Has anyone taken one of these back under warranty recently? Did they get the same box or a newer replacement model?
The box is actually under extended warranty from Richer Sounds (The only place I've ever purchased an extended warranty from)
I have a powered USB-SATA adaptor but I think the hard-drive is dead (clicking and can't record or format it).
I was thinking more along the lines of backing up the schedule from the Remote Schedule or similar.
Is there ANYTHING I can back-up or is it a case of start again.
If it was Friday Bolton wouldn't be a problem, could use it as an excuse to visit Arcade Club again.
Looking at the fuel costs next day delivery seems best option.
EDIT:
After power cycling the box (button at the front until all sounds ceased then power at the back) the drive is now only clicking when powered on so sounds terminal.
What drive (within the UK for next day delivery) is recommended, we only need 1TB.
Humax has been glitchy (locking up, failed recordings) for a few days and this morning showed a message saying the hard disk had to be formatted. As we only had a few programs on there I decided to format the drive.
After that I tried to connect via WebIF and got the following screen:
I...
I do but sometimes if I don't use the Humax for a while or I'm away I forget to set the next episode to record.
There are currently 3 series that are showing as individual episodes.
Polyoaks
Buy Me Up TV
The Mary Whitehouse Experience
BBC & CBS Drama.
Strange thing with CBS Drama is that it does say record series but then after the episode has been broadcast the next episode is never scheduled.
I have to delete the old recording from the schedule and manually add the next one.
I'm getting a few series (mostly radio) that are only letting me set them as an individual episode and then manually add the next episode after that one has recorded.
Who if anyone can I contact to try and highlight the issue?
Unfortunately no, but if others aren't reporting a similar drop in signals it must be something at our end.
If I remember right though ARQ B Channel 60 is QVC so not too worried about losing that.
More worried about COM 7 HD & COM 8 HD as they carry channels we watch.
Sadly no.
The aerial is right at the top of the roof gable end with nothing local in it's line of sight.
Only thing of note that happened recently was a power cut in a thunder storm.
