2TB HDD Corruption: Repair options?
Likewise, but motivation failed because basically once you've got to the "disk out" stage you might as well recover any precious content to known good storage (ddrescue, even) and then wipe the suspect disk to clear any pending bad sectors. Mileage could vary for users with fewer scrap disks...- /df

Green screen known as HDMI handshake for me finally cured
In principle, yes, because the recording data path is separate from the HDMI display data path. The analogue display data path is separate too, which is why you can still see the SCART output even when HDMI is showing GS.- /df

Green screen known as HDMI handshake for me finally cured
Indeed, and the pin-out in the page that I linked. The sink might have a small resistor or similar internally between pins 18 (5V from source) and 19 so that the final connection sets the source's pin 19 high. What wasn't clear from this in OP was this If the Humax is not being sent HDCP...- /df

Green screen known as HDMI handshake for me finally cured
So this is the Hot Plug Detect line, the last-to-make pin at the bottom-left if pointing the plug away from you with the narrow side uppermost. Apparently as the cable is connected, the sink (display) reflects the 5V signal from pin 18 back to the source (PVR, in this case), telling it that a...- /df

2tb seagate skyhawk, 1st bad sector after 4 years
The messages from fixdisk are mostly e2fsck messages about ext3 filesystem accounting, Like double-entry book-keeping in actual accountancy (so I hear) the ext3fs filesystem keeps duplicate information about the filesystem which can be cross-checked in an audit (but may be inefficient to check...- /df

replacing hard disk
I don't have a /usr/bin/humaxtv to hand just now but I expect that the template for the smartctl command may be found in its strings output, as the e2fsck -p command is; or maybe it calls a SMART library. Even if it runs smartctl, you won't see a smartctl process hanging: the protocol is that...- /df

Not as I recall, but it was long time ago, and I didn't exercise it much. What appears to happen is that the settop program somehow crashes some stored database(s). The box may carry on apparently working, but with certain weirdnesses. On restarting you may have to retune (presumably the...- /df
