     When the Foxsat-HDR finally goes tits up!

     You can keep the LNB but will then have the same limitations in terms of concurrent recordings. Going Unicable you can exploit the box's Full Band Capture (FBC), which should allow for up to 16 concurrent recordings.

     When the Foxsat-HDR finally goes tits up!

     I would consider something like the VU+ Ultimo 4K and purchase a Unicable LNB, which in theory is 4K-ready and it would give you up to 16 simultaneously recordings (in theory): http://vuplus.com/sub/sub0116.php I have no experience with this box so I don't know how stable it is and how easy it...

     Recording of non-freesat mode channels

     I have never tried to record in non-Freesat more so my comments are generic. 0.ts is the cyclic buffer for live recording that always runs, this is the one that enables you to pause a live program. This cannot be played on anything. This file builds up to something like 18GB, then stays on that...

     Force "retune" from web interface

     By powering them off do you mean that they actually don't have any power at all or that they are in standby? If in standby, they should wake up at 03:00 for the housekeeping boot which updates the EPG. You could consider leaving them in standby and install my new Remote Scheduling package (rs)...

     Remote Scheduling for Foxsat-HDR Now Available

     I'm running out of suggestions. Just to verify, you're saying that you did 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3, yet the channel database that the box re-created didn't have any default channels? You can export and import the recordings, just make sure you move the files as binary files. I assume CFW 4.1.3...

     For all users that weren't part of the beta program A few users aren't seeing the EPG on the RS server. This appears to be owing to your box's channel database being corrupted.

      Best approach to rebuild channel database

      Thank you Black Hole, the CFW actually rebuilds /opt/epg/channels.db if not found on the next boot. It appears that it takes two boots before WebIf Channel Editor works, perhaps because the channel database is out of sync with the .fcl file(s). However, this way any custom settings (channel...

      Best approach to rebuild channel database

      At least one user of the new Remote Scheduling package has an issue with the channel database (/opt/epg/channels.db) - TBL_SVC_DEFAULT is empty, whereas TBL_SVC is not. What's the best approach to completely rebuild it? A re-tune hasn't fixed the issue. Would it work to rebuild TBL_SVC_DEFAULT...
