    Humax says it crashed multipled times in a short amount of time but I was listening to music during that time (via SMB)

    Hi MymsMan, sorry for the delay in replying - I never got round to adding in the filter package. It's not crashed since and nothing else has changed on my system. If it happens again and is more repeatable I will have to try a few things and I'll report back here. :)

    Hi All, I'm having problems with youtube-dl version 2025.07.01 (I believe that's the latest?) for this URL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sbgHMrLPQrE (The Making of Tron 1982 Full Documentary) Can anyone else confirm they too have the same problem? I've also tried the option -f "18" to...

    When setting the long smart test running via the webif command line - is there a way to stop the unit turning off due to the 'DIsable OTA' schedule temporarily or do I need to just time it right and set it going earlier on?

    Thanks for the guidance. I've got the fix-disk package installed so will access the command line via the webif and run the long test. Here's the results of the crashdiag. I'll run the fix Webif from the command line and see if the fault repeats. I don't have the DLNA filter installed so will...

    Beta [samba] Samba 3

    prpr, out of interest what sort things do you have in your smb-user.conf file? I'm still looking to improve the shares and access but could do with a template of sorts to start me off. Thanks Rodp

    Hi All, Bit of an odd one. On webif there was a crash message saying there were 10 instances (which seemed rather high). All seemed fine yesterday. I have not updated anything recently - yesterday I just changed some recordings scheduled for today. I checked out the crash.log (and also ran...

    Hi All, Firstly, I confess I am a little paranoid. but... How can I tell if my HDD is checking itself regularly? The table in the Disk Diagnostics section appears to be all offline / manual stuff but should it show up other more regular tests that the HDD does itself? (I could have sworn that...

    replacing hard disk

    Stats are back and working now. :) Current stats below. 120 hours of error free running - let's hope it will continue now. However I think it is time to see what dual drive NAS drives are going for a good price this Black Friday! Let me ask a quesiton about that in a different post...

    replacing hard disk

    Hmmm, I thought I had updated it but maybe not (I assume you are talking about Webif). Let me update that! :) Is there an easy way to find out the difference between the two version?
