No mention of Freeview, which has been where the problem lies for me - I
was able to record from BBC4 HD OK on Freesat.


I recorded both episodes of 'The Bridge' on BBC Four HD without
difficulty (Freeview).

Having just checked my Humax, it has no BBC4 HD channel, 106, tuned in.
Maybe I need a retune, but I don't worry about the HD channels, so it
won't worry me if it doesn't find it. Is this the referenced 'problem'?


I think you do need to rescan as it is a new multiplex rather than a
change within the existing multiplexes.

I'm a big fan of HD but I know opinions vary on the subject!

You have to do a rescan to get it (obviously it won't appear on the
older non-HD boxes). The problem is that although once scanned the
channel appears, timer recordings from it are liable to fail. This is a
bug which apparently Humax know about so hopefully a fix will be
forthcoming eventually.

I don't think BBC4HD is available on Freeview, is it?

BBC$ HD is only available on 1 or 2 transmitters at this stage so
chances are you will not be able to receive it yet.

I have had two failures on Freeview BBC3 HD, Wall-e and an episode of
Atlantis.

I annoyingly deleted them as I though it was just one-of-those-things
but now wish I hadn't as the fine people on the hummy forums has figured
out a work around to view the recordings.

It is, but only from certain transmitters so far - see list in the
previous post to yours.

It's buried somewhere in this thread :
http://hummy.tv/forum/threads/failed...-channel.4309/
But I think you need to have the customised software installed.
It involves copying off the .ts file and/or removing the .nts file
