" hopefully you should now get a 'SMART Status PASSED'." - I don't!!!
Ok I think I know where this is going. Interesting thing is I have no problems in day to day use whatsoever. I'll just ignore it and if I start getting problems I'll reformat and see what happens. I've only got 115Gb of...
Thanks for all your input so far - sorry don't know how to do a text dump from the cmd prompt. Have run the command above and the results are in the uploaded screen dump. I'm not really bothered about loosing anything - would a reformat do the trick?
Thanks again - Alan
When accessing my HDR using the webif I get this warning message.

I have suffered with my HDR - FOX T2 not syncing to my LG telly via HDMI ever since I bought it. This occurs about 80% of the time irrispective of which order they are switched on. To remedy this I have been going through the change channel, switch off and quickly back on again routine which...
I too have had this problem when playing around. I too also had to power off at the back to reset the box.
With regards The Space it's a shame we can't get this as it actually looks interesting (well for me anyway). If you look at the website it says "The Space is a digital arts service from...
Hello Black Hole and all.
OK - so AVCHD may not have been the best format. Took ages and turned the original 700Mbish file into 4.5Gigs!! Seems this is blueray standard!! Looking at the video stream it had produced a file with .m2ts extension. I chucked it on a usb stick but Humax did not...
Aaaaha - another forum. Once i found Hummy.tv I didn't look any further.
That's a very useful list - so t'would appear MP4 video with MP3 audio don't work. Nero just made it like that??? Any idea why it would play OK in Windows Media Player? Is the MP4 / MP3 combination an acceptable...
Thanks Black Hole.
So just what does it expect to see? I've downloaded an AAC codec for my Nero which I will install shortly when it's finished making the current movie test. Out of interest I tried to find a codec for my Audition 3 but it seems it will not support "multichannel files". Is...
Ho ho - any idea why it should make a difference? Hummy plays the MP3 audio file OK.
I'm now redoing the video as an AVCHD (only chosen as it has an A and a C in it!!) saved as Mpeg4. Interesting to see if the sound is in AAC format. Just checked and my Audition cannot convert MP3 to AAC. If...
Good thinking DOH !!! There is a difference.
Audio Format - AAC
Sample Rate - 48Khz
Bit Rate - 125Kbps
Channel - Stereo
But don't know if that's the problem?
Can anyone shed some light on this problem.
I have an MP4 video recorded on my phone which plays fine on the Humax. I have edited it using Nero Vision 10 to make some cuts and then resaved it as an new MP4 file which plays fine on both of my PCs. The audio track was created using Audition 3...
I've just bitten the bullet and updated to latest official firmware and then installed latest custom firmware. My loader version is still 7.30. Should it have updated to 7.31 or is that a separate update?
Any comments appreciated.
I've had this happen as well whilst playing around. I tried powering down to standby but the epg still wouldn't work (as you say remote channel buttons and program up and down did). Ended up having to power off with the switch at the back.
I've just got home from helping a friend set up a new Sony Bravia Internet ready TV. The Internet Portal is VERY comprehensive including Iplayer, Youtube, Sky Player, Love Film, 5OD plus many many more.

Just like to comment that thanks are due to those working on the custom firmware and webif. The save last streamed content is brilliant. A couple of questions though.
Should I disable automatic OTA upates if using the custom firmware ?
If a scheduled update takes place will that overwrite...
Yes that is interesting, I noticed that myself. I have followed Humax Support instructions. I.e. Factory Default - no change. Manual Retune - no change. Full reformat - appears fixed, no problems 2 evenings in a row. So it looks like the HD was getting it's knickers in a twist !!
