We might have some very decent tree surgeons here! I have the remote working now, but it could be a combination of things that have helped. 1. It's been powered off for about 1 week 2. I did have a switchbot hub mini set up 3. There was 1 other remote control in line of the Humax. I have...

Please can someone link me to a suitable capacitor I can order for this please? UK based.

Huge thanks to everyone for their input on this - it's really appreciate, and very interesting to read the developing thoughts. I'm not going to have time to look in to this for a while, so will pick it up probably next week or so. I'm considering trying out replacing the cap first as that...

Thanks, I'll take a look, although like you say I need to 100% confirm the issue first of all. I'm in west Norfolk, if anyone local happens to be able to help Cheers, that's useful, I'll bear it in mind Good point about the blockage. I have previously checked that the TV receives IR ok as...

Ok thanks a lot! Not sure I know anyone with a Humax remote to borrow from, however is it possible to replace the IR sensor in the unit? Thinking about it, the remote does seem to have been getting less responsive over the last few years - even after changing batteries - however it could just be...

My Humax RM-F04 remote has (mostly) stopped controlling my HDR-Fox T2. The remote does continue to control my Philips TV. I have replaced the batteries with brand new ones, and tried leaving the remote with the batteries out for 5 mins to see if this helps reset it. I have found if I put the...

My HDR-FOX T2 has had various issues over the last year or so. Some seem to have been resolved, others are getting worse: 1. This is now the main issue - it's constantly losing signal 2. Not booting properly / no picture 3. Freezing Issue 1 – This has been happening on and off for the...

I understand this to be the case - I wonder how ejstubbs is doing it then?

Thanks again for the replies. Actually i think i came across skifta recently and this looked fairly close to what i wanted - i'm just uncertain what i need to be able to stream to my tv. Will Skifta work with a wifi dongle connected to by Humax? It sounds like there might be something that...

Thanks I'm aware i can connect to HDMI, but I'm looking to something more elegant. Ideally i want to create playlists on the fly on my tablet, and have the music stream to my tv - but only showing the 'now playing' song details, not a clone of the tablet display. I'd rather not buy into...

Thanks for the reply and info. I've been enquiring in lots of different forums about this from different angles and wanted to see if the Humax would be a viable piece of the jigsaw. At least i now know it definatley won't do what I want. Short of buying AppleTV or a new TV, I'm struggling...

I'm thinking of buying a dongle for my HDR and an Android tablet. I'd like to be able to stream music and video from my tablet to my TV, using the HDR as a network link between the two as I don't have a smart TV. I understand the HDR is DNLA compatible, but not entirely sure how this might...

Thanks, I have tried pressing the V-Format button, it doesn't appear to make a difference.

I haven't made any changes to the resolution - I think it has been set to 1080p, and working fine until recently. I've used other devices with it at 1080p as well, and worked fine. I can't display anything from the Humax box now to change the resolution.

Thanks all for the help. The firmware update has helped a lot – I’m getting better channels and more relevant regional selections now. However, I seem to be getting another problem now, which I’ll start in another thread…
