Given my own feeble memory issues in this thread, and the "me too" responses, maybe that wasn't the best idea in the end lol !!

That is the route I intend to go down, hence my question of if anyone has had any success with any named switch/matrix so I don't take an unecessary gamble !

Presumbly because by going via the TV for sound adds complexity with switching control, and the TV out might lose rhat precious surround. Memory fails me 🙂 lets say first post for a looooong time. Just shows how good the HDR is !

Good idea! That way i don't necessarily need to use ARC and CEC, as am pretty sure amongst all my testing this got confusing for the poor devices My logitech Harmony remote should be able to cope. I need to check if the raw (or decoded) 5.1 is passed from the HDR Freeview HD channels through...

First post I think! Hoping someone can help and/or explain my experience. My HDR is one of the first "horizontal" hardware builds. It has worked absolutely fine with my 2011 Samsung UE40D6530 TV from the time I got them. Earlier this week I upgraded (slightly) my amp to a Yamaha rx-v387...

Yes - had all this on for some years now - great stuff - just didn't have a need for the Portal change :) ...... until now.

I may just do that! Thanks.

I thought about trying that, but as I have no "need" for any extras or tweaks, I thought I would be better just sticking with the stock version.

Just us two then - mine is still the same. It's not brilliant but it doesn't affect how the portal works - once the visually impaired can work out which "icon" they have selected :)

Marvellous - only noticed it last night as we haven't used iPlayer for ages - same this morning so I thought must be something wrong - I shall explain to the home-Luddites then run :) Ta v much.

Hi - not sure if this is a usual thing, but my TV Portal has a black background screen, no icons or tiles, just the text names of the services spread out over the screen. The text changes from white to light blue when selected - very hard to see it esp for other members of the family who...

Wow, bow scrape! Early morning as well :) No problem then as I won't be streaming from the HDR - however as the unencrypt uses wget, am I thinking it will have to cycle through the now "missing "files ? Or, as you did mention before, I should just leave it and the db will sort itself out...

Cheers BH - I'll crack on then, make me wonder what all that data in the db really is then :eek:

Right - now in a position to start archiving off some ts and sidecar files to my PC share, but before I do so I'm wondering how this will affect any of the DB data ? I can either use Windows file manager to move, or I can use webif - anything I ought to take note of ?

Many thanks - works fine :)
