Optimum Solution for Backing-up HDR-Fox T2 Recordings (not CF)?
Indeed. I conducted trials back in the early days (2011) and wrote them up in my Trail Guide. If you [the OP] really want to stick with non-CF, the Trail Guide is about what can be done with the unmodded HDR-FOX... but CF opens so many more possibilities. In particular, with CF you could back...- Black Hole

Green screen of death.
Forum search should be your friend. Perhaps, it depends exactly what's causing it. Searching for "hdmi green" would have produced this thread: https://hummy.tv/forum/threads/humax-greenscreen-on-some-tvs.11039/ (see particularly post 21) Swapping a HDD between HDR-FOXes- Black Hole

Deleting Loop
Fewer, I think The delete loop is caused by a corrupt file, but IIRC the corrupt file is not on the HDD, so simply formatting the HDD does not clear the corrupt file. Running the CF fixdisk option (from the maintenance mode Telnet menu) is the best way to sort this out, because it is able to...- Black Hole

Replacement remote
Yes, I was confused by that too, but I held off posting because I'm not near a HDR-FOX to test. The "---0" on-screen sounds like trying to change LCN (TV channel) to me, not the response you would expect from the remote control mode change at all. This might be expected if the RC does not...- Black Hole

Reboot Affected Signal Strength!
Nope, don't often use that machine and tine is short. It's happening from time to time, on my units anyway. A reboot restores the UI's view of the schedule from some deeper store (and I don't mean auto-schedule-restore), until when nothing gets acted on.- Black Hole

Reboot Affected Signal Strength!
I was watching Dave perfectly well, but the machine needed a reboot because the schedule had gone AWOL (again – this is the third machine, and no I didn't think to look at previous advice). After the reboot, Dave was all blocky. Hard to believe it's a coincidence.- Black Hole

DLNA indexing video/mp4 as audio/mp4
It's accessing files that you want. DLNA doesn't really "stream" as such, it's just an industry standard mechanism for devices to discover resources on other devices, and then access them. Smart TVs also have the ability to access NAS (Network Attached Storage), which is just like a USB drive...- Black Hole

Cognitive Biases
I've been very stupid. I think this might be an example of "anchoring bias", but I'm not sure how to classify it: I needed some ducting 150mm diameter. I knew it needed to be 150mm diameter.

Intermittent Freezing
Freezing on playback implicates the HDD. You've not said anything about trying a disk format. What is this? Does this garbled text suggest the OP is using a script or some kind of AI??- Black Hole

The free option is to use your phone and the ir package. Or there are several existing threads: https://hummy.tv/forum/threads/new-rm-f04-remote-excellent-service-from-ebay-supplier.10254/ ...but I don't think you'll find any non-OEM handset able to change control channels.- Black Hole

DLNA indexing video/mp4 as audio/mp4
SMB isn't specifically a Microsoft thing (I think IBM came up with it, but...), but if needs must. I would be surprised if the TV doesn't have NAS access, and the HDR can be set up as a NAS using SMB or NFS. Once you have managed to expose the internal HDD, you will then need to play with the...- Black Hole
