Deleted Recordings

[Alex242]

Why I'm deleting recordings out of Recordings/Manage/Deleted, the option to 'Delete' is shown consistently until I get to the last few recordings and then it jumps to 'Undelete'. Why is this? Until I realised what was happening I was accidentally undeleting recordings - but now know to watch out for it. Just wondered if this happens to other people too or if it's just something wrong with my SkyQ box.

Nothing wrong with your Q box @Alex242 .

It's normal (but undesirable ) behaviour 

Delete forever stay for the first few items but reverts to Undelete.

You don't need to delete them - they will delete themselves if space is needed.

The only reason to go into there is to undelete...

Thank you!

Thanks I read that, but don't think my OCD would allow it lol.  Means I'd need to be up at 100% hoping Sky would keep deleting old recordings to make way for new. Too stressful! 😂
