     Replacement for HDR-FOX T2

     In what way do you think they will be limited in terms of watching and recording Freeview programmes by the lack of an Internet connection?

     System Flush Finally Fixes Developing Problems While Trialling CF

     As far as I know the firmware resides entirely in flash. I think you will find that you can install the standard firmware with the hard drive disconnected; I don't recollect actually doing it on an HDR-FOX T2 but I have certainly done it multiple times on earlier Humax models.

     System Flush Finally Fixes Developing Problems While Trialling CF

     That is exactly how the standard firmware works as I understand it with all the software in flash RAM. The custom firmware must put some some software on the HDD because there is not enough storage on the motherboard.

     Scheduled recordings failed

     In my case after doing a reset, the recorded programs were preserved and can be played without problems. I dd lose the schedule of future recordings and the settings.

     I suspect the issue will be the version of SMB is disabled on the IPhone. Perhaps this question on StackOverflow helps https://stackoverflow.com/questions/74854073/setting-up-a-connection-to-an-smb1-server-in-my-ios-app

     Another computer question...

     I moved away from TSOHost some years ago because the quality of support deteriorated markedly when the original owners sold out. I am now with Krystal and the support and reliability is good but the cheapest package (for one site only) is now £70 and the next package up is £110 for 5 sites...

     I suggest you report your findings to Humax support in the probably vain hope that they might know a way around this.

     Thank you :-)

     If you install the custom firmware you can get access to the SMART data that the hard drive stores to give an indication of its health. Not easy to interpret but plenty of users here can give you advice about whether the data means the hard drive needs replacement.

      PVR loses all scheduled programme reservations

      It is a fairly common problem with the 9300T and I haven't seen anyone post a solution. The schedule of future recordings is stored in Flash RAM on the motherboard so I guess the problem must be on the motherboard and hence not easy to repair.

      HDR-FOX T2 HDD Replacement

      On a Foxsat I think you need Nowsters patch to remove the encryption when the program is recorded. It won't help with existing recordings.

      System Flush Finally Fixes Developing Problems While Trialling CF

      The issue with networking isn't signal related; it is believed that the Humax code isn't good at handling network errors which then leads to crashes. I would be a be a bit surprised if it was happening at startup though.

      I have standard firmware 1`.03.13 (NB not 1.03.12) which you can download from Click her to download 1.03.13 I think you will need to rename it as hdr_fox_t2_upgrade.hdf.

      I think you need to use rufus (or similar software) to organise the USB stick in the required format. See https://rufus.ie/en/ I used it to install a dual boot system (Windows 11 and Debian 11) on a modern laptop.
