Hi there. I've been having some difficulties with my freeview and I keep running into brick walls.
Basically, I got a delete loop issue, but it wasn't deleting anything. It wasn't deleting any recordings or anything, it just had a 'delete' caption in the top right-hand corner. It started when I tried to delete a program, which led me to believe it was a corrupt file. The program itself won't play and it has its TS extension visible. On top of all this, I also can't record anything.
So I downgraded the freeview software to 1.01.09, and the problem went away. But it came back when I tried to delete that file. Also, whilst with 1.01.09, I couldn't get anything to record, and the sound didn't work on HD recordings. I re-upgraded the software, and ended up back where I started. No record, no delete. However, it will delete other programs.
I'm fully aware that a format of the hard-drive may well fix everything, but there is no way I'm losing my recordings. Not to mention the fact that you can't get the recordings off onto an external hard-drive because that has never worked and would take many, many days.
I hooked it all up to the internet and ran this custom firmware that I'd only just heard about. I'm not tech savvy and I know nothing about all of this. I'm literally clueless, but I thought I did everything okay. I put the correct firmware on my USB stick and up popped the screen that said it was installing. But everything was the same. I then discover I need to get this web interface thingamajig, whatever the heck that is. I open the browser, put in the IP address, and... does not work. I get this message:
Collected errors:
* make_directory: Cannot create directory `/mod/var/opkg/info': Read-only file system.
* opkg_download: Failed to download [file], wget returned 1.
* rm_r: Failed to open dir : No such file or directory.
Error retrieving package list from the Internet. Please check your connection and try again.
I tried it on several computers and devices and on several different browsers, and the internet seems to be working fine. I'm genuinely lost. I don't know anything about any of this stuff and I just don't know what to do. I don't know where the problem lies or what I'm doing wrong. I just keep running into walls. My current line of thinking is to get an alternative to this browser interface web thing, but I have no idea if I'm on to something with that.
Can anyone help? I'm well out of my depth.
