    my tv is a samsung tv ue40es5500 which has sound problems since the
    software update, which the box did it self with no help from me.
    Also menus on the humax box appear to be slow sometimes,
    the sound problem is cleared by changing the power setting menu
    so no aerial feed through in standby

    I tried turning the 'low power standby' off and on. I've found that, after turning the TV off and on, I always lose sound. But then with 'low power standby' ON, I can recover the sound by putting the humax to standby and back, while with 'low power standby' OFF, the humax will only recover sound if it's unplugged and back on.
    Both effects are reproducible.
    Either way any recording would still be messed up. It seems to show a definite connection between the loop through mod and the sound problem.
    Humax customer support have suggested an exchange - are they thinking the hardware has variations? I am inclined to return to retail, as an exchange might complicate my refund rights.
    ................
    my TV is a Sony KDL-32V4000
    (I have checked that the TV's "Control for HDMI" is OFF)

    Hi All - I've been a fan of Humax for years - first the 9200T, then the HDR-FOX T2 but the latter sadly was destroyed by a recent lightning strike at my house ! I have just received an HDR-2000T as replacement, and was looking for the Custom Firmware to put on it. Reading all these posts, and realising that there is no Custom Firmware as yet for this model, should I return it post haste and get one of the FOX T2's Humax still have left ? Remote access and FTP'ing files off to disk for watching in Greece when there, are very important, and I don't think I want all the other problems people seem to have been having !

    Yes. It would be a 'no-brainer' for me.

    Thanks Wallace - I've instigated a return for full refund, and ordered a FOX T2 - found a 1tb one at EBW Ltd, Nottingham. Can't wait to get my Web IF back !

    Re the sound issue:

    Try turning ARC (Audio Return Channel) off on your tv and see if it persists.

    I had a lengthy discussion via email with the Humax Tech Support people who said they'd look into it but I CBA to find out if it's been fixed as the set up I have now works fine.

    No Martin, just lucky perhaps... however I am trying to find if unit checks for software every few hours besides OTA time.
    I have one unit on old software, and no sign of update on that as yet.
    IP was enabled at 8am.

    2000T/1TB. Failed with 3 separate newly formatted USB pens - never recognised download

    tried overnight LAN connect on standby, no success,
    tried after midnight next night with power on, immediately requested upgrade - ip upgrade successful
