You're probably sorted by now but I replaced my Fox-T2 with a BT Pro Box. Officially only available from BT with a sub to their TV services, but I got mine from CEX. They also appear on Ebay but mostly over-priced & with CEX there's a warranty. Triple tuners, Youview, 1TB HDD & remote recording...
Thanks, guess I'll have brave the world of a custom install for the first time in a very long time!
Edit
Not quite as painful as I remembered. Thanks to all those who contribute. 🙂
Does the Humax firmware still do this or was it fixed by firmware? Want to dispose of my backup machine that doesn't have custom firmware on it but don't want to inflict that behaviour on a new user.
Well that was odd, both symptoms were indeed caused by duff batteries. I'd opened a new pack of four & even checked the voltage, but it looks like they had no current capacity. Another new set in each remote & all is good. The one that was flashing a sequence was programmed to code set two, so...
A couple of weird ones.
Firstly is a T2 that was returned to me from loan some time back. Thought I'd finally get round to wiping it & factory reset, but the remote doesn't work. I can see the IR through my phone cam but I can't control the box or bring up the code switching option with 0+OK...
Custom firmware? I posted recently on the 5000 thread that I was surprised & disappointed at how little the UI had evolved since the T2. None of the goodies from the custom firmware had been adopted, not even a basic file management structure. Although the images posted in this thread are old, I...
It's already back up for sale. 👍
Set up a test recording last night & for some reason it jumped out of standby 20 minutes before recording was scheduled. Didn't go back into standby & also seems to have randomly decided to record something else as well. It's also very noisy in operation...
Having just picked up a 5000 on a whim, I'm amazed how primitive it is compared to a T2 with custom firmware. It won't be staying long. If I was desperate to record more than two channels I'd prefer two T2s.
Haven't updated CF for a while (I'm on 3.00 :eek:).
Bit confused by the filename of "raydon_s_Media_and_File_Server_Bundle_for_the_Foxsat_HDR_release_4.1.3" that the 4.13 link goes to in post #1. Is the CF bundled within that as the filename makes no reference to CF?
If it is correct I'm...
Thanks, although at the time of the reading it's been copying data back from USB for a while but I'll take a look. Should maybe open the front of the cabinet for a bit more air flow when it's taking a pasting like this.
