Hi All - well it looks like everything is fixed ! I un-mounted the volumes to do what prpr had suggested above, and all went fine, and the humax then went into 'Download Complete Web Interface' which I did, and everything has returned to normal - all the usage figures are now correct, and I've...
Late breaking news ! Sept 2014 our house was struck by lightning and caught fire - most electronics were destroyed either by the fire or the lightning - including my HDR Fox T2 - at least when I switched it on, nothing happened. I kept it though in case one day I could get it fixed and in the...
Hi - no change in status re the numbers - tried your cmd line entries and this is the result
Humax HDR-Fox T2 (humax) 1.03.12/3.00
To return to the menu, type: exit
humax# mkfs.ext3 -m 0 -O sparse_super /dev/sda1
mke2fs 1.42.10 (18-May-2014)
/dev/sda1 contains a ext3 file system labelled...
The plot thickens - just tried a test recording and it wouldn't - The Disk is Full ! Checked Data Storage and it's telling me all zero's - Tried to format and it says, No capacity Too Large ! Maybe since I've got all my recordings off I should just change the disk ! The TV tuner seems to be...
OK I have successfully transferred all recordings off the Humax to an external drive, and re-run Fix-disk the Statistics in the Top Bar now look like this
Total space: 906.06 GiB
Used: -324294905856 bytes (-34%)
Free: 1.18 TiB (134%)
Dustbin: 4 KiB (0%)
I first deleted all the recordings, so the...
Hi Black Hole - no, I mean a portable hard disk connected to my desktop computer USB port, which is running Cute FTP and copying direct from the Humax to the H/Disk over my ethernet network
OK - I thought after my last reply that you'd probably say that, so I will run fix disk now - I'll let you know the result
That was quick - about 20 mins doing lots of Cleared and Fixed - rebooted into normal mode and it now sees the disk data - only it's reporting
885.8 gb Available
20.2 gb...
OK the bad blocks check is finished with zero bad blocks found, so I rebooted into normal mode and the Humax HDD Test passed OK but it's still showing zero gb as available used reserved and total, so is there anything else I can do in Maintenance or maybe tomorrow I'll try accessing the disk...
OK Thanks both - I've done the re-write on sectors 2104512 to 4519 as suggested and am now doing the check for bad blocks - it will take a while !
I'll post the results
Sorry - not too clear in this font - done it again and got this

Hi - Yesterday, my hard disk failed 1 year and 6 days after purchase ! Just out of warranty so I checked the Maintenance Option on this great Forum site, and have been running Opt 1 Fix Disk for a couple of hours now. Not sure if I should be worried yet since it clearly says in your...
Hi af123 - yes you are right - cleared browsing cache and it worked with smaller button as described in the notes - looks good. Will this be true for the Addendum note above ?
Addendum to that - just unscheduled an unwanted recording using WebIF over the internet and the Schedule Reboot button at the top of the screen did not work, but the one at the bottom of the Scheduled List did. Cheers
I don't know if it's relevant (I'm a non-techy user!) but this morning using the WebIF over local network only not internet, after scheduling some new recordings, I did not get the usual Restart is Required message, and there's not an option on that screen - checked the WebIF using the internet...
Hi - I have a similar problem with my HDR-FOX T2 1TB machine which I've just got to replace one which was destroyed in a house fire ! I've installed the latest CF software and the system is 1-03-12. With accessing the Humax through a browser direct, the EPG shows fine, though I note now it...
