Do I need WebIf to benefit from CF?
All of those things are configured via the WebIF or, if you prefer, could be configured by editing files via the Telnet interface. Both require a network connection. Also, I'm not completely clear how you install packages other than a network connection. That said, if you connect the network...- ABMorley

2 humax T2's One in each country
I'm sure you can. However I suspect you may find Slingbox less hassle than getting the two Humax box solution working. Nevertheless, I'd be very interested in hearing how you get on as one never knows when that sort of capability might come in handy. Personally, if I were to attempt such a...- ABMorley

Convert TS files to audio
As EEPhil says, for this sort of thing, ffmpeg is the tool to use. If you really need MP3 (ie your player can't cope with mp2): ffmpeg -i infile.ts -f mp3 -acodec mp3 -aq 2 -vn outfile.mp3 And if you'd prefer AAC: ffmpeg -i infile.tx -c:a aac -q:a 2 outfile.m4a Putting it all together (in bash...- ABMorley

Transfer Recordings To Pc and Second 1800t.
How about if you rename them and copy them back to the internal drive of the 1800t? Do they then play (despite having been copied off and then on)?- ABMorley

Transfer Recordings To Pc and Second 1800t.
If you copy them onto the USB and try to play them from your first machine, do they then play OK? If so, it suggests that, like the HD recordings, they're getting encrypted. The broadcasters have the option of doing that, but they don't normally do so for SD recordings. But ISTR on the HDR-FOX...- ABMorley

Help please, webif 500 internal error
Ah - ok. Good. All in order now then. Thanks. BTW what may have cleared the xconv issue (for me) seemed to be: opkg --force-reinstall install jim webif Thanks in any case.- ABMorley

Media List for recordings not showing up. ( HDR 1800T )
I've also seen this on my mother's HDR-2000T. Fortunately it has cleared itself after a power cycle. However I'm concerned that it may be going wrong.... and mine is still under its warranty (it was bought as graded stock from Humax Direct).

Can you run custom firmware on the 2000T?
Makes sense. Thanks. If one falls into my hands (I bought one for my mum) I might have a play. But right now I'm running two Foxes, so as you say.... why bother?- ABMorley

Why do you think it never will be? Have Humax done a proper job of protecting the upgrade (cryptographic signing etc)? Just wonder what makes you say that. Nintendo Wii has been cracked, though the 3DS hasn't. And Nintendo put a lot more effort in than Humax.- ABMorley

Graded stock shipping with strange filesystem format?
I think I'm right in thinking the e2fsck we use from the command line on the Hummy is one installed by custom firmware and no one installed by Humax? So if they did deliberately use extra features it's no surprise fsck didn't know about them.- ABMorley

Graded stock shipping with strange filesystem format?
I agree. I'm the originator of the thread and reformatted the errant disk from the Humax command line using the custom firmware tools (which, I suspect is the same as any other Linux-based formatter) and had no problems. It seems that that version of the Humax app formats it in a strange way...- ABMorley

Well, I'd tried replacing the PSU and the HDD so by a process of elimination it was the motherboard. I tried re-soldering the SATA connectors and a few other bits (but not the BGAs!) to no avail.
