Sorry the HD FOX+ uses a different file system from the HD-FOX T2 based boxes, and hence the custom firmweare here is not going to work on your box, and i don't think anybody on here has looked into doing any work at hacking this box.
However I have noticed on other forums/websites that people...
Sorry for the cross posting, but with reference to the thread i started yesterday, I was suggesting an addtion to the xtra portal, by means of allowing customisation of the portal by allowing users to add links to the TBC menu via the webif. This would allow users to directly configure their...
FYI I have compiled Joe (Joes own editor) for the box as its compact, and does not depend on much at all. i also tried nano, but gave up due to dependancy issues.
I would send the file over to af123 - but it would probably be just as easy to recompile it (or if you do want it hows best to get...
I was thinking that now we have easy access to the web browser we could think about adding a custom links section to the portal.
My thoughts were to use the TBC menu on the newer custom portal and add into the webif a way of customising the links on this menu.
The outcome of this would be to...
Yes it may do - How are you connecting the boxes together? I was assuming that like me you have ripped up all your floors and laid down loads of cat6 cable around your house :)
SMB file transfer has loads more header data in it than DLAN does so to transmit x amount of data you actually use...
Samba should be upto doing the job in theory. Obviously there is a lot of overheads required to translate the file into SMB packages, transmit them accross the network, and then convert them back into a usable format. I'm not sure the processor in the box is going to be upto this as its not...
FYI my HD-FOX T2 has four holes on the main board for a header to be soldered onto with UART0 writen next to it. Before af123 and radeon managed to recompile the flash I was working on soldering a pin header onto it and getting into the box via this route, but gave up after the custon firmware...
To confirm I have the same issue with Sky Player - this may well me because Sky have removed the ondemand options for licensing issues until it is fully realeased after they ahve realised we have 'hacked' into it.
I'd be glad we have this and leave it at that. I'm sure it will show up and work...
Thanks for the reply. I was just thinking of a way of making the custom portal a 'replacement' for the humax one instead of an add on. Im now using Sky player all the time as I don't have multi room as it costs a bomb :)
I'll have a look at making some changes myslef
What would e nice (and simple as far as I can see) would be to have the iplayer button on the cutom portal as well. This would avoid having to swap between the two portals to switch from BBC to Sky
For that mater why don't we just put all the existing poral buttons onto the custom one, then...
However what I have not managed to get to work is two harddrives or a harddrive nd a USB stick at the same time (hence why the Hd mod firmware comes with the telnet server enabled as you can't have both in at the same time) - i'm sure this is just a file system detection/mounting problem however...
As a thought (mainly because I'm now going through a huge program after I'd writen it and changing virtually every line :) ) would it not be a good idea now to think about making this 'multi-language' ? The way i'm implimenting this is to simply make a table in a database for translations and...
My Sony Bravia screen take a good 10-15 seconds to sync with the box - after flashing - out of sync range a few times, and a display of various colours on the screen it finally gets a picture up - no issues with audio. You would have thought that implimenting what is a well known and recoginised...
This is going to b very dificult to do - although theroeticly I could see how it 'could' be done, as the portal is loaded up of an external set of servers run by humax - there was a thread on this some time back when we were looking at it.
What would have to be done is to get the portal...
Yep. They just come up blank except the header banner (which does work as a link back to the main menu) Obviously this is just my ox - ill have a look into it and get back to you
BTW I do like the new package managment page, however it may be easier to see whats installed or not if the...
Been away for a while, but well done with the new interface, and the fix for the HD.
I'v noticed however that the Settings page, and Browse media files pages are not displaying anything 9the two writen in jim
This may be a HD specific issue - if it works on the HDR -ill investigate when I get...
Reverse enginearing the humax tv portal program? Well that won't be too hard :) The entire program is staticly compliled so there are not even libs we can change, so we would have to start by first working out what language it was writen in (which will not be that hard) but then decompiling it...
The reason you did not get any answers is that I suspect that nobdy else has come accross this before and/or found a solution to it. Anyway Welcome! - I know is seems as if this forum is mainly a load of us developing software mods for these boxes, but in reality there is not much else to...
