When I try to record a program from Tivo to the DVD, it begins to record but at the end always has the message "Saving Failed". The only message is "internal error". I have tried several different brands of DVD-R's. It was recording fine previously. The DVD is built into the Humax Tivo unit. Thank you.
tried cleaning the lens--helped about 50% of the time but still have the problem
After the update to 1.15 I had to delete EVERY recording on the unit. After that, any new recordings would burn just fine. However, some have found that same failure even after a hard reboot (repower). Called Humax level-1 support and they suggested a replacement unit so I swapped it out. But I've since learned that TiVo "pushes" a DVD firmware patch (possible supplied by Humax) from 1.08 to 1.15 and that patch is the culprit. That patch is suppose to make the DVD burn at a higher spin rate. After talking with level-2 Humax support they heard of the problem and said "the unit is working as designed", meaning, the DVD drive manufacturer specs say the drive is capable of a faster burn rate. So now I have Humax DTR800 #2 and so-far-so-good, but TiVo hasn't pushed the patch onto the box yet!

exactly same issue...begins to record and very close to the end...saving failed, caused by internal error...
My HUMAX TIVO does exactly the same thing. Starts process- then ends with internal error. Any ideas??? Please help!!! Of course Humax quit making the product.
Me 3. Exact same symptoms. Reboot doesn't work. And previous recorded DVD's by same Humax give me an "incompatability error".
Lately it is not possible anymore to delete recorded material with the Humax Nano. I use two receivers with one hard disk. and both behave in the same way
I recently got a TIVO so that I could record more then two shows at a time which Time Warner can only do 2 at a time. So I got the adapter to go with the TIVO and there is a problem getting all of the channels that I pay for through Time Warner. I have had several phone calls and Technicians to the house. So far they tell me that with the adapter and the Tivo I will not be able to get any of the on demand channels, and on my premium I won't get them all. Seems crazy to me. Can any one shine some light on this for me. Out of my HBO line up I get about Half of them. On my Variety Pass channels I get about one quarter of them if that. HELP. This seems nuts that they are not able to all work if you are paying for them.
