So many Home & Away fans :rolleyes:

Yes i was going to say about viewing in High Quality, used to be an option of viewing normal or high quality (more demanding)

I'm not sure if BBC iplayer is more demanding on your internet than the ITV one. I've not used it for a while i must admit. How do you connect your HDR to the net, direct into router or via homeplugs etc?

Is there a web page or something showing what that AV2HDR does. Does it allow recordings to be moved off the box like i have been doing but over a network. I might add that our HDR is really a secondary recorder up in the bedroom that gets used for 'my' stuff i want recorded (missus seems to...

Well i tried 'super' and didn't really get on too well with it, then i came across a guide using AVC video converter so tried that. Excellent results and includes an edit function so can whip out the adverts and convert to avi which plays on everything we need it to - had a film that was 3gb >...

Oh yep see it - lol i had already downloaded that earlier when searching about for tips on how to do this job. So that program once installed will recognise the usb Ext3 format drive just like any normal drive in windows yes?

Hi Graham That link goes to a page i'm not sure what i'm meant to be downloading, is it the file e2fsprogs-1.42.tar ?? How do i run/install that?

Hi forum, i seem to remember Hummy.org or something similar - is this a reincarnation of that? Anyway looking to do the mythical Humax HDR files to pc transfer and been trying to read up on it, some threads on the net are quite dated and i want to try and make sure i'm using the most up to date...
