Hi prpr, I didn't run e2fsck to completion as it was taking 6 hours to do less than 2% ot the 1TB drive. I'm not IT literate enough to attach the drive to a PC running Linus to fix the filesystem, but may be able to boot my MacBook Pro into Ubuntu and do it from there, if I can find a tutorial –...

Hi there, thanks for all your help. More problems this week, I'm afraid. My HD says it is recording when I press the recording button, but it isn't. Have tried to trigger recordings from the WebIF (with a reboot) but this doesn't work either. The delete asterisk was stuck on screen for ages, so...

Thank you. It's Western Digital 1TB disk. As the box works brilliantly for recording and streaming purposes I'm going to ignore iPlayer for now and resort to using the Chromecast. Funnily enough I bought my father in law the same set-up and his iPlayer works well. He's on an earlier version of...

Hi prpr, I've been running this for about 6 hours and only about 1% of the disc has been checked so far. Does this seem like a lot of errors? I expected it to complete fairly quickly! (How long is a piece of string? I know!) Good news, though – I was experiencing drop outs in recordings but that...

Hi Martin, it's 1.03.02 overwritten with the latest custom version – 1.03.02 (mod 3.10). Version 7.27 comes up on-screen when I boot. The system version is described as KZTFT 1.03.02 in System Information, with an update date of 14 Nov 2014. (Mimcom version is 7.61.) It's possible I may have...

Thank you. Sorry for posting the errors. Oops! My iPlayer still crashes 100% of the time, but I can boot into HDR mode and it works perfectly from there. (Although scheduled recording won't work while I have that mode activated.) I'll correct all the errors and see if iPlayer works again. If...

Hi prpr, my mistake! The unit went into maintenance mode, but the video froze as the sound continued. I assumed it had crashed but the console-type shell appeared in the browser and I was able to run the cli command. (Util is displayed on the front panel.) Here is what it's telling me. I'm...

Thanks to everyone for their help – assignhd has in fact fixed it! Tried to restart it in maintenance mode, but the box crashed on start-up three times, so I couldn't. Hopefully iPlayer now works, but I may be back for your advice if not. Thanks again. What a brilliant community!

Thank you both for your expert advice. What a fantastically supportive community. I'll try that as soon as I get home tonight. I was wondering, if my iPlayer still isn't working, that a RTM factory reset might help. Would that mean my box wouldn't recognise my hard drive again? If so, I guess I...

Hello everyone. I haven't posted for about 4 years as my HD Fox T2 was working perfectly. Recently my iPlayer from the HD Fox T2 portal began crashing every time I tried to start a programme and became unusable. I ran the system flush software and reinstalled the CFW, but while I can play...

Thank you. I have installed this and activated it. I copied my radio shows to the virtual disc and this process de-encrypted it. I copied these files to my Mac over the network via the Web interface and they play, but I can't see an option on the menus for 'save to mp3'. (Is there an option to...

Thanks both for your fantastic advice. God, you know your stuff! So, how do I put my HD Fox into HDR Mode then? To have 'create an MP3' in the OPT+ list would be a godsend. I see it's part of the latest version of webif. I wondered why I couldn't see it. This will be the final part of the...

Thank you so much. Easy as pie. Here's what you do on a Mac. Simply open Terminal. Type "Telnet" then the IP address of the Humax box. This brings up the Humax# command prompt. Then I followed your instructions. Brilliant! To close the session, hold Control and ] and then type quit and...

Hello there. I've forgotten my webif password on a Mac running Lion. Can you give me step by step instructions on how to get it back or to access the Humax box by Telnet? Many thanks
