What To Do with a Dead or Unwanted HDR-FOX, HD-FOX, or DTR-T1000/1010
Aha it's not just my newly pulled out of the loft and pressed into service vertical tuners box that does the "No signal" after a soft reboot. I think with two reports we should assume they all do this until proven otherwise. My desire to avoid any more vertical tuners boxes is reinforced...- Owen Smith

Enabling Folder or Recursive decrypt causes T2 to crash when processing is scheduled
I'm on 1.03.12, I've never used anything else since that became available. One of my boxes has vertical tuners so can only run 1.03.12. I've always been aware that if you need Audio Description then 1.02.20 is the least worst option but still has issues. I wasn't aware it can't handle...- Owen Smith

Stuck at START SYSTEM even with no hard disc
It did seem odd to me, I agree they shouldn't be involved. Is the timeshift buffer not encrypted for HD channels? The box has definitely lost something though and putting it into standby and coming back out fixes it. I had a quick look on eBay. There are a hell of a lot of HDR Fox T2s for sale...- Owen Smith

Beta [transportx] Additional 'transport' functions
Having recently tried to use slow motion and found how hard it is to freeze on the frame I want, I'll probably have a go at using this now. What I am finding is programme makers increasingly think we are all watching on 65" screens so they can show a flash of a mobile phone screen for less than...- Owen Smith

Enabling Folder or Recursive decrypt causes T2 to crash when processing is scheduled
I've never set a custom encryption key on any of my boxes, two of which are set to auto decrypt all videos. (My parents and aunt's boxes are not set to auto decrypt, since I have no direct access to them most of the time I run simpler configurations on them.)- Owen Smith

Stuck at START SYSTEM even with no hard disc
Something annoying I've found with this new vertical tuners HDR Fox T2: if I have custom firmware reboot the box, it never manages to tune into a channel after the reboot. It always claims the signal is scrambled or some such, I forget the exact wording but it's what happens when the box loses...- Owen Smith

Mention of CF 3.14 betas started as far back as 2020 that I'm aware of. Is it ever going to become a released version? This would be very useful. When I had to run a long SMART test on my Aunt's box (because a short SMART test wasn't finding the bad block she had) I had to arrange with her a...- Owen Smith

Do you know for certain that the stated region in RS does nothing? Do we have access to the source code?- Owen Smith

Stuck at START SYSTEM even with no hard disc
But unless you de-register the box from RS and then re-register it, RS will still see the box as being in its old region when it was first registered. I did a full auto tune and it did not fix my RS region even after the schedule sync'd.- Owen Smith

I had muxes manually tuned, I got the tuner up first because there was something I wanted to record. Then I had time so I put in the USB stick to put custom firmware 3.13 on.

Stuck at START SYSTEM even with no hard disc
I did a full automatic tune and selected Cambs & Beds which is my region (one out of region mux was seen), and then left the box on for a few hours to sync to RS. Nothing doing, and I know it synced because RS saw all the schedule entries disappear on the retune and then it saw them come back...- Owen Smith

Stuck at START SYSTEM even with no hard disc
Note when I tuned this HDR Fox T2 (and it's never been tuned before) I did it as a manual tune of specific UHF channels. I see multiple transmitters round here sometimes and the result is always a mess so I always manual tune now. However my other boxes will have been auto tuned at some stage...- Owen Smith

I swapped the front panel from my failed box onto my oldest and most used box. It's a lot more readable. One thing I noticed setting brightnesses with Redring is that the settings in Standby don't work, and I do have power saving in standby disabled.- Owen Smith

Looks like the end is in sight for old DVB kit
You are right, I mis-remembered. It was 2012 when I put my Arcam DV137 in the loft on getting an Oppo 95. And although my 26" Sony 16:9 TV at the time (also now in the loft) had a 1366 x 768 panel I was never able to get it to display the 768p output from my DV137. Ignore anything I said about...- Owen Smith

Most HD-Ready TVs actually had 1280x768 displays. My Arcam DV137 DVD-Audio/Video upscaling player had an option to set 768p as the output video format to get 1:1 pixel display on 768p HD Ready TVs.- Owen Smith

That's a category of device I did not know existed. I was aware of HD Ready, but are you sure that means it has an MPEG4 decoder? My understanding was HD Ready just meant 1280x768 or similar screen resolution, ie more than SD but not 1920x1080 and not with DVB-T2. I always understood MPEG4...- Owen Smith
