quick update - uninstalled disable OTA and the boot settings package and reinstalled them both.... and machine seems to be functioning and behaving normally again (has done for last 2 or 3 weeks) so, touch wood, all seems now to be OK A big thank you to everyone for the help, good advice and...

managed to have the unit started manually and looking at the auto-power-down in setup.db it is at 0 ....which I believe means not enabled

Thank you Black Hole and prpr. As I'm unable to access remotely and I'm away from home I will pick things up when I return. By the way, the Onlyeason asked af123 specifically

I'm overseas guys and it's already 1.00am ....need to rest so will resume tomorrow. Quick question for af123 .....is the setting for auto-power-down on the box itself? if so then I will not be able to check until back in the UK at the weekend. In the meantime, thank you again 'one and all' for...

just reading the replies....thanks guys for taking the time. I actually don't mind so much it being on the BBC Red Button channel but (having thought about it a bit more) it's the fact that it then becomes unavailable on the network which I think (probably wrongly by the sound of things) that...

Thank you Luke - I am looking into your suggestions now

Hi everyone Trying to figure out why my Humax HDR-Fox T2 (with latest CF) always reverts to BBC Red Button despite in the settings I have selected (in settings for boot-settings package) BBC1. When it's left in the evening it will be on whatever channel I was watching (for example C4) but the...

Thank you 'all' for the terrific on-going support. I have been experiment recently with various Wi-Fi dongles v Ethernet (via a repeater) and the more I think about it the more I am now convinced that this is mostly down to network/internet issues ......however, resolving it and also retaining...

thank you Trev, that is another good suggestion and I have my suspicions that it could be network (or wireless dongle) related....it's on my radar I installed crashdaig as suggested but I can't see anywhere obvious in the diagnostics page where the results should be displayed?

Thank you Black Hole By often it can be 7 or 8 times a day (as the PDF attachment shows yesterday for example) but It never used to......it would occasionally (every few days week) but never this often. Thank you af123 I will now install crashdiag, reboot and post here for review when it next...

Hello everyone....I'm appealing for a little bit of help, I searched and read the forum posts but couldn't find exactly my issue but do please forgive me and guide me if I've missed it. Basically, for quite some time now, my HDR Fox T2 is crashing randomly but often. The red warning states...

thanks for the good advice MymsMan

Followed the advice of black hole I.e. full manual retune and all seems good again. Many thanks!

Hi all Looking for some help and guidance from you clever chaps in the forum I recently retuned my HDR Fox2T in order to be able to get 5HD Previously everything was generally OK with my set up Ever since this retune virtually all of my recordings have glitches where the picture breaks up for...

That's done the trick.....thank you af123 and all the others for the usual 'top notch' support.
