      U&W not decoding

      I've had to go through the process again today, Blaze, various Legend and True Crime channels. Still working with a channel delete and rescan 👍

      U&W not decoding

      Thanks for that David. There are a frustrating number of things to reconfigure after a factory reset, so good to know this is an option. So it seems to me that the new parameters for U&W aren't different enough, so the HDR keeps the old info on a rescan because everything is the same expect the...

      U&W not decoding

      Well life got in the way for a week, apologies for my lack of response. Tim, you're a star. A factory reset and all is back. How utterly bizarre. Hopefully this helps someone in the future. As usual, this forum helps me out. Always appreciated ☺️

      U&W not decoding

      Wow, that's nice detecting. It did seem from my downlinking yesterday that there's nothing that should prevent this working, but that may be really useful information. Still waiting for another response from UKTV, maybe they'll get back to me after the weekend.

      U&W not decoding

      Well, I had a bit of quiet time this morning, and I'm not much the wiser. I've looked at all channels at 12129V, and a couple of others elsewhere that appear to have the same parameters as U&W. The helpful webmaster at Lyngsat confirmed U&W did change to MPEG4 on the 11th from MPEG2. U&W now...

      U&W not decoding

      Yeah, I'll try an old 1290, it's not used for transmission anymore. The 8200's we still use are old enough to be Ericsson branded but now run Mediakind firmware. In fact the 1290 may be older than my Foxsat!

      That's interesting Tim. The 1000 is more modern, but not much - is that right?

      U&W not decoding

      Thanks Dino. I'm also CF and nowsters installed. The Tandberg will give me things like sampling type, gop, encoding profile - the sort of thing we should not ever need to care about. As you say, it's all guesswork at the moment. Hopefully I can find the time to compare a few channels, but...

      U&W not decoding

      Well that's bizarre. Nice work with the time shift buffer. I think I'll try and contact UKTV and enquire. Just hope it's not the start of something that our old boxes can't decode. Thanks for confirming it's not just me, appreciate it. If work is quiet this weekend I'll try and get a Tandberg...

      U&W not decoding

      Afternoon all. This is odd. Just wondering if anyone else has seen it My Foxsat HDR has recently stopped decoding u&w from a Freesat tune. Black screen with the 'channel is scrambled or not currently available' box, no audio, but subtitles are showing? A quick look at lyngsat tells me this is...

      Unable to telnet into Foxsat HDR

      Thanks again, there's a lot of useful info there. I've had the drive out and via CrystalDiskInfo on Windows there is no SMART fail or warning, all appears well - reallocated, pending and uncorrectable sectors fine. Details attached (for my memory as much as anything) It looks like a cmd format...

      Thank you. I expected it might be time to get the screwdriver out, let's see what we get.

      Unable to telnet into Foxsat HDR

      At what point indeed? Just thought I'd ask before taking it apart again. As stated, I don't know why those errors appear on a newly formatted drive, but they're suggesting file system not hardware. To me anyway, because I don't understand what they actually mean.

      Unable to telnet into Foxsat HDR

      I've been strugging with this for a month now. fix-disk ran for 48 hours. Once it got past 52400000 inodes I cancelled it. No idea how far through that is on a 512G drive. Still occasional glitches in a very few recordings. So today I formatted. Just from the standard Humax menu. And yet a...

      Well thank you. Even though I'm feeling pretty foolish right now, thank you so so much. fix-disk running now, I'll see what results it gives.

      Unable to telnet into Foxsat HDR

      Morning all. I'd love a bit of help here. Running CF 4.1.3 for years without issue on a Foxsat-HDR. FTP working fine , custom firmware all good. Wired network, fixed IP. It's done everything I need thanks to the wonders of the custom firmware, and this is my first problem. I've had a couple...
