Folder Names - Old ones sticking around
Cheers. That seems to have worked. I could have sworn I tried this before with little success... but seems to be working now.- philbean

Folder Names - Old ones sticking around
My biggest bugbear with my beloved Hummy is the folder names not being updated/updatable. Example of what I mean... I recorded the first F1 Grand Prix of the year, the Bahrain GP. Now every GP thats recorded is placed in a folder it names "The Bahrain GP". Even if I delete that folder and...- philbean

Signal - Strength / Quality
It is ARQ-B giving me 30% Although viewing is OK now I have suffered with dropouts in the past and was just looking at it whilst everything is working (rather than trying to figure it out when I have no signal at all) I'm not overly worried, just thought 30% is quite low considering my...- philbean

Signal - Strength / Quality
Trying to get my head around these.. I'm 10km from Winter Hill. Can see the mast through the window. I'm get 100% quality on all channels (at the mo) with 50% strength on most mux's and 30% strength on a couple of others. Does this sound right or should I be getting better strengths? and if...- philbean

Issues after the 7 March retune event
Getting bizarre now. Rescanned again last night. COM6 appeared! but poor quality. Com8 disappeared !!!! Tried again this morning. COM8 back. Good quality (at the mo). COM6 still there but poor. On the signal strength screen both bars are all over the place. Up, down, up, down... like a...- philbean

Issues after the 7 March retune event
Don't know if all the country is affected yet. Winter Hill here. They moved some of the MUXs round on Wednesday. Again! Everything was fine beforehand. Now after the retune I've lost COM6 completely (TalkingPictures, Yesterday, Spike etc) The Humax won't pick them up at all. Shows zero signal...- philbean

Disable recommendations ?
Is there any way to disable the recommendation feature? Where you select something to record and then the box (or specifically Channel 4) 'recommends' something completely unsimilar to record also. Thought there might be a package to do this if it was technically possible.- philbean

Black/White marks at top of screen on 'cheaper' channels
At the top of the screen on a few of the 'cheaper' channels, I have a black line.. maybe 1 or 2 pixels deep with white bits. Like its supposed to be some sort of data line hidden in the picture, but its being shown. Channels affected are Talking Pictures TV, Sony Movies, Forces TV.. The line...- philbean

New LG Smart TV. Audio dropouts via HDMI
Can't remember exactly as the TV has gone back now but 2 of the programmes affected were that BBC docu on great cities of the world and GPs Behind Closed Doors on 5. Audio dropouts were in the middle of the programme. Nothing to do with ad breaks or ratio switching. Back on my old Toshiba TV...- philbean

COM7 keeps disappearing
I did add a booster to try and fix it. Should I try replacing that with an attenuator then ? All this to get Talking Pictures TV ! :)- philbean

COM7 keeps disappearing
Bit of googling and I've found the exact problem affecting various other Humax boxes here.... https://myhumax.org/forum/topic/hdr-2000t-com7-mux-problem Been going on for years it seems and nobody has figured it out yet. Oh well. :(- philbean

COM7 keeps disappearing
I realise that. It doesn't explain the signal going from good to non-existant to good again etc etc If it was just a weak signal then it would be consistantly weak. Breakups and pixelation etc. It also wouldn't explain, when I had the new TV, and I was getting no signal on the Hummy yet a...- philbean

COM7 keeps disappearing
Sorry I think I'm confusing issues by having 2 TVs involved in this. My current (OLD) TV is 9 years old and cannot receive FreeviewHD at all through its tuner. So a splitter is of no use. The only way I can view HD channels is from the Hummy. The only reason I discovered that the Hummy box is...- philbean

COM7 keeps disappearing
I'm back on my old TV now which cannot receive COM7 so an aerial bypass won't work. I can try the analogue connection idea though. Just to confirm its a HDMI thing.- philbean

Does your TV have visible backlight banding Martin? I'm loathed to try another LG set now.- philbean

COM7 keeps disappearing
Hmm.. I've tried 3 HDMI cables so far. Latest is supposed to be a well screened decent one. Hasn't made any difference. And if it was just HDMI interference.. wouldn't I lose signal all the time? I can get weeks of near perfect signal.. then suddenly.. gone. Baffling.- philbean

COM7 keeps disappearing
Seeing as I've started a right can of worms with LG TV owners :) .. I thought I'd try and solve my other, long running, problem too. The Hummy keeps losing COM7 channels. Not breaking up a bit. Losing. Completely. One day I'll have good signal strength COM7 (75%+) and everything will be fine...- philbean
