    Beta [transportx] Additional 'transport' functions

    Indeed I hate the fact you have to press the Slow button to get into slow modes with the standard firmware. It is entirely counter intuitive.

    New RM-F04 remote: Excellent service from eBay supplier

    That's not a genuine one, the text says it doesn't have the programmable buttons feature.

    New RM-F04 remote: Excellent service from eBay supplier

    I hadn't realised how much is out there on ebay. Dozens of HDR Fox T2s for less than £50, dozens of remotes for less than £10. I don't think I need to buy anything, those supplies are not going to dry up overnight. There's way more stock out there than pretty much anything else I've bought on ebay.

    Is the listing you bought from still live and selling? Can you post a link here please if so?

    HDR-FOX T2 HDD Replacement

    OK so it's a 6Gb/s drive running at 3 Gb/s. But is that done using jumpers on the drive or is it auto downgrading? Turns out I have two WD10EZEX, I have no idea where one of them came from! And they do have jumpers, on the edge of the drive though with no markings of any kind. I was looking on...

    HDR-FOX T2 HDD Replacement

    Does anyone know if Western Digital Blue WD10EZEX can be used in an HDR Fox T2 with 1.03.12 and 3.13 custom firmware: https://www.westerndigital.com/products/internal-drives/wd-blue-desktop-sata-hdd?sku=WD10EZEX I know it isn't ideal being 7200rpm, but I have one that is barely used and never...

    What To Do with a Dead or Unwanted HDR-FOX, HD-FOX, or DTR-T1000/1010

    I never go in local charity shops, indeed I rarely go in shops at all these days apart from Sainsburys and M&S Simply Food. Perhaps I should start going in charity shops when I pass them, but the chances of there being an HDR Fox T2 in there on the rare occasions I'm passing seems low.

    New RM-F04 remote: Excellent service from eBay supplier

    I could do with some more remotes as well. My two are in excellent condition and all the buttons work. But my parents and my aunt's have half the rubber buttons semi destroyed due to my mum and my aunt pressing them with their finger nails. And one or two of the buttons on their remotes don't...

    Stuck at START SYSTEM even with no hard disc

    Turns out the "No Signal" on a soft reboot with vertical tuners has been reported before by @everthewatcher. I think for now we should assume it is common to all vertical tuner boxes until we see some counter examples (which since they're working probably no-one will report, why would they)...

    What To Do with a Dead or Unwanted HDR-FOX, HD-FOX, or DTR-T1000/1010

    If anyone has working spare boxes within reasonable distance of Cambridge or Holmfirth I'd be willing to drive to pick one or two up since I'm now down to just one spare between 4 in use HDR Fox T2s (and I don't know whether it works or not...)

    What To Do with a Dead or Unwanted HDR-FOX, HD-FOX, or DTR-T1000/1010

    Aha it's not just my newly pulled out of the loft and pressed into service vertical tuners box that does the "No signal" after a soft reboot. I think with two reports we should assume they all do this until proven otherwise. My desire to avoid any more vertical tuners boxes is reinforced...

    Enabling Folder or Recursive decrypt causes T2 to crash when processing is scheduled

    I'm on 1.03.12, I've never used anything else since that became available. One of my boxes has vertical tuners so can only run 1.03.12. I've always been aware that if you need Audio Description then 1.02.20 is the least worst option but still has issues. I wasn't aware it can't handle...

    Stuck at START SYSTEM even with no hard disc

    It did seem odd to me, I agree they shouldn't be involved. Is the timeshift buffer not encrypted for HD channels? The box has definitely lost something though and putting it into standby and coming back out fixes it. I had a quick look on eBay. There are a hell of a lot of HDR Fox T2s for sale...

    Beta [transportx] Additional 'transport' functions

    Having recently tried to use slow motion and found how hard it is to freeze on the frame I want, I'll probably have a go at using this now. What I am finding is programme makers increasingly think we are all watching on 65" screens so they can show a flash of a mobile phone screen for less than...

    Enabling Folder or Recursive decrypt causes T2 to crash when processing is scheduled

    I've never set a custom encryption key on any of my boxes, two of which are set to auto decrypt all videos. (My parents and aunt's boxes are not set to auto decrypt, since I have no direct access to them most of the time I run simpler configurations on them.)
