Agreed. The important question is does the caddy provide 12V power for the 3.5" hard drive. There have been problems in the past where people trying to use a caddy didn't understand the need for a 12V supply.

I fully agree, all my mission critical systems are connected to the router with CAT6 cables. Less important systems in awkward positions for cables either use power line adapters or WiFi.

I think that depends on which version of WiFi you are using. I haven't tried WiFi 6 or 7 but I would expect that they would cope.

I think there was a previous discussion about this some time ago. My recollection is that rather than each user being connected to the broadcaster, the content is cached at various hubs and distributed from them. Maybe someone else can confirm.

This is digital TV, the picture quality shouldn't be influenced by the signal strength providing it is neither too high nor too low. I would suggest a signal strength between 50% and 90% will result in the same picture quality.

Yes MyHumax has a Personal Message function.

I have been told that post #104 was passed on to Humax; has there been any improvement on PSB2?

I can confirm that it is a conduit to the broadcasters.

I think they share the same circuit board and the differences are small. The 1800-T has one USB port, the HDR-2000T has two USB ports. The remote controls are different. The 1800-T uses a 2.5" hard drive, the 2000T uses a 3.5" hard drive. The cases are different colours. In summary they are...

I suspect this is a problem with the Humax server; best thing to do with this sort of problem is to wait for a couple of days. You could try contacting Humax support.

It should see the drive and offer to format irrespective of the current format (or lack of format for a brand new disk).

I am now able to make recordings which play without problem from the D3 & D4 multiplex. I have to say that I don't understand what these tables are used for. Do you want me to pass your observations on to Humax?

I can confirm that the problem appears to be fixed on the Chesterfield transmitter.

I have set a recording for the 6:30 pm ITV news. Will report back later. @prpr Can you tell if it is now fixed?
