@florca was great to deal with. I look forward to using his Humax to replace mine over the holiday season.

I will not be a nuisance: if @florca is happy to post, it should be their choice (and my pleasure) to PM me.

If this is the case, happy to negotiate something that works for @florca. Are discussions meant to be public on this thread?

Many thanks for doing that. Would you be willing to pass on to me the 2TB one with a fully working remote (mine is broken)? I am south of Edinburgh, so I would need postage, unfortunately. Is this a forum rule, or a helpful suggestion?

It says the following: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 54 Jan 12 2015 /mod/boot/newk.conf I am wondering if the error was before fix-flash-packages did its magic.

And it looks like I am sorted. Many thanks everyone!

For the umpteenth time in so many years, thanks for making time for my queries. Indeed B had its default key. On box B, I pasted in Settings->Advanced Settings->Encryption Key->Custom encryption key the box A key and rebooted box B using the WebIF; it still will not play my test files. Is this...

I have two HDR-Fox T2, connected through a network switch; let's call them A and B. In May B suffered and recovered from a crash. Since that happened, B has the following issues: Recordings on B do not play (though they seem to start, nothing show); the error message is "The channel is...

Thanks Black Hole

It worked. I cannot thank people enough.

Blast from the past. I now have this problem. Can anyone please help me? Thanks. Ah, got it, let me try that.

Just to check in. I used a laptop this time, convinced it to see the USB drive and boot from it and got onto the System Rescue menu. I then tried the default option and the in-memory option and both of them finish with a black screen (no cursor, nothing). I am still to test the desktop (room...
