Playback between machines

Just thought I'd add that I'm really keen to get this feature too. I purchased an HDR-FOX T2 and HD-FOX-T2 with exactly the same
idea as the original poster of using one in the bedroom to access recordings in the lounge. It was promised quite a while ago so am hoping it gets released very soon.

This was metioned elsewhere that it was to be a feature of the equipment that you could stream to other DNLA supported devices i.e HDR to HD. I purchased a HDR for the lounge and HD for the master bedroom just for this one feature alone. I could live without the portal if they would just get this streaming working. My other concern is about streaming HD recordings and all these copyright issues. I'd have thought that streaming HD between the manufacturers own equipment over your own network would be allowed but from what I've read it may not be that simple. Shame, real shame if true.
 
You can add me to the list of people waiting for this ability, and sorry not to see it in the last update.

As soon as they add DNLA (server) support, I'll be buying one, maybe two additional HDRs.
 
Yes, I am hoping that this feature will become available soon, as I have a HD and a HDR box, and would like to watch HD recordings on either box.
 
reply from email sent on friday after update when media sharing will be enabled
please see below!

This update was just for TV portal services, not regarding setting up of other units and file sharing etc.
 
Email to humax last night


not sure quite what is going on here, the email you sent me the other day said - :

This update was just for TV portal services, not regarding setting up of other units and file sharing etc.

on looking at the list below five of them are portal related, 19 of them are not, many of them are file sharing options, i am not used to being fobbed off, can you please forward this on to one of your directors as i do not think this is acceptable customer service.

This issue could be due to you not being informed of any update s in which case my apologies for being so abrupt, i myself have worked in a customer service role and would never treat my customers in this way as they are the bread and butter for your business.

please get back to me regarding the question i asked you regarding the media sharing or pass this email on to a person better informed on this subject.

looking forward to a more comprehensive reply in the near future

Regards

Dave [ a valued customer ]
