I was watching the BBC news channel and then this message was displayed: "The receiver will turn off in 2 minutes due to automatic power down" My Humax shortly after switched off.
Anyone know why it would do this or anyone else has similar issues?
I guess there are two different ways to hacking the software:
Extract the filesystem and drop in precompiled binaries and configuration scripts.
OR
Mount the extracted filesystem and boot it on PC. Then just install required software.
The problem with the first approach is that you would need...
I've managed to extract the Linux filesystem from the hdfbin-1-000000.raw which itself is contained within the HDF file. I'm going to attempt to install the OpenSSH binaries so that I can SSH into the box. Apparently box uses a MIPS processor so you have to run an emulator to boot the OS. Been...
Does anyone know if you have to be able to receive HD channels to get the new firmware as I have the T2 but I can't get Freeview HD until March next year!
It does support series link but it will only record the programs of the current series. The series link data is provided by the broadcaster and not all broadcasters provide it but most do.
Why do they even saying anything? Their constant promises make the situation even much worse. They should just say when it's ready it will be released instead of fixed dates and answers like these.
I'm not holding my breath regarding a release in a few weeks...
Thanks for the info. It would be great I guess if Humax communicated more to their customers. I emailed them a few months ago and never received a reply. It's a real shame because I want to like Humax, I think their boxes are by far the best and most reliable, but the customer service / customer...
I was more interested in any updates or news regarding the Firmware. There is no need to be rude, I'm just interested in the latest news. Also is it surprising that I might be annoyed about the lack of Firmware?
Thanks for the info Martin.
Can't quite believe how many times the deadline has slipped. I'm a Developer and I can't honestly understand how something like this could take a year to build. If I'm not mistaken the actual TV portal modules i.e. BBC iPlayer, Sky Player are just plug-ins provided...
Clearly it's not ready yet as I don't have it, I was merely asking for updates? It's not an unreasonable question considering the published release date promises from Humax and this being a Humax forum.
