1. "Smart" TV that works well with Humax HDR-FOXT2 DLNA
  
  Not sure if this is in reference to the Pi, but I use DLNA (and may have confused things with copying file to another place to play on the Pi)

2. "Smart" TV that works well with Humax HDR-FOXT2 DLNA
  
  I'd add my support to a Pi based mediacentre (Kodi). Always works well (as long as I have set up decryption)

  Just in case it helps.. I get the crash just after starting, whether or not I press anything, and I noticed it as a possible problem after going to CF 3.x I maintain at least 120GB free on a 500GB HDD, and have a wifi dongle. Frequency of occurence is unpredictable, and isn't correlating to...

  I've found that some UPDs, which Windows won't do anything with, can be brought back to a semblance of normality by use of gparted under a linux system (which, of course, can be a system booted from CD etc with a Live Linux distro). I currently have 2 64GB Patriot UPDs recovered in this fashion...

10. FixDisk CloneMultiplyClaimedBlocks?
  
  I'm pretty sure that you could then copy them, with the HDD in an enclosure. In my experience, the multiply claimed blocks evidence crossed and corrupted chains in the file structure. Sometimes you can work out whether one file is uncorrupted, and another has to be discarded, but I don't know a...

  However, it may be the only practical way to effect it. I speak as one who was quite happy to bind the IPs on the router, but had to change method when I found that my (enforced change) new router showed the IPs as bound to MACs, but then handed out 'random' IPs from the DHCP pool if the devices...
