    Media mistakes

    Here's an exception to this topic: an actual "Media Correction" (just how do BBC's subtitles get generated... AI/speech recognition? Humans with spellcheckers?) In "The Apprentice" final, professional chef Shelina Permalloo clearly pronounces herself a "restauranteur" (i.e. with an 'n') but deaf...

    Media mistakes

    I see the MotoGP was mentioned a few pages earlier. It reminded me of this, which I took of my TV back in Aug 2022 (the correct word, of course, was "bikes").

    Two Fox HDR T2 Boxes, Can I copy recording schedules across

    Is there a record time for resurrecting an old thread? The backup files live in /mnt/hd2/mod/var/backup/ (and additionally backup your channel "favourites" lists) (this is mentioned elsewhere, but this was the thread I found first, when searching for the same thing).

    Decrypting HD recordings not working

    No compelling reason really, the opt+ decrypt option is there and I've always used it. I also have "Suspend automatic processing whilst recording?" enabled, so it gives me a "do it right now" option if something long is recording (like the football was the other day when I wanted to do it)...

    High CPU usage from telnet server (utelnetd)

    This is more of a FYI in case someone searches for it (because I don't see it documented), rather than a request to fix, as it's not going to affect many people and can easily be worked around. I noticed this years ago but having spotted it again recently I remembered we had the same issue with...

    Decrypting HD recordings not working

    My WebIF told me lighttpd got an upgrade today (I see the "server.max-write-idle" timeout has gone from 360 to 3600 as per prpr's comment earlier). So I ran an on-demand decrypt on a previously failing file and it worked (a 3 hour program, decrypt took 1436 seconds, the box was busy recording...

    Decrypting HD recordings not working

    Yes prpr I will do, or pull via the DLNA server, now I actually know about the issue. My previous post was asking, "why not fix the issue?" as I was a bit puzzled and was wasting time failing to decrypt before finding this thread. My last two failures have been while the box was also recording...

    Decrypting HD recordings not working

    A good explanation by /df. Having just had this problem (decrypting a large file) and searching and finding this thread, is there any reason why the server.max-write-idle timeout shouldn't be greatly increased in the config file by the custom FW (e.g. by a one-off script that sets a flag in the...

    Mexico F1 Times incorrect

    Good idea Peterworks, I'll set a manual recording for the race highlights as that might fail as well I suppose. I realised quali wasn't recording even though I had set it, and the program after, to record, so maybe the program ID wasn't correct. So typing this to pass the time of 2 minutes of...

    Mexico F1 Times incorrect

    I moved the aerial to my TV, retuned, and exactly like my Humax, all Channel4/4HD programs from 06:00 Sunday for 24 hours are 1 hour early. So the fault is in the OTA EPG and probably explains why we are seeing different issues, all other channels look correct. My Mux network is "Berks & North...

    Mexico F1 Times incorrect

    Good spot antipodean! Unlike yours, my Web IF EPG, RS Visual, and Web IF scheduled events all match one another (as expected), and all programs all day from about 06:00 Sunday until 06:00 Monday, are 1 hour early but ONLY for Channel 4 & 4 HD. So the F1 race highlights in the early hours of...

    Moving Recordings between two Humax Machines

    I have a more graphical alternative (assuming you also have a Windows PC on the same LAN). A piece of free software (ftpuse) allows you to mount an FTP server as a Windows drive letter. 1. Decrypt recordings as mentioned above, and install and start betaftpd on the Humax (see guidance above)...

    Network Connection Problem

    The original post said "Checked the router and there is no wired connection!". If that means the router thinks no cable is inserted, then it appears the link between the router to the switch is at fault. As I understand it, that's the long underfloor cable. Suggestions: 1. Where did the...
