:-) Need to do an update - can't keep up! Thanks!

Thanks for that - works perfectly!

Hi all, I have a quick question... Is it possible to put the humax into standby via telnet/terminal command? thanks

thanks - a couple of areas to investigate there :thumbsup:

Thanks - I meant the "proper" way When using Linux terminal. The usual way of editing a crontab is to issue the "crontab -e " command :)
