I guess this could be done via a web based media server using the portals web browser. I experimented with using swisscentre on my HD FOX-T2 but ran into resolution issues and mainly time. In theory it would/could be made to work. This would in theory not do exactly what you wanted, but would...

Could we get an updated package on the repo?

I was amazed with the app in the first place, as they want to charge you £10 a month for sky multiroom, and clearly this app allows you to do multiroom (atleast 2 boxes) for free...

Like he said - use FTP instead. There are many FTP clients avalible on the net. I don't think anybody is working on a browser so to speak as there is going to be a major issue with inputting addresses without a keyboard - I think people have tried USB keyboards without much luck FYI the box...

I would hope that at some point we will see a return of the sky player app or something similar, and it would seem that Humax are intending on continuing to in Germany and other places - The test.humaxtvportal.com page seems to be a reflection of what they seem to be advertising as being avalibe...

As the Sky Player seems to have been switched off for some reason, i decided to go back to the portal website, and have a look around to see if there was a new version of the sky player/skygo app on there. Unfortunantly I have not as yet been able to find one, however there are loads of other...

Sky Player has not been officially released for the humax box yet - and it may never be! This version was 'found' after a bit of sniffing around the humax portal test site, and as it seemed to work, a couple of people came up with the idea of trying to get it to work before sky/humax wanted it...

No I hadn't, but i was not doing it directly for this, but so that I could try other things like my media servers PHP based media browsing system etc. I just throught it could be used to help this chap out as well. As for the issues direclty related to this site I'm not even going to try as I...

I was working on a mod for the xtra portal that would allow you to add links yourself onto the spare button. However I too am stuck for time for atleast the next two weeks, and have not done anything more on it for at least the last month or so. The benefit of this would be that people could...

One good thing about the new firmware is that the lack of audio when resuming a networked streamed file seems to have been fixed......

As I recall from other sites human were preparing for the launch of their youview box, and hence the HD-T2 series was going to come to and end in the UK, with the HD going first as the HDR was still selling well, as had a more 'designer look' to it with the HD having a more retro/plastic look...

Another reason not to be cheerful: As its taken 10 months for Humax t come up with these updates, I wonder how long its going to be for them to come up with some more? As for the remote control thing and the auto retune I suspect this has something to do with trying to save costs for the...

The main problem is going to be identifying the streams in the media files, as the extension is no guide to what is actually in the file. Media files are made of streams (usually 2 or more - one video and one audio - but may have more e.g. subtitles etc) inside a container. The extension of the...

I suspect he is after something like popcorn hour have done with their remote control pacge for iOS and android which is basicly a touch screen version of the boxes remote that connects via the network to the box, and hence you can control the box from anywhere you have access to the box via an...

SKy player does only have a limited selection of channels on it (hopefully when/if they ever finish it off they will put more on it) As for Sky SportsF1, - yes the image is not very good, but on my 32 inch Sony screens it is completly watchable. I sus-pect they are never going to let it run...
