Percentage Of Space Used Is Stuck At 99%
Our MyBook is attached to a Scientific Atlanta 8300 DVR. We had built up over 1200 recordings on the 8300 and My Book, which displayed as 99% usage. We deleted over 100 programs to free up new space, but the usage % is stuck at 99%. The program count seems accurate, and properly decreases by one for each program deleted. With the usage stuck at 99%, we are unable to record any new programs, even though available is obviously there. Any ideas?
