Just to update: I ran fixdisk on the local Hummy and I think there wasn't very many things wrong with it (happy to share file/info as needed). The other one is fixing problems like there's no tomorrow, we will see what happens.
FWIW, both had shut down properly yesterday.
Not sure if any of...
So how does one detect this state on shutdown (as opposed to on startup)?
As an update, the schedule of the local hummy lost all but one programmes. I loaded more series and left the one in; I deleted all records in the schedule with no planned time. The media went to the top; I will keep...
Thanks for all the answers.
No, I meant in this thread.
Re DELINQUENT HALF-AWAKE, would a USB stick plugged to the front and keeping its light on tell me, or do I need to do something every day?
(I presume any USB stick does it, I don't need special like I need HDD?)
I have the same problem on my HDR Fox T2 and I believe I am the first to report a recording missed.
Part 1
I have an HDR Fox T2 which I use every day. At this moment I see that:
the EPG shows that it should be recording "The Repair Shop";
the schedule includes past (11 Jan) and future (till 23...
Thanks for the very prompt response. I am on the wrong thread. :-( Is there a way to move my q etc to the correct thread?
It is an HDR-Fox T2 that I have.
I clicked on the option and it set it; on the second click it then un-set it (the latest message is "Unflagged directory as...
Hello,
I had set my Hummy to decrypt recursively at the top, then changed my mind and cancelled it. It now creates two files: the intended recording and one called -dec (e.g. Mission_ Impossible - Fallout_20210220_2100.ts and Mission_ Impossible - Fallout_20210220_2100-dec.ts respectively)...
That's what I was trying to isolate.
At the times of test, the WiFi.
I use three plug-in timers: for the subwoofer, an evening light and some active speakers.
It looked like it. And it looked like it could cope with the boiler on too.
Yes.
Occasionally, yes.
So it should be doing better...
We were able to watch it with no problems at all, not a single glitch.
I have now deleted this recording.
But last night I tried again one of the recordings that I had copied across in my benchmarks and it was not watchable when streaming: instant, unacceptable glitching.
So I tried again...
Yes, let’s agree to ignore the Comtrend dashboard.
I will keep looking into it, as per my previous list, including the Xbox; I just need my co-worker to start his evening shift as I stream something HD.
I started a transfer of a new to me BBC HD program, total 13,999 Mb, at 12:56 into the old Humax and it finished at 13:31 (35 minutes).
Achieved bandwidth: 6.66 Mbps
The reported runtime of the program is 64 minutes (scheduled 60).
I started a transfer of a different, new to me BBC HD program...
So, today, I cannot reproduce the problem. We already had a hint yesterday: the file took approximately 40 minutes and its running time is reported by the WebIF browser as 58 minutes, so if copying and streaming is the same thing, then it should be comfortable. Here are some statistics:
ls -l...
It's been "a while" since I last handled a DB, I would have too much catch-up to do. I can see the timestamp of the last file copied for this recording on the CLI. I will do it again tomorrow, note down when I start and that should suffice.
I tried this method and the test file (STV HDTV) shows marvelously. I cannot readily make this the norm, but I can induce the occasional trip-hazard if needed.
The Comtrends show some kind of measurement all the time and it's way up high as reported, whether I stream or not; the page refreshes...
Thanks, I will install system monitoring and check.
In addition to the adapter connected to the router, I have five adapters. When I took the measurements, two of them were unplugged, including the one connected to the Xbox. The Xbox can also be connected via WiFi, it was shut down when I was...
Thanks. My adapters have the "Power Control" setting disabled, but I fixed the DHCP on the Humii (I like that :-)) too.
Does this require less bandwidth?
Can I control the size of the buffers?
I checked the reported statistics. While streaming HD, I get over 100Mbps, it reports, and still it...
Ok, I will look into it in a bit more detail (need to find the IPs of each Comtrend). I checked the dashboard of the one connected to the router (which is unambiguous in my head) and reported Tx is between 32 and 128Mbps for the five Comtrends that is sees; Rx between 22 and 113. I will...
