Hi EEPhil
Thank you for your post.
I fully agree with you that covering the vent slits etc would be a bad idea. However seeing as the back of the unit where the vents etc are situated is clearly made of metal, I don't plan on covering the back.
Hi Everyone. I have not checked this thread for a while because I have been very busy. Thank you very much for all the new replies.
Black Hole, you are wanting to know about the source of the interference and how it manifests itself. Well, the interference happens in short bursts of about a...
Hi Black Hole
Thank you very much for your reply. I would be very interested to know your opinion on why my BD-E8300 seems almost immune to interference while my HDR Fox T2 is not.
Hi Ezra
Thank you very much for your reply.
I have actually tried swapping the two machines in the aerial chain but the HDR Fox T2 is still the poorer of the two in terms of interference. I have done my best to minimise interference from appliances in my flat so I think that the sources of...
I have read somewhere that the HDR Fox T2 and other similar devices have "Pulse Killer" chips in them which can, to some degree, filter out impulse interference. Is this correct?
As well as an HDR Fox T2, I also have a Samsung BD-E8300 Bluray player with inbuilt PVR. The aerial is plugged into...
Dear Ezra
I think that the interference is fairly sporadic. I can watch an HD channel for a few hours without any interference and then I will watch one program which will have three or four moments of interference. I don't think any of my own appliances are the cause because I have done...
Dear Ezra and Martin
Thank you very much for your replies.
Ezra, what you seem to be saying is that even though the HDR Fox T2 is reporting a frequency of 546000KHz it may have, in a hidden manner, auto-fine-tuned to 545800KHz. Am I correct?
Also Ezra, thank you for pointing out the...
I receive my Freeview signals from Crystal Palace and my reception of the Standard Definition multiplexes is pretty much rock solid. However my reception of the HD multiplex (Channel 30) occasionally suffers from interference which interrupts the program I am watching. When I press MENU ->...
Hi
I have a reminder set on my HDR Fox T2 on BBC1 HD between 4:25am and 4:35am daily in order to prevent the OTA. I chose BBC1 HD because there are programs on that channel that I like to watch on BBC1 when I get back from work in the which are on during the two hours before I get back home...
Hi
Does anyone know if there is any software available which can scan any video file and then generate an accompanying .nts file so that the video file can be played on an HDR FOX T2 with full trick play functionality?
Thank you
Hi Black Hole
Thank you very much for your very informative reply.
I have transferred some SD recordings from my HDR FOX T2 on to my 15" laptop and have played them full-screen using VLC and the quality is superb without any "ringing". Am I correct in deducing from what you have said in your...
Hi
I would be very grateful if the experts on this forum could answer this query.
When the HDR FOX T2 converts the broadcast transport stream into an HDMI signal, does it do any image processing (apart from the up-scaling of SD) or does it leave the images undoctored?
Does the HDR FOX T2...
