That's amazing! How did you do that? (I have to admit I've not yet looked for it in https://git.hpkg.tv/ - maybe all will become clear). But that's a remarkable achievement.
I'd never have believed the original poster, but it happens to me too.
Very simple
Turn on TV & PVR
Press the "TV Portal" button....
There it is! The TV portal is now displaying the Humax's built-in homepage.
Try clearing the cache on your browser, quitting the browser and restarting it. I've had cases where the Hummy was actually working fine but my browser (FF) was displaying a stale page.
Just to summarise:
Try swapping the SATA cables
Try swapping the hard drive (maybe for the one from your old PC - though you'll lose the data on it)
If those don't work your box is probably broken. If you were really keen you could - as I did when I had a vaguely similar problem eight years...
https://wiki.hummy.tv/wiki/Which_Version spells it out. You probably want HDR_FOX_T2_1.03.12_mod_3.13.zip - if you wanted any of the other kernels you'd already know. And you'd probably want to revert to HDR-FOXT2_1_03_12.zip if you wanted to back-out the CF. Which you won't.
I've noticed that happens with mine. It detects a bad sector, adds it to the pending list, but on retest/rewrite decides it is OK and restores it to use. I'd rather it didn't and kept it out of use. But I guess that's a decision the hard drive manufacturer made.
How does this manifest itself with respect to recordings etc? Does this mean all our recordings this week will be an hour out? And can we somehow frig the timezone this week (only) to tide us over?
By which I mean.... could we change the TZ environment variable before the Humax software starts...
I'd not looked at the git until now. And useful instructions too - https://wiki.hummy.tv/wiki/Create_Packages
Are there any instructions for building the CF itself? Granted that its difficult to imagine a reason for needing to do so; it might be more for educational reasons.
What are you using to play the exported video on the laptop? I normally use VLC and consider that if VLC can't play it, the file really is broken.
I assume you're playing the .ts file? Playing anything via DLNA can be a bit variable, though VLC usually manages OK with that too.
Can't help...
I think the OP might mean this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.humaxdigital.mobile.remotephone
I never got that to work - I'm not sure it supports the T2.
Actually for downloading BBC content onto your PC (to then transfer to your Hummy) I'd recommend get_iplayer: https://github.com/get-iplayer/get_iplayer
