Already had the converter lying around not being used, so it was no cost at all, which made it easier to connect it through the DVI.

Good news! With a bit of reshuffling and the discovery of a DVI/HDMI adapter, I have managed to sort it so that my PC now goes through the VGA port and the Hummy can go through the DVI. Only downside is that I have to use 720p rather than 1080...can't complain though. Now just going to use a...

The 3.5mm jack would have to be female, but I have cables like that. Tempted by the kenable one, as I don't mind spending a bit extra for hopefully better quality and the presence of a jack would make it easier I believe.

I looked at that one, but I wasn't sure about sound, as it would generally be taken through the scart too but VGA doesn't, unless they only have the scart transferring video (if that is possible)

The box I linked to has a headphone socket. That was one of my issues with the cables though, a number of them don't accommodate for sound.

Okay, so I was wondering if it would be possible to hook up my Hummy to my PC monitor. The monitor I have is an LG with a native resolution of 1680x1050, however it only has a DVI and VGA port on the back. I use the DVI port with my PC, so I plan, if possible, to link the Hummy to the VGA port...

Installed the CFW trouble free (apart from minor internet issues). The files which I was attempting to move when all this started are no longer playing up. Hopefully won't have the issues any more. Thanks for all your help.

Okay, it didn't work too well...again. I think it must just be the stability of the Ext formats that don't agree with the moving of the file. One file is semi-okay, it high speeds through the first five minutes then appears to play fine, without sound. The other file appears to be incomplete...

I used to use it as an Ext2 drive by formatting with my Ubuntu install, however, it never seemed to work 100% like that with my box (for example, telling me an hour file was actually around 24 hours, then another which would play at ultra speed!). So I decided that the Humax would probably work...

I wanted to know why it had done it with a straight forward USB format.

A complete power off appears to have fixed it. It didn't when I just turned it off with the remote though. Even with the USB unplugged, it would give me the USB option, and show me four drives. Now, after unplugging it from the mains, it is all back to normal, including the USB showing as 16gb.

Okay, so I was attempting to format a 16gb USB on my HDR-FOX T2, as I had some files larger than 4gb that needed moving. After formatting I only encountered a couple of issues: Firstly my 16gb USB now shows as 29gb(?!). Secondly, and most importantly, my internal hard drive is now showing in...

The antenna in and out sockets are arranged vertically. Got the box mid to end of August.

Ah, it's FHTCP 1.03.06

I have the same problem here. Had the HD channels, then they went down, and now they have gone. Doesn't appear to be transmitter related (Heathfield Transmitter) as my TV is still picking them up, but the box refuses to find them, even through manual scans. I've also tried swapping cables around...
