How old is this box now? I think I must have had mine for about eight years now, maybe more. Without the custom firmware it would for sure have been packed away up in the attic to be replaced by my a more feature-rich modern STB. The custom firmware means that my Hummy is still going strong and...
Alexa can already control the Harmony directly, I'm talking about controlling the Humax directly with Alexa, eg over your LAN. The link I posted talks about a new API being developed by Amazon for the Alexa which will allow an Alexa app to control compatible STB's.
Hi all, my guess is there have been questions about controlling the Humax via an Echo before, but my search didn't find any obvious ones. I have a Harmony Hub, so can use that, but I was wondering if anybody is looking to see if the Echo can control the box directly, or might be able to do so in...
Forgive my blindness for not spotting an already comprehensive compilation of threads. I've tried a couple of the free programs (AVIDemux for editing out adverts and Handbrake for recoding) and also the time-limited demo of VideoReDo. I found AVIDemux and Handbrake very easy to use after a...
Can people please recommend what they think is the best (Windows freeware) software for editing .ts video files and converting them to more common formats and keeps video quality as close as possible to the .ts files, whilst reducing their size? Thanks.
Not until I get a new streaming device, then I'll re-enable it and block the NAS on it to stop the reboots. It's got plenty of room to hold programmes between now and then. I've just got to work out what box to get.
Box at least 3 years old, bought from Dixons in-store, and never opened up or changed the drive:
>>> Beginning diagnostic 4kalign
Running: 4kalign
--> This is a Standard Format drive.
Model Number: ST3500312CS
Logical/Physical Sector size: 512...
Editing Wiki: I think I may have worked out one of the reasons why some USB drives don't appear to work when carrying out a customer firmware upgrade. Forgive me, if this has already been posted before. I got hold of a USB drive which was already formatted in FAT32, I copied the firmware onto...
I've got a little problem with my Hummy and hope somebody can help. I'm currently getting a green screen on my box. It's happened before, but a reboot normally sorted it. Not now though. If I reboot now, I get the normal Humax loading screen, thgen about 1 or 2 seconds of video, then back to...
