     Custom Firmware Has Gone

     Yes, Telnet. If people need assistance with that then they can ask. Indeed - as you already suggested that I didn't mention it. But while it may correct any underlying problem which caused this one, it probably won't fix it. It may need a force reinstall of either lighttpd or webif as well.

     Custom Firmware Has Gone

     ...Telnet will require instruction for the uninitiated (see wiki for general Telnet instructions, then maybe cat the relevant files and copy-paste them from the Telnet terminal). If the unit is stable unless playing back recordings, in my view the first step should be a fixdisk via the Telnet menu.

     Custom Firmware Has Gone

     Thanks for the heads up. I should have said that it crashes playing stuff off a USB stick as well, so I think the HDD may be OK. It's 2TB and not that old. I can also access media on a NAT server and play compatible files. When I do a reboot it says Custom FW 3.13.

     Empty Webif EPG

     Ran a fixdisk and now the EPG is behaving normally. Can’t see if there was any fix as I’m unfamiliar with its log.

      Which implies you got into Maintenance Mode in the end? What is? Hardly "normal" if the ring is blue! Have you done a power cycle (at the rear switch)?

      No need. The CF fixdisk option (from the Maintenance Mode menu) is as non-destructive as they come. Anything you lose will not have been available for copy.
