      Large external drives

      Yes, I had read that before posting, but it really does not relate to the specific issue. There is a mention that "up to 2TB is possible if preformatted", which implies, but does not say explicitly, that 3TB drives can't be used. Considering that the article is over a year old, I felt it was...

      Large external drives

      Can the HDR Fox T2 use a 3TB external drive? I have such a drive (formatted NTFS) that shows up ok on my Mac, so presumably the drive and cable are ok. But the Fox does not even see the drive. The information I have found so far indicates that this drive must use GUID partition table, not MBR...

      What is using the space?

      Thanks. As I mentioned, the files weren't visible in the web interface or on the box. And I would still like to know why they even existed. But they did appear with an FTP connection, and were then easy to delete.

      What is using the space?

      I'm not sure myself exactly where those folders live. They are set up when one installs nicesplice and nicesplice magic folders, and are visible on the Humax itself or in the web interface. Following your suggestion, I do see a lot of files in [cut] that are not directly visible in the web...

      What is using the space?

      The [cut] folder i my [edit] folder is showing 9 GiB used. But when I open the folder, there are just the three basic directories with size a few kilobytes, and no indicidual files. What reason can there be for this? If the space is taken up by invisible files, can they be made visible?Or is...

      HDR FOX T2 - does the tuner fall over at low temperatures?

      Just an additional data point. I have been having similar issues lately. My Humax is in a warm room. My TV is an old analogue one, so no point of comparison. I never watch live, the problem was noticed when watching recordings. I live in London, and have a good aerial fitted on the roof. I...

      Not decrypting

      I'll try the auto-decrypt on an individual folder, as that was had worked in the past, and there are several other files in the folder to decrypt. I had thought that probably it was an error on my part. But you are suggesting there may be an issue with the recursive auto-decrypt. If there is...

      Not decrypting

      I have the new webif, and have set it for recursive auto-decrypt. Some of my files have decrypted fine, but they may have been done with the old web if, I'm not sure.. But I have probably set something wrong, as it seems to have been stuck for a long time. The webif log reads Runtime...

      Safe to auto-decrypt and auto-shrink My Video?

      Thanks. With that info, I turned the Humax off and on, and its network connection is up again.

      Safe to auto-decrypt and auto-shrink My Video?

      Is it safe to put the Humax into standby if auto-decrypt is going on, or is this likely to confuse decryption of the current file? I ask because currently the web interface isn't working, and the reason seems to be that the Internet Settings show "network disconnected". So I was thinking of...

      Safe to auto-decrypt and auto-shrink My Video?

      Thanks. I can now see a DEC symbol for a couple of files. What confused me is that they weren't the first two files in the alphabetical (or date) order. Also, none of my files (all SD) show an ENC flag . And I guess nothing has been shrunk yet because it is too busy decrypting; at any rate there...

      Safe to auto-decrypt and auto-shrink My Video?

      I've just started using the custom firmware. Very easy to set up, and I expect it to be very useful once I have things installed and set the way that suits me. I am just trying the auto-decrypt and auto-shrink functions. About how long do these take on each file (say, about 3 Gb in size)? And...

      TS to MPEG and Editing ... Probably "noobie" questions

      MPEG Streamclip worked fine with transferred files from my old Humax (9200). But files transferred from the Fox T2 won't open properly, they give a white screen. I don't know what the difference is. I found that passing the files through VLC first (I forget the actual setting as I haven't done...

      How To: Download Humax files to PC - DECRYPTED

      The Linux versions probably work on a Mac, given that they seem to be written in Python. But installation isn't so easy if one is not used to the command line. XBMC and Cocoa wget are straightforward Mac programs that anyone should be able to install and use, though I don't know if they are...

      How To: Download Humax files to PC - DECRYPTED

      Renaming did not work for me. But passing the file through another program to convert it worked fine. Then I could use MPEG Streamclip to edit the file. I would not even need to use the other program (VisualHub) if I did not want to edit.

      How To: Download Humax files to PC - DECRYPTED

      I had just found the solution using the log file an hour or so ago. Right-clicking on the item is even better. The file downloaded by wget is a bit weird, though. Plays fine in VLC. But I am used to processing files in MPEG Streamclip and would probably prefer to continue doing that. In that...

      What Can We Do To Help?

      The solution to getting the media ID from XBMC turns out to be really easy. I use a Mac, so I don't know where the relevant file would be on a PC. XBMC produces a log file, and the ID is in that, and can easily be read off by eye. Alternatively, it should not be difficult to create a program...

      Just a note that XNMC or Kinsky Desktop would be the best uPnP clients to check, as they are cross-platform.

      How To: Download Humax files to PC - DECRYPTED

      I have just started looking at this method using XBMC. Took some fiddling to get a connection to the Humax, but got there in the end. I did not see any media id. Oddly the program played with subtitles and I did not see how to turn them off. I am using a Mac, so things are likely to be somewhat...
