Hi all,
I've had a HDR-FOX Freeview for around 12 months. For a while it was fine, then I had a problem or two and discovered/installed the custom firmware (delete loop problem).
In the earlier days, I'd get a problem where SD channels were badly pixelating but the HD ones would be OK.
More recently, probably since Christmas, it's been freezing, crashing, rebooting more and more. I'm beginning to think it may be overheating. When it freezes, it's "warm" on the top and "really, quite warm" underneath. It's on a glass shelf beneath the TV. Now, I guess that "warm" is to be expected and it's hard to quantify just how warm it gets but it does seem to happen more often when I'm recording and watching at the same time.
It's probably too generic a problem but does this give any clues to anyone? I wondered if it coudl be power supply or similar?
Any suggestions appreciated!
Thanks
Mike
