Power Off Timer in Standby = boot to Half-Awake (and stay there)
If the ir package allowed remapping the Power button, might that be a way of avoiding this problem with manual Standby (in the other forum, obvs)?- /df

Two Problems While Trialling CF 1.03.12 on HDR-Fox T2
I expect the total number CF installations to be significantly larger, if even a keen user like myself has not found RS necessary.- /df

/mod is a symlink in the RO filesystem /. /mod/* expands in the shell to a list of the files and directories in the directory linked from /mod, whose filesystem is RW. Either rm -r /mod/* (leaves the empty mod directory, probably a good thing) or rm -r $(realpath /mod), but the realpath...- /df

Linux/Bash(?) help please
If this patch is uncontroversial there's no reason not to include it in the delivered package, or massage it so that it isn't controversial. Otherwise you have to observe when the affected files have been updated and apply the patch yourself, in a telnet or WebShell terminal session. Although...- /df

Your typical ISP mail account may not be so tricky as G-not-reallly-mail, especially when the connection is over the ISP connection. For today's TLS, sSMTP probably needs to be rebuilt against the latest OpenSSL, as was done with wget (eg).- /df

Apparently I already exhausted all the ideas I had about the unsynced subtitles issue (3).

Apparently the expression evaluator doesn't know about $(...), whether accidentally or by design. I guess there is some processing to parse $(...) in the top level of Jim parsing that is not available when an expression is parsed. You might compare it with a C preprocessor macro.- /df

Yes, I think so. The Jim manual says that (depending on build options) REs can be POSIX Extended or conform to a subset of Perl/Python/TCL Advanced REs. In the latter case (?:pattern) brackets and matches the pattern like (pattern) but without capturing the match for pattern. The additional...- /df

Faulty Preamp PSU Caused Humax Reception Problems on Some Muxes
