      Humax recording encryption

      I tried copying several at the same time, but it did not seem to work for me. Must try that again.

      Humax recording encryption

      Yes, unless it is 3DES, in which case breaking it seems nearly impossible. Even for DES the effort is huge, probably more than the box is worth. But I have another idea: instead of decoding each programme individually, it should be possible to concatenate them. Because ECB is used, every block...

      Humax recording encryption

      Well, I had a go at this, too. It looks like a 64bit block cypher is used in ECB mode. But the key is not stored in memory, assuming it is DES or 3DES. So that's a bit of a shame, because the decryption process is kind of annoying on the HD.

      As much as I like Emacs, in a terminal and on an embedded system it is no fun. It just takes too long to load, and it has too many buffers in the background. But I am a very happy user of jed - a light nimble Emacs clone with mostly compatible commands (although the replace commands have some...

      Debian works

      I thought I give Debian a try, and it seems that it works quite nicely in a chroot environment. Only Debian Lenny (oldstable) works - anything since Squeeze (the current stable) seems to be incompatible with the old kernel running on the Humax. Still, you get a very complete Linux environment...

      Perl trouble

      Yes, compiling perl can be a quite a pain. What is the difference between MIPS-I and MIPS32? Or maybe I should ask why are the libraries on the Humax compiled for MIPS-I, when the CPU supports the full MIPS32 instruction set? Debian mipsel is compiled for MIPS32, and it seems to work just...

      Perl trouble

      I am trying to run get_iplayer - a perl script, but it is not going smoothly. perl seems to have some issues loading native libraries? For example, when I try to run the cpan script, I get: Can't locate loadable object for module IO in @INC (@INC contains: /mod/lib/perl5/5.10.0/mipsel-linux...

      Full libc?

      PS: Actually I got flvstreamer to work just fine with libuc. So I will see whether get_iplayer works, too. However, a full libc6 might still be a useful addition.

      Full libc?

      Would it be possible to include a full libc into the ROM fs? I am asking because I am fiddling with flvstreamer, and it does not seem to work with libuc. However, I can use the binary from debian mipsel linked against the standard libc, and it works fine! Only setting up libc (and especially...

      Is Iplayer different on Humax?

      Good point. Is anybody working on a port of get_iplayer for the Humax? It would be very convenient, and it could be programmed to download programs during the night. I think the main sticking point is flvstreamer. I gave it a try, and it compiles just fine, but it does not work. Ideas?

      Serial port?

      And on the software side you can see a driver for two eSATA ports under /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:01:00.0. I hope we can find the connector...

      Serial port?

      PS: I managed to take a few picture with my phone. Never thought the camera is much use, but for peeping through tiny holes it seems to do ok. https://plus.google.com/u/0/photos/107980461794628867699/albums/5710875496977390737?hl=en My guess: eSATA, 2 USB ports, 1 serial port, and a SONY...

      Play recorded files on PC

      I have the same question, and I got the HDR mode working. However, it does not seem to be the most convenient solution. Is there a way to improve it? I could imagine using the HDR software if it supports recording, for example. It may just be a small thing, such as a question of the...

      Serial port?

      That's possible, and another USB port would be quite useful. The kernel says that the box has 4 interfaces: 2 USB 1.1 and 2 USB 2.0. I am not sure whether that makes a total of 2 or 4 ports, but either way there should be another USB port somewhere. The 4 pin connectors are obvious candidates...

      Hardware Improvements?

      I just got a Humax HD-Fox T2, and apart from the encryption issue I am very impressed by it. I want to use it as a PVR (but I didn't want to spend three times as much on the HDR version). Peeking inside, I wonder whether there is more potential in the HD. There is one connector labelled UART0...
