Discussion topic: Over recording

I am having a problem at the moment downloading a full series of something on my sky q 2tb. Mine is tending to over record the program then it just hangs on recording the same episode some times all night. Recording percentage is at 118% til I cancel the recording. This is only just started happening recently anyone have any ideas how to fix without wiping the hard drive. Do I need a new sky q box ?? Always seems to happen in the middle of a series and cannot download that episode no matter how many times I try.

I had that with just the one episode a few weeks back. Just cancel and delete the recording and try again.

Sky Q 2GB 32B106 - HDMI to TV, hard wired to router with WiFi disabled on the Q box
Sky Ultrafast1 FTTP 150Mbps
Sky SR203 router
Samsung S95C 55"

@cookieboy69

Once you've stopped the stuck download make sure you delete it from the Deleted Section of Manage.
