Would someone else be interested in testing the fan idea ? The story behind me discovering this is that I had suspected I had an issue with my hard drive. I obtained a 250G drive and ran off that for a while, rebuilding my 500G original. I expect that is was during this that I omitted to...

I posted on here a while ago with my problem. What I noticed once when I opened up the unit was that I had forgotten to reconnect the fan one time when putting the unit back together. When I reconnected the fan and started using again, this led to a further period of erratic remote control...

I've got firmware and a drive, so yes could copy the recordings off. Different TV, well it was all fine with the Sagem into its DVI-D port, and first went odd with a borrowed Panasonic. Re. another handset, I have two of the Humax remotes and it won't respond to either when this situation...

No, and we have those devices in the house already, mrs myhandle won't accept that though. I suppose one possibility is to see if I can return the unit (nearly 2 years old, bought at Comet, lots of recordings in it we don't want to lose) but the expectation is the behaviour may return if it has...

No good I'm afraid, it hung up yesterday and tailing humaxtv.log, nothing came out in response to button presses. Maybe its time go get a cheap wifi android tablet and use it as the remote via the web-if page.

I gave the area around the IR receiver a good clean, and it behaved itself for a couple of days, but went back to its old ways afterwards. I've tried, on the TV, switching the 'Viera Link' option to 'Off', let's see how that goes. Switching the HDR off and on again will often fix the issue...

Remote stopped working tonight, so I went and ran a tail -f on the humaxtv.log Nothing in the log as buttons are pressed. I can still use the web interface and the command line, does this indicate a poor connection of the IR receiver on a circuit board somewhere, perhaps ? Or could be some...

Thanks, I'm getting some entries into humaxtv.log now. Now we wait for the remote to hang up ? I've set the Humax remote TV settings back the Panasonic code 359, pressed every button on the Humax remote with it in TV mode, and nothing appeared in the humaxtv.log, whereas I do see entries with it...

I do mean the Humax remote system. I read the thread about the HDMI cable with interest, and in the past I have swapped cables around, the trouble is as the problem can come and go, you do get false positives as the issue can just go away at the same time as you switch or pull a cable, and...

I have a similar issue to the OP. I will try to detail the background. Bought the HDR-T2 in February 2011, at the time we had a Sagem HD45 connected via a HDMI/DVI-D cable. All was generally well, occasional green screen if the HDR was recording when the TV switched on, could live with that as...
