Ah. Bit complicated that. No technical issues and I did assign the Humax a static IP address. However until very recently the box was very rarely networked.
I think what happened was the DHCP lease (on the router) expired and the Humax's IP was assigned to another device.
So, next time I...
Clicking the button did nothing:
Initial browser page: (clicking acknowledge depresses the button but nothing happens)
However... your reply indicated that it should work and reminded me that the box recently changed it's IP address... and I'd forgotten to allow the new IP on NoScript... D'Oh...
Hi,
I have a query regarding my Humax HDR-FOX T2.
Here's a grab of the versions etc.:
Web interface version: 1.4.9
Custom firmware version: 3.13 (build 4028)
Humax Version: 1.03.12 (kernel HDR_CFW_3.13)
Loader Version: a7.33
Some time ago I fitted a 2TB hdd and this is now...
I don't have an external caddy or whatever to allow the internal disk to connect via USB and I was hoping to avoid buying one 'cos I'm stingy :-)
Also, most of this has gone away. Just took the box out of standby to resume disk repair but it went into setup wizard, asking about languages etc...
Hi,
I'm having problems with my T2's hdd (click here to view).
Looking around I've read articles about replacing the hdd but nothing about adding a second hdd? Can the HDR Fox T2 accommodate more than one physical drive?
If so, what I had thought to do was to install a new hdd then mount old...
Sadly not, I fear:
humax# diag 4kalign
Running: 4kalign
--> This is a Standard Format drive.
Model Number: ST31000424CS
Logical/Physical Sector size: 512 bytes
Nominal Media Rotation Rate: 5900
Disk /dev/sdb: 931.5 GiB, 1000204886016 bytes, 1953525168...
Sorry, wasn't clear. When the long disk check starts there's a countdown that starts (for my box anyway) at over 13000.
It isn't until this gets down to 859 (was 863) that the sector repairs start appearing.
Would the version of linux be significant? I do have an old linux box lying around...
Update:
Unfortunately although these sector repairs (re-writes) always appear to succeed, there doesn't seem to be any way to determine how many remain.
I'm looking for a way to speed things up. Sadly, fixdisk with "-B -y" didn't make a great deal of difference.
The time maths are what worry...

BTW it took a bit of waiting but there are changes in the output:

OK, I ran it a few times with a couple of minutes between them. I also tidied up the output.

Ran it a few times and it does reflect the sector repairs on the fixdisk session.
Am I glad you can read wrapped output properly! :-)

Thanks for the reply, af123, much appreciated :)
Tried that a few times after it'd done a few sector repairs and got this (apologies for the wrapping, hope it makes sense):

Hiya,
(newbie first posting).
I've had a HDR-FOX T2 for several years and following disk issues ran fixdisk.
I upgraded the firmware using HDR_FOX_T2_1.03.12_mod_3.10.zip and also reinstalled the webif.
Fixdisk found multiple bad sectors but it was always able to rewrite them successfully, but...
