      File System Gone Read Only

      Hi, I have the Fox T2 with custom firmware which has been running normally for some years. A few days ago I was transferring a bunch of files by FTP, partway through the process the transfers failed and now it appears the whole file system is read only. We can't add or delete anything. We can...

      Duplicates with "-DECRYPT" suffix

      Hi, Since reinstating automatic decryption a week or so ago, we've had a few recent programs appear in the Media listing duplicated, one with suffice "-DECRYPT" in the displayed name. Looking in media from the web page, or with FTP these have the original file name but with "dec" at the end...

      Humax HDR-Fox-T2 - Blank Green Screen output on HDMI

      Hi. Our old Humax started showing a fault where a second or so after booting up it switches to displaying a blank green screen. It's been tested with different HDMI inputs on the TV, for example swapping with the DVD player. The inputs work OK with the DVD, Also tested with a different TV...

      Best or Easiest Way to Convert .ts to MP4

      Hi, I suppose this isn't strictly a custom firmware issue, but I wonder if there are any suggestions for the best way to convert the recordings in ".ts" format into MP4. This arises because our Humax is dying and there's some stuff I want to save and transfer to its replacement. Although we're...

      How to get rid of the "Failed Recording" emails

      Hi, I was wondering how to acknowledge or clear the Failed Recording emails, so that I won't get another one until next time a recording actually fails. The email I get every day lists six failed recordings in one folder (I found and deleted one zero length file in that directory a week or so...

      Replacement HDR-FOX T2 - no EPG on Remote Scheduling

      Hi, Our HDR-FOX T2 was killed by nearby lightning, I've sourced a replacement and installed latest custom firmware and all the packages I think I had before. One was RS. This doesn't quite follow the instructions since I was registering it with a previously used email address. It seemed to...

      Hi, I need to change my email address as my existing provider is shutting down. My new email is active in parallel at the moment, so I'm going round changing to the new password wherever necessary. I can't see how to change the account on rs.hpkg.tv Is there a way? I thought maybe just...

      Wide Screen MP4 Playback - correct header and stream settings?

      Hi, I've read comments about needing a fudge to get the Humax to play wide screen MP4 files correctly (set screen to 4:3 and format to Letterbox 16:9). That works but of course messes up the settings for anything else. Is there anything that can be done with the source MP4 so that the Humax...

      Upgrade From Customised Firmware v3.00 to new v3.13

      Hi, My box is currently running v3.00. What is the process to install the current version v3.13? Do I just install via the same process as if it was being installed for the first time? If so, will all the various packages be retained, or do I need to reinstall these? Any risk to...

      FTPP transfer to Humax suddenly dog slow

      Hi, I've used the function regularly, typically to transfer BBC iPlayer downloads for programs where we missed the live broadcast. Can't remember exactly the last time, but would have been in July if not later. Everything was normal then. FTP client is Filezilla Portable v3.23.02 running...

      RF Noise from Power Supply - Sourcing and replacing

      Hi, Our HDR Fox T2 has been identified as creating radio interference, of frequency and strength sufficient to interfere with ADSL broadband, the so-called "REIN". The recommendation from Openreach is to either replace the unit, or replace the power supply. The interference continues as...

      Repeat emails from remote schedule portal

      Hi, A while ago we lost all the HD channels, and as a result the Humax failed to record a couple of programs on the 20th October. I got an email alert next morning, which is great. However it continues to send the same email every morning, still referring back to that failed recording on...

      Lost all channels on the HD Mux suddenly

      Hi, We haven't had HD compatible equipment until a month or so ago when we got the Humax HDR-FOX. We're served from a relay so only have the three Muxes 1 (ch58), 2 (49) and HD (54). All were properly picked up when we first did a channel scan. Yesterday we found we'd suddenly lost all...

      Copying video files onto the Humax

      Hi, What's the best way of loading video files onto the Humax? I've seem references to using FTP but can't get that to work (I can ftp, open the connection, login, but no commands can be executed - not even ls which returns "502 command not implemented". Just for the hell of it I tried...

      How to switch on Accurate Recording

      Hi, Sorry if this is a basic question, I haven't found the explicit answer in either the manual or on the forums. With the HDR-FOX-T2, is Accurate Recording enabled by default, if padding is set to 0 and 0? That's how mine's set, and the first few recordings have all missed the end, with a...
