  HDR FOX T2: Optical
  
  It's the laser output and it's on whenever the box is switched on i.e. not in standby . The sprung cover on the socket is pushed back by insertion of the plug but the red laser is visible around the edges of the cover before insertion. Edit: Says on DS it's not a laser but an LED Gerry

  If it's any consolation my HDR T2 (1TB) does a similar thing, i.e. if I switch the box out of standby when it's recording, select HDMI on our Sony KDL-W40A12U...nothing, just a black screen. The box is on, i.e the display is lit up, but no picture. It's fortunate that I have a 'Neet' HDMI...

  HDMI problem with Sony TV
  
  I have a 5 year old SonyKDL-W40A12U and an HDR Fox T2 (1TB) which was purchased in November 2010. There is only one HDMI socket on the TV so I purchased a Neet HDMI switcher with four inputs via Amazon. This came with a credit card size remote control to switch between the inputs if necessary...

  I've noticed with all three of the Humax boxes I've owned (8000, 9300 & HDR Fox T2) that the sound level is always lower than that of my Sony TV. I have always run the Humax volume levels flat out and adjusted the TV volume up & down with the TV remote. The quality of sound on the HDR Fox T2 is...

  My HDR Fox T2 does not do it. When pressing the the exit button if playing back a recording and when recording 2 other channels, the box reverts to the 'video' screen with the list of recorded programmes. The on going two recordings continue. I hope this makes sense! Gerry
