Black Hole, I'm sorry if I've upset you by my stupidity. I'm well aware that "Classic FM" is not a screensaver but a digital radio channel. I'm very new to the HDR-Fox and still learning of it's customisation possibilities. I've replaced an ageing Digistream machine which had served me well...

Thanks for the detailed reply. I usually have channel 731 playing while perusing the Guide and, I admit, I haven't installed your app yet! I thought after sending the above message that I should have tried first to see if it might work. I've been very tied up with other things lately, but...

Is it possible to make this stop the screensaver kicking in all together? I find it a pain to be in the Guide, working my way through the Radio Times programming up recordings for the following week, when it starts and I'm back at Now in the guide once again.

Sorry! Is it possible to modify the TV interface at all?

Ah! Thanks for that. I didn't know that WevIF was the interface that you saw on the TV when doing this, I thought it was the Web interface you saw on your computer when going through a web browser. I'll go and suggest it on the WebIF forum. I'm coming from a Digistream background and I'm trying...

I'd like to propose a new sticky thread where people can suggest new addons. I'd like to start it off by suggesting a better progress display when coping programmes to external storage. The word 'Copying' and a rotating graphic is not very useful to show how long this is going to take! I'd...

Quite! All I used to use was the 'Description' line from the .pif~ file, which was pure text and contained all the programme information that was (i presume) sent over the air. As I said, I'd written a Visual Basic program that scanned the directory of copied program files and renamed the .ts...

Yes I followed all the tests in the "Commissioning......" and it passed! On the Digistream the 'Media' screen shows directories containing Series or the programme name for 'singly' recorded programs. Much like the HDR-Fox does. However when I copied the programmes to an external drive each of...

Many thanks for the prompt reply. Yes, I'm very new here and still finding my way around the forums/wiki/etc. I just received my HDR yesterday and after checking it put the latest modded firmware on it. Absolutely love it! However, coming from Digistream there were a few things I miss. The...

I'm sorry if this is the wrong forum to post this but I'm wondering if anyone knows what the format of the .hmt files is that the HDR-Fox saves. It seems to contain details of the associated .ts program. I've just moved from a Digistream recorder that had a .pif file that contained all the...
