Many thanks for your kind offer but I've just had a look at the HDR Fox Forum that Black Hole suggested and the general consensus seems to be that SSDs aren't a good idea for this application.
Hi Martin,
Do we have any idea what 300TBW means in real time use, it seems like a lot of data, but what about the "Rewind Live TV" . That will be recording the broadcast channel all day long.
SSD might not be a good idea.
I was thinking of putting a larger drive in my HDR1100S and wondered if anyone had tried an SSD?
I'd be interested to hear from anyone who has done this.
Thanks for all your advice.
Unfortunately, trying new cables and earthing failed to resolve the situation, the Mutant has gone now and has been replaced by a Foxsat HDR which works fine.
Before you all start shouting "Boo Traitor" I'll apologise in advance, but the Enigma Machine is not a replacement for our Humax it's a replacement for Sky.
I don't like the things I've read about the Arris Freesat Box, so I bought a Mutant HD51 Enigma 2 box with 1TB hard drive. I like the fact...
I wondered if any one knew the location of a complete set of instructions for the DRT-T4000.
I can only find the user guide and not all the detailed "stuff" we like to know.
I'm going to our local Mall tomorrow, I'll see if Curries or John Lewis have one on demonstration.
Maybe they'll have a Manhattan too. I can try that at the same time.
I think the FVP-5000T sounds like the one for us. We don't do file exporting but we do have a TV in the bedroom. Is there an "output" facility to hardwire to a second TV.
By the way, via the link in your Signature, I've read the Newbies' Guide and I won't be saying Hi or Bye on future posts.
Hi Brian,
Thanks for the info regarding Freeview/Youview.
We took out our Sky Subscription "pre-covid" and managed to get it dramatically reduced when covid hit us in the pocket (down to "just" £25.00).
"Post-covid" we are not in a position to pay for Sky Q, so at the end of the contract it's...
Hi Guys,
As a Newbie looking to get my first Freeview box (coming from Sky Q and Freesat) I'm definitely confused at to which recorder to buy, especially as there are 8 different refurbished models to choose from on the Humax Refurbished web page Humax Refurbished.
I'm not sure I even know the...
Hi Guys,
I am now the proud owner of a Foxsat HDR Freesat Recorder, I already had a Humax HDR 1000S.
I've heard a lot about the Foxsat Custom Firmware, but I have not been able to find a comprehensive list of the facilities it provides.
If someone could point me in the right direction, it would...
