,
even if I do loose a few minutes.
Any good sw should protect its data by saving on a regular basis.
PS I found the latest release Oct 08 on this site, but that does not seem to have helped.
The release on Dream4U is dated July 08

That sounds more like a bug than a feature :bah:On a serious note: enigma saves the config only when you do a propershutdown. While running it keeps the config in memory. So when you havea power failure, you lose all changes, not only the currently selected channel

Thanks for that tip.
The default can also be RESET here and that may have cured the problem. /images/smiley/smile.gif
Will check over the next few days.
