Why? Ah, do they have .0.log, .1.log, .2.log? Attaching files allows .txt and zip. You can either rename the log file to .txt, or you can zip it.

That's just the WebIF alerting you of a change in the reallocated sector count since last acknowledged, so I wouldn't worry about that. You should be more interested in the report from fix-disk, and the output from HDD diagnostics (SMART stats). WebIF >> Diagnostics >> Disk Diagnostics Show...

That's what I'm quibbling about. If a SATA controller isn't "gen1" compatible, it's not a case of detection – it simply won't fall back to gen1. There's no decision making involved.

External drives?? As an external drive, you would be operating it via a USB to SATA interface. The Humax hardware/firmware is therefore insulated from any vagaries in the SATA implementation. It's not a question of "allowing", it just doesn't work on the internal SATA.

Silver tarnishes, gold doesn't. Plenty of connectors are easily available with gold plating, just not the kind of switch I need. I agree it would be subject to wear with cycling, but this is not going to be cycled much. Far more important to have a non-tarnishing surface, as we always did for...

Yes. It broke on my iPad Safari until I (reluctantly, for other reasons) updated iPadOS, and they changed the UI... but I bookmark directly to my "unpublished" gallery so I avoid most of the social media stuff. (Other forums I use won't host images.)

Anybody know anything about it / can do it? I have some rotary switches with silver contacts (can't get anything else in low quantity) and I want to increase their reliability. I've seen videos about how it can be done, but the chemicals are expensive for a tiny one-off job (and kits...

What OS are you using? It almost certainly has a built-in Telnet client that might just need enabling, no need for PuTTY. You find Imgur easier to use than direct attachment??? Eek. The only reason I can think of is you don't have to worry about the file size.

I downloaded and installed PuTTY on one of my machines only yesterday, so I don't know what you're doing wrong... you need the x86 .msi installer file (32-bit should work even on 64-bit), then running it will install the executables etc. I'm pretty sure that's where I got it from. Your...

Just don't let it access the network except for your PVR functions... or more to the point don't let the network access it.

Sounds to me like it needs a good clean up! Have you done all the normal stuff, eg fix-flash-packages and fixdisk? Or even just a simple reboot?? One of the points of having CF is to be able to maintain the HDR-FOX with more comprehensive tools than Humax provide as standard, but if you're...

Watching repeats of game shows is only marginally better than watching repeats of sporting events. Once the outcome is known, it seems Pointless.

It's only there if you've installed the undelete package. Which is why:

I *think* it's normal for manual decrypt to save a backup of the original, so I don't know why it wouldn't be doing that now. However, it's possible the setting for auto-processing has some influence, even for manual operations: WebIF >> Settings >> Auto-Processing Settings >> Create backup...

By not quoting the post, nor tagging @JimB, you've done nothing to alert him to your query (don't worry, I've done it for you).
