Manipulating Radio Recordings
Sweet - ffmpeg now seems to be working on my box as well (it was broken before) I might have a go at writing a radio demuxer but I need to work out a sensible rationale that's going to stop it clashing with other crontab stuff, particularly unencrypt. Maybe it's time for a housekeeper programme...- Sam Widges

[unencrypt] Decrypt-in-place
My apologies - you have done so much good debugging and it wasn't your fault :oops: I transferred some code from my backup script into unencrypt and skimped on the testing. Unfortunately, because unencrypt is run from cron, you need to specify the full path for most commands and I failed to...- Sam Widges

Sod it, I did it over lunch - give it an hour or so and unencrypt 0.1.2b-1 should be available in the repo.- Sam Widges

Formating time for a 1TB HD
I tried formatting a 1.5TB Samsung Story drive over the weekend and it sat on the "Processing" stage for 4 hours and achieved nothing apart from trashing the partition table. The drive didn't even sound like it was being accessed. I formatted the drive using ext3 on another Linux box, formatted...- Sam Widges

HDR-FOX T2 1TB Freezing
That disk isn't well, or the power supply is failing. In fact, the 'freezing' symptoms sound very like what I had with my old Topfield where the capacitors degraded and the power supply would go out of spec: the remote control would stop working, recording and playback then became unreliable...- Sam Widges

Possible 4GB Limit for DLNA Streaming
Unfortunately, I can't get 4 Homeplugs working together in this house so most of that box's connectivity will be via wireless (already waiting for a suitable dongle from eBlag) but it has already been hacked and there is fun to be had :D- Sam Widges

There's a new version of unencrypt (0.1.2a) to account for the wrong version of wget being used, which would break decryption of files > 4GB.- Sam Widges

When I try to access media server Humax reboots Fox HDR t2
Replacement isn't necessarily a problem: If you install the custom firmware, you can copy off the good TV using my backup utility (http://hummy.tv/forum/threads/backing-everything-up.697/) - I've just had mine replaced and I'm now in the middle of restoring 700+G of files that would otherwise...- Sam Widges

HDR-FOX T2 1TB Freezing
A quick update... I didn't return the paperwork until last Friday (2nd December) for a variety of reasons.

HDR-FOX T2 1TB Freezing
You can't assume that the disc has been replaced, they could just have done a factory reset before sending it to you, but the important thing is that you still have the rest of your 2 year warranty left.- Sam Widges

Just a thought - are you using Accurate Recording (http://hummy.tv/forum/threads/accurate-recording-ar-padding-and-lost-series-links.858/) ? I had to disable it because I kept losing BBC programmes in the evenings (http://hummy.tv/forum/posts/3291/).- Sam Widges

[unencrypt] Decrypt-in-place
There's no obvious reason that anything should fail, all it's doing is streaming a file which it should be able to do while recording anyway. However, in the interests of preserving your anatomy, and if you're happy editing crontab, it would be possible to set to only run at less vital times...- Sam Widges

Cannot access outside LAN after update
Check the gateway setting in the master settings, what you are seeing is consistent with a gateway problem and your DNS server being outside the network (or the same as a now unreachable gateway).- Sam Widges

The only way that I can duplicate that behaviour is if I hit return before 'y'. I suspect it's a terminal emulator problem. Try the following command unencryptsetup "/mnt/hd2/My Video" It has the same effect, but you don't need to answer 'y'.- Sam Widges

Switching the Humax from wireless to cable
When you send a wireless packet then no other devices can communicate until that packet has been sent - only one device on a wireless network can send at a time. If your network can support, say, 50 packets per second and the Humax uses 45 of those packets, then the other devices (phone, laptops...- Sam Widges

As Black Hole said, you had confirmed correctly, I'll add some better text to save confusion in the next version. If you run the command "crontab -l" you should see a line that contains a reference to unencrypt and it should be pointing to the '/mnt/hd2/My Video' directory - that will confirm...- Sam Widges
