As I've been doing this again recently to clear out some space, ready for Christmas, I'd thought I'd update this thread with my process and tips. I can now get the USB drive (a WD Passport Ultra with no option for external psu and no available updated firmware) to work all the time by following...

Thanks Black Hole will step through and see how far I get. Ezra Pound - it's not networked at the moment at all, so I'll only hook it up to our hub via Ethernet if I can access it remotely. It's a total pain - first problem we've ever had with it.

500GB Fox T2 HDR is constantly rebooting when powered on, started a few days ago. I have the same problem as here, but it doesn't stay on long enough to do anything useful with it: http://hummy.tv/forum/threads/hdr-fox-t2-constantly-rebooting.4952/ So I can't even get into the menus (to...

Solved! Yes, as suspected it was the router, and the brilliant people at Zen (our flawless ISP), found it was a setting in the router (an old, but very, stable Speedtouch 546) which was intercepting all web traffic, disabled in the Config pages - and instantly iPlayer now works on the Humax and...

Hi all, it must be since iPlayer has been updated as I've also tested it on one of our other "smart TVs" and get exactly the same issue, so it's definitely not down to the Humax or the update as suggested in my first post. Timing was just coincidental. Must be a router thing, as it's absolutely...

Hmmm, definitely not working here. I wonder if they've changed some port settings or something in iPlayer or the update which our router is blocking and wasn't required before? All working fine under Windows and OS X, but not on the Humax... Will investigate further... Odd that the other apps...

We only use BBC iPlayer occasionally on our HDR-Fox T2, but tried last night and it appears dead... The TV Portal loads fine, internet connection all working (YouTube, Wiki etc all load with content). But iPlayer loads showing "cannot display programme information", all the navigation buttons...

That's exactly what happened, totally unresponsive standby. Flashed the firmware on the drive too as suggested. I guess a better approach would be for me to put a custom firmware on the Humax so it can read and write NTFS, but always been a little apprehensive about that, so this is a working...

Seems to working in the main, I followed Montys advice accessing via a PC and then tried again and all was fine. I don't think it's a power issue, as had it running all night with a massive set of copies and all was fine. However when left overnight and powering the Humax off (whilst leaving a...

Thanks MontysEvilTwin, I'll give it a go this afternoon and see what happens!

We bought a WD My Passport 1TB drive for extra storage. Oowered on the Humax, plugged it in, formatted it from the Menus (no option for format type so I assumed it reformatted to EXT3 as copies worked fine after reformat). Copied a load of recordings to it over a couple of hours, all fine...
