Oh I'm starting to doubt if I did try the FAT32 now. I thought that was what I selected the first time I did it. Note to everyone else: try FAT32 first. Either way, it's all good fun. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I guess that's the trouble with CF. It lets people like me think they know what they are doing (when they haven't really got a clue). My win7 machine didn't have an option for FAT. It just had exFAT or FAT32. I tried the FAT32 first and the Humax wouldn't recognise it at all. I'm surprised the...

I've finally got it to work but there still seems to be a mounting problem somewhere that the HD doesn't like. In the end I had to start again as my first try was a bit of a Frankenstein install. This is what I found worked. 1. CF was already installed on the HD Fox T2 (1.02.29_mod_2.21). 2...

Doing that I get these errors Collected errors: * extract_archive: Cannot create symlink from var/mongoose to '../webif': File exists. * file_md5sum_alloc: Failed to open file /mod/var/mongoose/html/css/EXTRA.css: No such file or directory. * file_md5sum_alloc: Failed to open file...

Ok I managed to format the UPD on the HD Fox T2 and add it as the drive for recording. I then managed to install the rest of the CF via the webif page. I then rebooted but just get the directory tree. Reinstalled the CF but still the same. So I decided to copy everything from the old hard drive...

Hehe. I like the way a UPD has regressed (or progressed) into a USB pen stick drive thingy. I may need to lengthen that description sometime in the future. Sorry Black Hole (BH), your technical advice/knowledge is second to none. But I do hate TLA's (three letter acronyms) even if I do...

You guys make me laugh. I've ordered a whopping 64gb UPD drive stick pen thingy and will plug it in to the USB plug hole thingy and see if it makes a difference. Phew that was technical. Sent from my telephone using an application.

Oh yeah that would make sense. I have the CF on a small usb hard drive that's a few years old now. Think I'll buy a cheap pen drive tomorrow and see if it makes any difference. I don't really record much on the HD so it doesn't need to be as big as my current drive. Sent from my iPad using...

Hello I have a HD and an HDR both connected to a synology nas via CAT6 cable. I have the network shares package on both Humax machines pointing via samba to the same folder on the nas. The nas says they are both connected ok. This used to work fine until I updated the CF a while ago. The HDR...

Oh fantastic and thanks for the prompt reply. Now I think back I think that was probably the setup I had before I installed virtual-disk2. I had a USB stick plugged in the back just for the network shares. Can I ask what a UPD is? I've never heard of that? Sent from my telephone using an...

Hi Every time my box starts up I get the annoying media selection icons on the screen. They stay for ages unless you cancel them. Is there a way to stop this? I don't have a usb plugged in so it's the custom firmware virtual usb thingy causing it. If I could override the format selection...
