I found this morning that one of my two boxes had crashed overnight and rebooted into the installation menu. The other box did the same on January 29. It may be a complete coincidence, but these crashes coincided with the last two versions of Tunefix-Update. In both cases, the custom software made a recovery from the crashes relatively painless.
I'd be happy to provide any other information that could confirm or eliminate the connection.

Yes, I did have to retune in both cases.

Also noticed Freeview LCN:100 has gone. This is not mentioned on Freeview.co.uk
It was my startup channel, now using BBC RB LCN:250.

Ah, I had to rationalise the maintenance of the "data" channels (which don't do anything useful on these units and can cause a crash) to cope with this week's changes and that's an unfortunate victim. 555 will have gone as well, not that that's any use either. I guess I could special case those two if you want?

No problem, I'll use LCN:250, It was that LCN:100 was blank so no screen wear if left on it.
I don't know LCN:555, its not on my LG TV which I'll use sometimes to check for changes as I can't delete them.
How does LCN:100 cause crashes? Incidently can it cause EPG problems?

It doesn't, but some of the ones in the 200+ series have been known to.
Some of the ones in the 200+ series seem to issue enormous amounts of updates. Whether that causes problems I don't know, but they are better off removed, as Humax haven't exactly got a great track record when it comes to EPG stability on their various generations of boxes.

It would be a short term rename. The HDR-FOX T2 will just rename the channel back to what ever name is in the epg stream when you switch to watching a channel. Stopping that happening would be the difficult bit.
