Thanks for your input bottletop. Seems like I'm fretting over nothing.

When you put it like that then yes it's obvious that these figures are from the new drive 😏

I.D. number 1 and 7 seem rather high to me.

Chaps. Not long replaced the HD in my Hummy and wondered if there was a method to zero out just the Smart statistics. I think the disk diagnostics are displaying data from my old faulty drive as the seek and read/write values are still very high. Thanks

Wow you guys are quick. Just installed the betaftpd package and disabled the built in FTP server as suggested and hey presto, FTP commander now connects smoooooth. Thanks for the solution chaps.

Hi Chaps Decided to connect up my spare HDR Fox T2 recently and thought I would send some recordings to it via FTP commander. Problem is it's refusing a connection with an error "500 Connection refused (Winsock error #10061)" reported in FTP commander. My original Humax connects just fine and...

My crash log reports six crashes since the beginning of this year.

Thanks chaps. Its possible that someone pressed the TV portal button. I'll have to see if it happens in the future.

The next time it happens I'll pull out the network cable to the TV and disable its WiFi. That should indicate where the web interface is coming from. Stay tuned for further updates.

Well I'm fairly sure that if anyone wants to listen to the conversations that the wife and I have then good luck to 'em. Not the most informative or riveting chats I'm afraid.

Just as a follow up, I received the Broadlink RM pro and have successfully set it up to turn on and off the HDR fox T2. I also set up a routine so that Alexa will turn on the Hummy, TV and room light when I issue the appropriate voice command. Just for good measure I also have the Broadlink...

Was just thinking of using the Broadlink to turn on the Humax in response to a command issued to an Alexa device, and at the same time turn on the TV and maybe the room lamp using a routine. I never thought of using it for more than basic command like change channel, off/on etc. I guess it would...
