Hidden Service Menu

Black Hole

May contain traces of nut
For information, since I can find no reference already covered on this forum, there is a hidden service menu which (amongst other things) provides a proper eject operation for USB drives, and enables the CRID codes to be displayed on the i-panel for programmes in the EPG and recordings.

First, bring up the System Information menu page:

Menu.. Settings.. System.. System Information​

Access to the hidden menu is by an undocumented service code. In sequence, on the handset press Red, Green, Yellow, Blue, Green, Yellow, Blue (ignore the "no entry" icon that appears on the screen).

You should now have a menu with an option to allow Display CRID to be enabled.

External reference here (click).
 
In addition to the list in External Reference there is also a 'Get Network Time' option and a 'Reset Cookie & DRM Data' the latter can help with portal lockup problems and reset the sky option, If it ever arrives ! !

Before updating my father-in-law's machine to the latest (official) software, I had a peek at the hidden menu, and it included the option for a reformat instead of the Reset Cookie & DRM Data option.
