Someone in this newsgroup has suggested that Humax forgot to book a slot
on the Engineering Channel for the upgrades.

Irrelevant, I know, but you can download them if you want.

anything allowing the download. Do you know how I get it?
TIA

Do you reckon this is suitable for the HDR-FOX T2 as well? Strangely,
the HDR isn't listed on Humax's Download Centre dropdown boxes.

That's great - thanks Ian.

These betas definitely seem to be ahead of the "official" versions
which were due to be broadcast this week. I'm happy to run beta
software, so will give then a try.

Thanks again,

STeveT

So far my experience with the HD Fox-T2 single tuner PVR download hasn't
been to happy, some of the problems I've encountered so far have been.. it
intermittently informs me that the USB2 device has been removed (the only
way to restore it's is by switching the receiver off and on again) not very
good in the middle of recording a programme.. occasional complete lockup,
necessitating unplugging from the mains.. no visual indication whatsoever on
the receiver that it's actually in record mode.. pressing the V-format
button 'always' results in a lockup, which again can only be cured by
disconnecting the power, also even the SD .ts recordings are not recognized
on any other device or PC player, which IMV makes the use of a small
portable HDD drive pretty pointless really (my £50.00 Grundig 3 USB recorder
is much better in this respect) perhaps you could let me know how you get
on, I'd be interested to hear.

thanks Peter. Downloaded and followed instructions but nothing happens. What
would the 'root directory' be. I just copied the file to a USB stick after
altering the name?
TIA
