    EPG goes blank

    3.13 to 3.14, but you're talking about native functions of the HDR-FOX so the CF will be irrelevant.

    Missing first 5 minutes of recordings

    My first thoughts are: 1) If you're using Accurate Recording, that relies on the broadcasters "announcing" the current programme (in the data stream) at the right time. It would help if you told us what you are trying to record. 2) Whether you're using Accurate Recording or not, some...

    EPG goes blank

    This seems to me to indicate that the EPG cache isn't retaining data. Anybody concur?

    Full install needed (again)

    ...so then it needs configuring to your liking. Post 3 in my Custom Firmware Guide talks about that.

    HDR-1800T record/playback problems.

    That's rather unfair. I presume you've had this for some time, and now if it's reached end-of-life you think Humax is worse than anything else? Recordings become "scrambled" not because of anything to do with the HDD, but when the unit forgets what its decryption key is. It finds it can't...

    Full install needed (again)

    ...so now go to WebIF >> Settings >> Settings for Tunefix package... Just how much spoon-feeding do you need? Then you might like to look at tunefix-update.

    [youtube-dl] Download files from youtube.com or other video platforms

    The easiest way is to play whatever it is and screen-grab it!

    ITV1 Failed Recordings

    Even the firmware is running in the SoC, so... My point is we don't actually know where the hardware/firmware boundaries are. CRC is irrelevant when incorrect data is injected rather than corrupted in transmission. There is no way to detect a valid data packet contains deliberate errors...

    Full install needed (again)

    It's just a case of being aware what CF packages are available and what they do, as per WebIF >> Package Management (and/or appropriate forum look-ups, eg Index of Package Primary Topics). Even without any of those packages, WebIF >> Scheduled Events automatically backs up the schedule...

    [youtube-dl] Download files from youtube.com or other video platforms

    Try it with another download to confirm the problem is not the specific to the item you are currently trying, but I expect this is just another escalation of the arms race (YouTube putting up another barrier, YTDL devising and releasing another version to overcome it). It would not surprise me...

    ITV1 Failed Recordings

    Do we really know that? So far as I know, it's implemented in the system-on-chip, and it seems to me any function which might be time-critical could equally have at least some hardware preprocessing for accelleration. Is there CRC on the EPG stuff? I doubt it. The transmitted data is...

    Sure, but in hardware?

    @Chris Cain was active on the forum for about 10 days in March and hasn't been seen since, so don't hold your breath.

    If you tried to design something which accounts for and reacts sensibly to every possible invalid input, you would be there for eternity.
