Mine has started to continually do this as well for the last few months, to the point where i have to leave the box on 24/7 now otherwise it takes 10 minutes to get it working again. Its annoying, the only way I can get the picture back seems to be unplugging then re connecting the HDMI cable...

No i havent to be fair , How would I change the loader? * Don't worry, have found another post with details on. Will give it a try today and report back.

coincidence? i tried changing everything i could think of to fix it but it wouldn't, and that every single time the box was switched on for 2 weeks running after that it green screened, even just before i updated, then did nothing more than update to the latest firmware and it stopped for 3...

I have started to get a strange Green Screen (HDMI handshaking) issue with my HDR. Switch box & TV on, Humax logo appears, shortly after wifi dongle wakes up, hard drive whirs into life, live TV channel picture appears on screen for about 2 seconds then bang green screen. Box is fully active...

Thanks af123 Performed the diagnostic and it seemed to push everything to the server, didn't list BGT in the output, RS also reports it just saw the box and the offending failed recording message has gone. I can only think the RS package stopped pushing the data to the server each night...

Hi all, I have RS set up on my box and for the last month I have been getting an email every morning informing me of a failed recording on the box, always the same recording, an old Britain's got talent (the other half's not mine!) but that recording was deleted from the box ages ago so doesn't...

Have worked out the issue, for some reason Win 10 has converted all my USB sticks to use GUID (GPT) partitioning instead of MBR as well as creating a EFI system partition on the stick. I am guessing this is why the humax doesn't like the USB sticks anymore. Trouble is windows wont allow me to...

Thanks for your feedback, but the thing is I am using sticks I have always used for updating so i know they work and Ive done the process many times so familiar with that too. I have downloaded the file several times, checked, rechecked and checked again. Stick is Fat32, filename is correct...

Hi all, Suddenly having a strange problem with the old HDR Its been running for (years) fine on custom firmware, got a few additional packages installed but nothing major. Currently running Web interface version: 1.2.2-5, Custom firmware version: 3.00 (build 2137) i tend to update CF now and...

Cheers guys, it wasn't the amount of sectors that was worrying me as much as the steady increase (and having to keep clearing the banner on webif). That said the drive is performing just as well as it always has, and nothing saved is mission critical so Il add drive replacement on to the long...

Erm it must be getting on for nearly 3 years I think so wouldn't be surprised if the drive was getting tired. Are they IDE or SATA drives and is there any limitations or anything specific a new drive needs to be if i did swap the old one out (such at max 1Tb, 7200rpm etc etc)

Hi all, Got the latest FW installed with the hard drive reporting via web if. Seems like nearly every day the hard drive error banner appears when i first open webif and the reallocated sector count has increased by one. Its now standing at 72. I was just wondering if this is an...

Hi all, Basically next weekend i am on a business trip to south Yorkshire and will be driving up exactly the same time the grand Prix is recording! Now my hotel has free internet, and i am taking a laptop, so what i would like to do is access my humax remotely, download the programme to the...

Hi all, Just a quick question, I have changed my router to a TP-link one which has USB ports on it, so attached a hard drive to said port. On the hard drive i have films, media etc so effectively use the router as a kind of NAS for all devices on the network. The router has a media player so...
