It's not a question of "first". The purpose is to ensure the crashing is not the consequence of a corrupted boot image, and the instructions explicitly say:It was not clear to me if 1B was requiring the official firmware to be installed first.
Note "Humax" not "Custom", so that it is a standard boot image for the purpose of baselining. The instructions also say:Download and install (or re-install) the latest Humax firmware via USB.
...meaning the Humax firmware will have over-written it and custom firmware will need reinstating afterwards (if desired). Maybe I could reword it a bit, if this is causing confusion.It will require custom firmware users to re-install their custom firmware.
However, there is no reason to believe a custom firmware download might not work when a standard firmware would.
This does not sound good. I assume the screen showed the proper sequence of "downloading" then "programming", each with a progression from 0 to 100% (with pauses)? Try again, with a standard Humax update this time.I then restarted the machine and now it only shows initially:
L000
It then comes up with E-OS until I turn off the machine.
If it were not unzipped, it would not have been accepted as a firmware updateBTW
Just checking - zip files do need unzipping before installation
