3. BBC Series have not scheduled
  
  More than likely. Got a series recording for the BBC 6 o'clock news but every now and then one of the weekend ones doesn't get recorded even though it's gone out at the scheduled time. Next weekend it's fine. I'll try to remember to check the CRID if it happens again.

6. FVP5000T - Record button not working but red indicator light registers key depression
  
  Surprising how few people know about them. I've a Lidl set here dating from 2006 that's used on the four plugged-in lights in the living room. Found them so useful I bought a just-in-case second set that's not been needed and was used by a neighbour when they broke their ankle. As the intended...

  I see the HB-1000S has an external 12V power supply and this would be be the first thing I'd check.

  Been avoiding it all so wasn't aware of this. A bit of research reveals sodium carbonate is sprayed into the flame.

11. Alternating Static and Normal!
  
  That's odd as 'static' suggests an analogue TV source - could the display be being switched between an analog TV tuner [and] the HD-Fox?

  It's definitely a genuine Humax RM-F04 remote. The 'Replacement for' look-alike ones that don't have the 1-6 modes or control other devices go for a lot less.

  But another order, for some socket-head screws, placed just before has only just come up as dispatched - what's the point of offering RM24 delivery when you take two days to dispatch it?

  Thought it would be a good idea to get a new RM-F04 remote for the HDR-Fox T2s while they were still available. Went for this one from eBay as it was cheaper than Humax Direct. Ordered just before 3pm yesterday and it arrived early this morning.
