I had installed both tempmon and sysmon. Not sure I agree - that assumes that the fan continues to work. Anyway - I did have the Fan package installed, but hadn't configured it at that point. When I saw the temp alert, I set it to 50% just to see if it would force the fan to work, and despite...

😁 Although, luckily, I installed the tempmon package from the outset, because it started complaining about being >54°C. After a little investigation, it looks like the fan driver has gone. Luckily, I could just transfer the HDD harness with the 12V hard-wired across from the old one. Odd that...

So I've just picked up a "Very lightly used" box from Facebay for £40. Owner claimed it has been in a drawer for six years, and there were recordings of Masterchef from 2013, so that seems legit. HDD has POWER_ON_HRS = 3315. Am I right to feel slightly smug?

Indeed - that's the plan, now.

Thanks. Yes, I do routinely run auto-decrypt. Except for after my last-ditch attempt at recovery over Christmas, when I reset it, and re-installed the CF. I just didn't get round to installing the usual set of plugins as I realised it was terminal, and I'd have to replace it. Since I disabled...

Apologies. A cursory search found another detailed thread on this subject, which I completely missed first time round.

Ooh. I do run custom FW, but was not aware I could do this. I've just had a look on the old one and have just found the Encryption Key setting, Nice! Thanks. That's the job for tomorrow evening sorted then.

I've been nursing my beloved Hummy for about ten years now. I've replaced the HDD (twice), and the fan. But now I fear it's terminal; The box takes about five attempts to fully turn on, and crashes occasionally. After having replaced all the electrolytic caps on the board, and also the...

Hmm. Sorry. I did a search through the forums on "Forgot Password" with no joy. I still forget that there's a Wiki. Again, sorry and Thanks!

Lesson 1) Never play around with passwords when you are half-asleep. OK, so I've been experimenting a little with DynDNS with a view to (possibly) making my Web-IF open to the big wide world. In reality, I probably won't due to all the security issues it throws up. Anyway, whilst eating my...

That's not good, but if I steer clear of the fried eggs, I can generally get away with only a minor tongue-lashing.

eek! Better try that again then, but this time do it properly, or I'll feel the wrath of the little one. Thanks for the heads-up...

It's on the Web-if? I meant manually editing the end time via the remote. But I'll definitely update the web-if...

Naughty Daddy Pig, tell him I'll set dine-saw on him if he does it again. Thanks af, prompt service as always! Yes. In the end I manually fiddled with the schedule on the box (didn't realise you could do that:rolleyes:), but I've just tried it with Roary and it worked a treat. Cheers.

Hi Folks, Not been around here much lately (but still very much enjoying the customised firmware), but am having a problem. From the RS Portal, I'm trying to change a recording (Peppa Pig for those who are interested) from AR to padded. I can enter the Before and After values, but nothing...
