  [flatten] Automatically Removing Programmes from Series Folders
  
  I saw this last night (I was away and had limited access) and I was going to suggest modifying seriesfiler as all the key features are already in there. But now I get back and I find that af123 has beaten me to it!

  [unencrypt] Decrypt-in-place
  
  You can specify either the full path, or the name of the folder under "My Video". If you don't specify a path then it will process everything in and under "My Video".

  Humax recording encryption
  
  IPSec, SSL and TLS support null encryption and they are all "real encryption systems". I suspect that it's all academic though, because those are network encryption schemes that are designed to interwork between computers, so negotiation is feasible. In the case of the Humax, encryption either...

  Humax recording encryption
  
  Possibly you're thinking of 'null encryption' which is a test mode for cryptosystems that allows you to test everything except for the actual encryption.

  Trouble installing on HDFOXT2 - no problem on HDRFOXT2
  
  Yep, there's a logical partition in there with the extra ones inside it. It has a few different tools and OSs that I use when rescuing systems or when I need to spin up a copy of Linux. I plugged it in for testing my progbackup script so I could test the "Which drive do you want to back up to?"...

  Trouble installing on HDFOXT2 - no problem on HDRFOXT2
  
  I've got a USB stick plugged into my HDR that has 7 partitions - 1 vfat and 6 ext2, and they are all automatically mounted on media/drive1-7. This does sound like a driver problem to me.

  Humax recording encryption
  
  It was great to solve the decryption issue through the crafty use of database manipulation, DLNA and wget, but I have a nagging worry that this is something that Humax might want to lock down at a later date. I'd still love to find out how to do the decryption the 'proper' way.

  Humax recording encryption
  
  I'd be surprised if 3DES was in use because that would result in a lot of encryption processing. It's much more likely that AES is being used as that was designed to use less processing power.

  HD-FOX and Custom Software - USB Stick Issue
  
  You have probably moved on from here, but if you install the lsof package and run the lsof command, you will be able to see what process has which files open in the filesystem. That's what I use to find out if the humax process is still recording a file or not.

  The simplest way to do it is to uninstall the package which will remove the crontab entries. If you want to stop it manually, then you need to edit the crontab (/mod/var/spool/cron/crontabs/root) to remove all references to /mod/sbin/unencrypt and then restart the cron services...

  Yes, but the logic would mean that one directory would need to complete decryption before the other one started. In a lot of circumstances that would be OK, but I'm sure that it could be a problem for others.

  For the moment, the script will only process what is under the directory specified, or all recordings. I'd need to do some digging to work out how to send multiple directories to the script from the crontab.

  It'll keep checking indefinitely, but that's to account for new recordings. The program itself runs once every 15 minutes and just exits if there are no new recordings, so it shouldn't be a big overhead.
