Channels DVR version upgrade issue

My Channels DVR has been stuck on version upgrade for over 24 hours now. Tried to kick the upgrade back on by removing and reinstalling the DRV but it has not worked yet.

Version: 2017.08.11.1703
Waiting to upgrade to 2017.09.01.0513…

The upgrade waits until the DVR is not busy. After 24 hours it should force upgrade itself though.

Unchecking and rechecking the DVR box won’t do anything. You can try stopping and starting the DVR app in the NAS interface.
