Fingers crossed, its third time lucky. We decided not to risk a problematic batch/design change from Jown Lewis so in parallel, bought a unit from Argos - as a 2yr warranty is supplied with the unit, the JL 2yr warranty was unnecessary. The Argos unit is clearly an older unit as it was...

Thanks.

If anyone else is suffering the same, see image for how to check for the problem. This relates to the unit automatically coming out of standby (not tried recording a program from standby but certainly affects the auto power on setting having been in standby for more than a few minutes - short...

Humax support suggested a reset and hard disc reformat. Didn't sort the problem so guess its another 1hr special trip to return the unit. I did a HDD test prior to reformat and no errors were reported. Its really concerning that two units exhibit same issue yet Humax effectively put it down to...

Replacement unit, first on suffered the same and replaced. 500GB unit. We auto shutdown at 1am and auto power up at 6am. After this, no functions relating to hard drive are available. Needs a manual standby cycle to recover. Common issue or will it be third time lucky if we get unit...

Oh dear. Image pixellation problem gone with this new unit, but like original, this one is suffering with the hard drive being lost after auto power on. It requires manual standby/power on to recover. Disappointing, an inconvenience for us but we share the box with the inlaws who will want...

Having suffered disc access issues (calling up any function that accessed hard drive was simply ignored) that would only clear by going into standby and back, it looked more and more like we had a sick 2000t. So today it was exchanged and a few hours after setup, noone has notic d any picture...

Having tried to watch a prigram on C4 that was often unwatchable, ive decided that it will be best to return. Example from TV. Both same section C4. No evidence of a source of interference. Link to recorded video from hdr-2000t https: // www. dropbox.com /s/5mfh0he8bxxj2qz...

Yet the 9200 has been near perfect for best part of 10 years, and 2000t glitched from start. Sounds like 2000t is simply not as good at handling interference as the older 9200t. It was just hopefully poor timing that there were jet skis (one looked like he had engine issues as he returned...

Thanks Luke, shame. Not too bad this morning, and watchable, but marine traffic isn't like it was last night when probably interference from jet ski engines. Signal path - out of communal ariel socket in wall, reasonably specced digital coax to 2000t, out of back of 2000t, generic coax to...

The 88/92% was signal strength. As i say, the 9200 copes with the 80% blips in quality with no visible or audble defects, whilst 2000t results in highly noticible pixellation, stutters and audio dropouts. Our 2000t unit is clearly inferior to the 9200t in this regard and i just want to know if...

long term pvr-9200t and hdr-2000t in multiple locations. Just purchased another 2000t to replace an ageing 9200t but suffering occasional interference on multiple channels (not all). Are there any max recommended signal strength limits for 2000t. We are running 88/92% (ch24) strength from I...
