Thanks to everyone who replied, I've downloaded Foxy and will see how I get on. Your replies have certainly helped sort out my questions, much appreciated. Hope the replacement HDR Fox-T2 doesn't have the same problem in the future, but at least I now know what to do to save my recordings! :) Mal

My Humax isn't networked, which I'm presuming it would have to be to FTP the files. If I do this by copying to USB, is this the correct process: 1. copy HD files from Humax F/V HDR to USB drive 2. copy the files from USB drive to my PC, use Foxy to modify them 3. copy modified files back to...

Hi! I have a Humax HDR Fox-T2 1Tb (11 months old), and it's recently been having problems when playing back both HD and SD recordings (skipping/breaking up/black screen followed by "channel scrambled or unavailable" message). I tried resets, power cycles etc., but nothing worked, so I rang PC...

Hi, back again. I watched more recordings over the weekend, and found some video stuttering issues, rather than pixellating. The video playback sort of jerks a bit, for milliseconds only, and then continues normally. It happened a couple of times during a half hour recording, and it did repeat...

Sorry, I don't know, I deleted the recording I watched last night before I could check that out. I'll do some more recording over the weekend to see if it happens again, and if it repeats each time I play it. Thanks for your help! :)

Hi! Output is 1080p, and my Hummy is connected via HDMI cable. TV is an LG42LW65 full HD 3D LCD. The pixellation happens when there is any sort of fast movement on the screen, it's very fleeting, just a bit blurry. Not noticed this when just watching TV or when watching recordings on my Toppy...

That's odd, I emailed them a few days ago and this was their reply on 21st February: Dear Sir, You do not need to register the product. You will need the proof of purchase to show that the unit is in warranty. Regards, Mark White P.S. Just been to the Warranty Registration page and...

Hi! I've only had my machine a week but have noticed that there seems to be some pixellation on playback of recorded programmes. It happens when there is fast movement on the screen, and I'm not sure if it's the Hummy or the tv, a three month old LG HD 42". However, I don't notice anything like...

Hi! Just got a new HTR-Fox T2 and I can't find any registration card in the box, nor does there seem to be an option to register new products on the Humax website. I've got used to registering online for most electronic items I've bought in the last few years. All I have is the receipt from PC...

Hi! Just to let you know that I've managed to format my USB drive using a program called FAT32Formatter which can be found here: http://tokiwa.qee.jp/EN/Fat32Formatter/index.html It was a bit hit and miss getting the program to do the format, but it did it in the end. I've just copied a video...

This is the first Hummy I've owned (I have a 5 year old Toppy), and I've only had it for two days, so I've not yet looked into the custom firmware. Does it negate the 2 year warranty? I wouldn't want to do that at this early stage if it does, but will check it out. My thoughts at the moment...

Thanks, that's what I found too! I tried the DOS option, but though it seemed to be formatting the drive, a message then came up that the drive was too large (it's 120Gb), and it wasn't actually formatted. Also tried SwissKnife but it doesn't give me the option to format the drive when it's...

Thanks for your reply regarding formatting on my computer. I'm running XP and the only options for formatting are NTFS and exFAT, not FAT32. I understand that this is because the drive is over 32Gb in size (it's 120Gb), so I had a look online and downloaded SwissKnife, but this doesn't give me...

Thanks for the excellent reply! I've just tried it again and this time a message appeared on the tv screen telling me that my HD is NTFS and therefore it can't be copied to. So, as I've only got a few files on there (which can be copied back from my computer), what's the best way to format the...

Hi everyone! This is my first post, I only got my HDR-Fox 1Tb yesterday. I had hoped to be able to copy recorded programmes to a USB connected memory stick or HDD to watch on my laptop, but from reading some of the threads on this forum I can see it's not as easy as that! I have connected an...
