Have looked at both the capacitors and the soldering joints, but cannot see any physical signs of problems, so not sure what the problem could be? May have to consider taking it into a repair place somewhere, or just ditch it and buy a refurb replacement.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I will check this out tonight and see if I can at least diagnose the issue in the first instance, then can decide the next step from there. I will report back.

Im quite happy to take it apart, and actually did this last night (Ive got nothing to lose now anyway). I just have no idea what I'm looking for or what I'm doing. I have been speaking to someone about the dry joints, so can look carefully for that now. Not sure what I am looking for with...

Hey guys, just looking for ideas and possible solutions before I throw this box away... I got home 2 weeks ago from work and the dim orange ring light was showing to say it was in stand-by. However the box wouldnt respond or come into life. So I turned it off at the wall and back on, but then...

Hey guys I have only just found the auto-expire option you can apply to folders (dont know how I missed that). I just applied it to one folder for an expiry date of 7 days, however it deleted programmes in that folder which have not yet been watched. Is this right? Is there a way you can...

Thanks af123 for your response. I have always been reluctant to use the portal in case it missed scheduling my programs. Now I know this isnt a bug and how it works, I think I will start using it now. Cheers

Hey all I have an issue when setting up auto scheduling. When I try and use the synopsis to filter out some items, it wont pick up a program it should clearly match on. See following example I have set up (this is for test purposes only). Here I am trying not to include any episodes of...

I guess that's a possibility as I was panicking and rushing. I typed in the first line which worked. I then clicked "y" when it asked and nothing happened it just went to a new line I always rush things, like to get things sorted. Maybe should of taken more time Sent from my Nexus 7

Was just worrying because I lost all control of my box. Could telnet in but not fix disk, lost the web if etc. Whatever caused it, I'm glad its sorted. Just a little annoyed that I have lost the Olympics opening and closing ceremonies in HD. Thanks for replying though and giving your input...

Ok a factory reset seems to of worked. I genuinely believe this was caused by the packages I installed somehow because of the misbehaviour the last couple of days with the files. Well it let me reinstall webif and everything seems normal again, although I have lost all my programs, schedules ets

Sorry I jumped the gun and am trying something else. It gave no message back I noticed if I turned the box off at the wall, when I turn it back on, I have about 2 seconds when it comes up before it gets stuck in the loop. In these 2 seconds I have now jumped into the installation menu to do a...

That didnt work. I telnetted in, typed in the first two commands, but the box did not reboot

Thanks for your quick reply, I will give this a go now

Hey guys, I am having serious trouble with my box. Firstly, apologies if I call the packages by the wrong names, I have lost access to the webif along with other probs. It started the other night when I was trying dedub. I ran this through the webif on a couple of folders. Tonight I...

I would be very interested. I like the series folders so don't use flatten. I'm surprised no-one has developed this sooner! Sent from my Nexus 7
