Too many thing these days are not economicaly repairable, except at a Repair cafe. No one is going to spend more than an item costs new to have someone attempt a repair that may not provide a long term solution.

Moot point now but it might have been worth looking for a local "repair cafe" event - not tried it myself (yet)

RIP Meshnet :( Unfortunately Nord have decided to drop support for their meshnet product claiming lack of interest (they failed to advertise it) So I have now set up TailScale instead and while some aspects like setting up a subnet router were a bit fiddly (it was automatic in Meshnet) others...

The Humax is runiing linux!

One of these features designed by nimble fingered youngsters with little sympathy for the those with less able to manage the proximity of keyboard buttons and differences of tap lengths

But not necesarily completed, while the OS system will protect against deletion of file in use it won't protect against shutdowns whilst in prcocess. The queue system will restart incomplete operations on restart - providing the input file still exists! You can check in sweeper whether a...

Sweeper only "sees" recordings it doesn't look for other fille types but you can add file exists/doesn't exist tests to your sweeper rules. For example this rule checks for the existence of a thumbnail (.thm) file: See the wiki for more details on Sweeper rules https://wiki.hummy.tv/wiki/Sweeper

Unless you are using an IBM mainframe computer in which case the the character order is determined by the EBCDIC value of the characters and numbers come after letters xF0-F9 (I know that @prpr is just quoting verbatim! ;) )

You are still using and paying for the same amount of electricty regardrless of whether it is plugged into the back of the humax or into a socket! A new TV that doesn't have most of the streaming apps already buit in!?

If you procastinate a bit longer then CF 3.14 will be released fairly soon with a dramatically easier installation method

Browse on the mobile version seems to be missing nearly all functionality! 😭 You would need to go to the desktop version of the site to get the full browse function and to see the Diagnostic page for log files I don't know if Magic Folders writes to a log file, if so it would be worth checking...

Are you talking about the nicesplice-magic-folders I didn't know anyone still used the Magic Folders interface! The folders may have been left around from a previous installation of the package It is MUCH easier to use the webif to run crop and splice operations

I think that it might be the underlying problem - it seem a bit fragile and too easy to end up with corrupted databases. We often see this in the webif with the queue.db and monitor.db needing to be recreated

It is likely to be entirely coincidental, random restarts to the setup wizard are unfortunately not uncommon, The package updates were problem free for me,

Once fix disk (eventually) completes it is worth running it a second time to confirm it has actually cleared all the errors - but it should take less time 2nd time around
