Web-connected TV on HDR-FOX T2?
A dustbin to hold deleted files just in case with a full delete after x days, disk fixing tools, share a drive on another Windows or Linux machine, write to an NTFS drive, decrypt recorded programmes including HD automatically, control the fan speed and its temperature thresholds, control how...- everthewatcher

Life of HDDs
Careful with Sky HD+ HDDs - the 500GB ones are locked to SATA1 speeds. The WD 2GB used in a caddy here came from a Sky box and is fine. Also last time I looked into this the USB-looking dongle firmware is hacked so it isn't recognised by standard operating systems.- everthewatcher

Life of HDDs
There's no argument about keeping the temperature low. The Start/Stop Count is 49,576 and the Load/Unload Cycle Count 49,428 so the motor hasn't been running all the time, although there's no way of knowing what the duty cycle was.- everthewatcher

Life of HDDs
It's always worth having an look at what's been dumped in the recycling area at the local Sainsbury's, which is where this had been left. Last week I passed on an Aldi/Lidl battery-powered lawnmower complete with battery and charger that might have been worth investigating But I did take its...- everthewatcher

Life of HDDs
Found a dumped VM-branded Cisco 8620 cable box with a 500GB HDD that I thought was worth bunging in the boot just for the drive. The HDD is a Western Digital WD500AADS from July 2011, 3042 days powered on, a power cycle count of 173 and no reallocated or pending sectors. WD's long test returns...- everthewatcher

Investigating the HDMI "Green Screen After a Few Seconds" Problem
Haven't there been cases of it occurring on a previously OK pairing? That suggests something changing with time and one candidate might be timing. I see from the WP article that the HDCP is implemented via the DDC which is based on the channel based on I²C specification at 100kHz or 400kHz.- everthewatcher

Amusing Items
They're 45-50mm bulbs and allowing for discarded small cloves I reckon 80g would be three of them.- everthewatcher

Will This WiFi Dongle Work?
FWIW these work to common standards so both ends don't have to be the same brand - I've got a Devolo dLan 1200 Wifi+ that works perfectly with a slower Netgear one and gives decent speeds even with two consumer units being in the signal path. They're out on loan ATM but I'm sure I've given the...- everthewatcher

Internal Temperatures (SoC)
FWIW on a long gone PVR-9200 I used the small temp-controlled fan PCB from a scrap PC PSU to control the main fan, with a bit of fine-tuning of the base speed.- everthewatcher

Internal Temperatures (SoC)
I hadn't spotted BT's post of last year. The reason I'd not tried to shift the heatsink/spreader is sometimes they're stuck to the die with an adhesive that sets rock hard and even with decent underfill between die and substrate I could see the HS/S adhesive winning.- everthewatcher
