    HDR Fox T2 loses all signals after a day or 2 unused

    Yes it records and plays recordings fine. Once I've retuned the box it all seems fine, but next time I switch it on after a day or so even though the guide shows the correct schedule it won't receive any picture on any channel. I haven't tried opening the box and heating it up though. Having...

    HDR Fox T2 loses all signals after a day or 2 unused

    Just started having exactly the same problem with my Humax HDR Fox T2. Retune the box and all channels are fine. Leave it for a day and all I get is the error message saying nothing being broadcast.... :-(

    No Programmes Are Currently Being Broadcast On This Channel for approx 3 minutes

    Just came across this thread. I have a HUMAX HDR FOX T2 with the standard factory firmware and mine has just started showing the same error when I turn it on. It says no programmes being broadcast, yet if I retune the box it works ok. But next time I go to use it, the guide looks fine but no...

    Possible hardware fault? Remote not functioning

    Possible hardware fault? Remote not functioning

    Drat, I didn't realise that copying them via FTP would not decrypt them... Oh well will have to see if I can get them on to an external USB harddrive attached to the box.

    Possible hardware fault? Remote not functioning

    Thanks both. Managed at least to download my recordings via FTP to the computer from the box. Will need to explore options of getting the HD recordings off though, Foxy looks the best bet. I have investigated all possible interference problems and held the controller inches from the front of...

    Possible hardware fault? Remote not functioning

    I purchased a Grade A HDR Fox T2 1TB recorder a couple of weeks ago. It's been fantastic so far, no problems at all and recording quality is amazing. However last night I noticed the remote started to become very unreliable, failing to recognise any commands. I replaced the batteries with...
