Having just recently enabled undelete, I'm now noticing that deleting files from my USB drive takes a lot longer than before (via the WebIF at least, I've not yet tried it via the user interface on the TV). It seems that this is because the delete operation is moving the file to the dustbin on...
The tweak is still available in Firefox - at least, the preference is still there and can be changed. Upping the value to from the default 90 to 1200 (seconds, I assume, so 20 minutes) doesn't make any difference, though: decrypts fail after 6 minutes either way. That suggests to me that it's...
Thanks for this explanation. I can't see myself going down that path if queueing decrypts proves to be a satisfactory workaround for my purposes in the long term. The protected session approach looks a bit complicated - although I could probably skip the re-integration in to the media library...
That log is empty.
I have now updated the auto processing settings and successfully decrypted the test recording I was using above by submitting it to the queue (FWIW the successful decryption took 10 minutes 26 seconds). So it does look like the problem is caused by a timeout in the web page...
Just checked: a 1 hour 5 minute/3.93GiB recording failed 55% of the way through after 6 minutes pretty much on the nail.
The xxx.ts.decrypting file continued to grow after the manual decryption had jumped to 100%. After a few more minutes it was the same size as the original xxx.ts file, and...
OK, thanks both for your clarification of queue processing. I'll have to take a look and see why my box seemed not to start processing a recording as soon as it was added to the queue.
An hour or so ago it did manage to manually decrypt one of the recordings which had been failing to decrypt...
Am I right in thinking that queued decrypts only run overnight? Certainly in the past when I've tried this the recording(s) has just sat in the queue with nothing obviously happening.
I don't use auto-decrypt because I don't often want to take recorded content off the box - plus I don't want a...

My HDR-FOX T2 is not decrypting HD recordings using the WebIF OPT+ menu function. The recordings are unprotected (auto-unprotect is enabled and the recordings do not have the ENC flag showing) and have the DLNA indexed flag showing. When I select the decrypt function the decrpyption gets going...
I believe you're thinking of the response that Born Cynic quoted. Mine had the subject line "BBC Reception Advice - Case number XXX-XXXXXXX-XXXXXX" and stated: "This is an automated email confirming we have received your submission via the Radio and Television Investigation Service diagnostic...
I agree that the problem seems to have gone away: the two episodes of Dublin Murders this week were glitch-free, as was Antiques Roadshow on Sunday, and various other BBC 1 Scotland HD shows over the past few days. As you say, it's not clear - because there's been zero feedback from the BBC...
Stereo: if I set it to multichannel the volume control on the Humax ceases to have any effect and we've have to control it through the TV all the time.
I haven't tried setting it to multichannel. However, I can report a definite result!!! with the test I did this morning recording BBC 1...
Thanks, it's reassuring to know that I'm not the only one experiencing this!
Unfortunately I can't check to see whether the problem occurs on the TV as well as the Humax as my TV doesn't have a DVB-T2 tuner. The only other DVB-T2 receiver in the house (the TV stick in the back of my computer)...
OK, a development: watching The One Show live this evening (well I suppose someone has to) I thought I noticed another audio hiccup. I pressed the immediate record button to see if I could "capture" any more. Sure enough a number of further, very obvious glitches occurred, which quick reviews...

As I mentioned before, I've not noticed the problem on recordings of programmes on BBC 2 HD (the aformentioned Grand Tours of Scotland's Lochs, plus NFL This Week, The Name of the Rose and Saving Lives at Sea) or Channel 4 HD (The Great British Bakeoff)...

Good to hear that the nasty red message isn't terminal! As it happens, I am required by SWMBO to delve around the back of the AV unit at some point today anyway so I'll check the fan and airflow while I'm doing that. I've installed the fan package and if the fan seems to functioning OK I will...
Ah, just hopped in to the webif and found this in the disk diagnostics:
I'm guessing that's not good...
No idea why it should suddenly have started to run hot, unless the fan has failed.
Should I still run fixdisk, or should I investigate the over temperature issue first?
Thanks for those suggestions. Not sure how much disc space I can free up, unfortunately, but I'll see what I can do, and then give fixdisk a go.
Craigkelly. (I have checked that it hasn't somehow managed to retune itself to Black Hill.)
I've noticed over the past week or so that recordings of programmes on BBC One HD seem to suffer from fairly frequent audio hiccups - brief drop-outs of sound lasting no more than a fraction of a second. The recordings of "Dublin Murders" from Monday and Tuesday were particularly affected...
