1. My eyes are blind, I cannot see... that TINY blue font
  
  Oh. But this is the Hummy's font, displayed on the TV screen. Or have I misunderstood you?

3. My eyes are blind, I cannot see... that TINY blue font
  
  Especially spindly pale blue letters against a white background. Is there a way to change font colour / weight either on the T2 or on the WebIf? Looked through these fora (grammar!) but saw nothing on this topic. Thanks!

  I expect this subject has been aired before, but I couldn't find it. Apologies in advance! Just like my old 9200, the Fox T2 collects a load of scheduled events from the past. On the WebIf they appear down at the bottom of the scheduled events page with START TIME and DURATION columns blank...

  It sounds like everyone except me has their box near their telly. I've got mine on a hifi rack behind my viewing chair - and a 10 metre HDMI cable. Am I odd?

9. HDR-FOX T2 vs DTR-T1000
  
  They used to say that you wouldn't notice the difference between SD and HD on a 32" set or smaller. That's not my experience. I was hugely impressed by the jump in quality from my old Humax 9200, both in picture and sound. If you've been used to that quality, I think you'll miss it. Setting up...

  Hmm - that's a point. According to the recorder manual, aspect ratio is automatically transferred if the recording is made in VR mode (this is a Sony). I shall experiment!

  I was a bit surprised to find that the HDR Fox T2 only has the one HDMI socket. I have linked it to my DVD recorder (which also only has a single HDMI out) via SCART. The loss in quality will presumably be inconsequential. Other than the fact that the custom firmware for the Humax makes a...
