  Looking for the thread that describes what I can expect from DLNA between two HDR-Fox T2
  
  I started a transfer of a new to me BBC HD program, total 13,999 Mb, at 12:56 into the old Humax and it finished at 13:31 (35 minutes). Achieved bandwidth: 6.66 Mbps The reported runtime of the program is 64 minutes (scheduled 60). I started a transfer of a different, new to me BBC HD program...

  So, today, I cannot reproduce the problem. We already had a hint yesterday: the file took approximately 40 minutes and its running time is reported by the WebIF browser as 58 minutes, so if copying and streaming is the same thing, then it should be comfortable. Here are some statistics: ls -l...

  It's been "a while" since I last handled a DB, I would have too much catch-up to do. I can see the timestamp of the last file copied for this recording on the CLI. I will do it again tomorrow, note down when I start and that should suffice.

  Looking for the thread that describes what I can expect from DLNA between two HDR-Fox T2
  
  I tried this method and the test file (STV HDTV) shows marvelously. I cannot readily make this the norm, but I can induce the occasional trip-hazard if needed. The Comtrends show some kind of measurement all the time and it's way up high as reported, whether I stream or not; the page refreshes...

  Looking for the thread that describes what I can expect from DLNA between two HDR-Fox T2
  
  Thanks. My adapters have the "Power Control" setting disabled, but I fixed the DHCP on the Humii (I like that :-)) too. Does this require less bandwidth? Can I control the size of the buffers? I checked the reported statistics. While streaming HD, I get over 100Mbps, it reports, and still it...

  Ok, I will look into it in a bit more detail (need to find the IPs of each Comtrend). I checked the dashboard of the one connected to the router (which is unambiguous in my head) and reported Tx is between 32 and 128Mbps for the five Comtrends that is sees; Rx between 22 and 113. I will...

  Thanks for the detailed answer, Black Hole. I am not sure it is relevant, but my router assigns a static IP to each of my two Humax boxes. Just for my understanding, through what means do you measure throughput between your powerlines? Also, is there any reason why one Humax on strong WiFi...

  Thanks. But do we understand the bottleneck? Black Hole was not surprised I was having issues. The Comtrends were routinely employed by BT to distribute HDTV. Is it all to do with the variable ability of the electrical network to transport data? Or is the Humax throughput borderline for what I...

  Thanks for the reply. Indeed it’s possible to connect the two devices directly as a test, but not as a permanent solution, even if it worked. Similarly, I will try your suggestion to connect them to the same switch as a test, but it doesn’t resolve the problem, as I cannot route the cable...

  Thanks. I don’t yet have all the info. They are connected to my router through Comtrend adapters. Trying to figure out what behaviour to report other than “throughput problems”.

  I am having network throughput problems that I am trying to debug. If I connect the two HDRs directly using a network cable, should they be exhibiting the same functionality as if connected to the same network? Thanks!

  Thanks for the suggestion. If one spells "root" with a 'b', as in "boot" (🤣), then the following sequence indeed sets Media to point to the USB drive next time it is pressed: DELAY30 MEDIA (0x6f) BLUE (0x1e) RIGHT (0x14) OK (0x13) DELAY5 DOWN (0x15) OK (0x13) DELAY5 EXIT (0x16) I believe that...

  Hello, and many thanks for ir. I am the OP of the typing bug. If you can also test that a macro called root is indeed executed on start it would be great. I created the following macro called root, which navigates to a first USB drive attached to the HDR-Fox T2: DELAY30 MEDIA (0x6f) BLUE...

  Thanks for the guidance, I also asked if the problem is a regression with the root macro. If root works for other macros, I will try the method you employ before I invest further on the ir macros.

  Thanks for the report. Is it an email or a thread I could follow?

When I click on the macro on the WebIF, it does...

  Thanks once again. Because the Humax remembers where it last was, the button will only work first time around. So I thought to add it as a start-up sequence, which would mean that Media would default to that after reboot. I could not implement/test that, as one has to name the macro "root" and I...
