I take a long weekend holiday to come back to discover two more pages of comments! But then I notice they are almost all about something called vee-aye :alien: (I am an Emacs guy -- young'uns may need to see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Editor_war -- I started with Gosling Emacs in about...

I have been trying to see if I can relate any of the other information in EN 300 468 to hmt fields... Genre codes. The codes in section 6.2.9 seem similar to those we know about in the hmt (although all the codes we have seen have 0 in the level 2 nibble). ISO 639 language codes. The "eng"...

Ah. I was prompted by raydon's reply to look into DVB text encodings further. This seems to be the format described in ETSI EN 300 468 Annex A.2 (http://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_en/300400_300499/300468/01.14.01_60/en_300468v011401p.pdf) -- although that seems to be the latest version on the...

Apologies to af123, I misunderstood. Thanks to both of you.

I assume the FTP server password changes if you change the box password (although I don't know). But I don't think many people run an intrusion detection system on their home network to detect someone trying all 10,000 four digit passwords, which would probably take less than a couple of hours...

Thanks. It would be nice to be working with a copy of the D-Book to hand! By the way, I assume the 10 69 37 at the start of the text is some sort of code page/encoding indicator for the following text (possibly specifying ISO/IEC 6937?). Does anyone know if that is right? And, if so, how to...

Hmm. 0x0100 => "General guidance on", # Suitable for pre-watershed I think this is actually: 0x0001 => "General guidance on", # Suitable for pre-watershed I have one .hmt file with the value 1 in that 16-bit field (and text "Contains mild language"). I am guessing this is a...

Good suggestion, Ezra. Done.

Just for the record in case anyone is wondering about doing this with DLNA... DLNA is very hard to get to work remotely (it is designed to only work on the same LAN). My ssdp-fake program can make a remote DLNA server appear to be on the local LAN. But, in practice, there are a number of...

Unfortunately the source for the original hmt is not available. So, I have created my own, open source, version which I can update, and which can display local files or files accessed remotely using ftp. See www.cobb.uk.net/humax.html It is written in perl and it runs on Linux. If someone...

Unfortunately, no Telnet on the HDR-2000T. At least as far as I know?

Do we (the community) know what any of the other fields in the .hmt file are? All I have found when searching, so far, has been the Enc flag. And not even any description of the meanings of the other values of that field (I have seen 0 and 2). But I am hopeful that there is a list somewhere I...

Thanks for the info. The question, as you go on to say, is how to force that re-index. I have been looking for a way which can be done remotely, just with FTP access. I have found one reliable way: rename the files associated with the recording (not renaming the recording itself, just the...

Sort of. I haven't replied to that thread (yet) because I wanted to get some more testing before encouraging people to start using it routinely. It works for me but I only have about 5 programmes on my Humax so far! humax-unenc-ftp does do what that thread asks for (I think), except that it...

I have only recently acquired a Humax PVR (HDR-2000T) so I am new to this community (I am a long-time Tivo hacker, and still am). In the week I have had it, I have found I needed to create a few utilities to run on my home systems to get the most out of the Humax. The current tools are...
