yawn .. i'm still on v12 from 2008. it's been on standby too.
i've done manual and auto updates .. i get 'no new software not found' or whatever the message is ..
Hughie
so i didn't miss the software transmission .. what happened ?
hughie
.. so, just discovered that my sysid is 0000.0000 and it should be 3023.0000.
i gather there is a utility to solve this from Humax. anyone know? thx hughie
The only way of fixing the sys id corruption is an upload from PC, if you have the necessary cables, (I can provide the file required) or swap out with Humax.
My Humax 9300T, bought over 3 years ago, also has this problem. The last update my system managed to accept was ver. 1.00.12 back in October 2008 (the update to stop the fan from running all the time) and ever since then my system ID has been corrupt, showing the value of 0000.0000. This seems to be the cause of blocking any further OTA updates and PC updates. My system is currently being very unpredictable. Humax support won't respond to my emails, merely sending out a 'Form Enail' reply outlining the standard update procedure.
From reading various posts on the forums it seems that I have 3 choices:
1. Scrap this piece of junk and get something reliable (Don't want to do this as I do like the Humax really when it works!)
2. Return to Humax for 're-programming' which I refuse to do unless its for free as it was a Humax update that has compromised my system, or
3. Spend even more of my time sorting this out.
Realisticaly Option 3 is the way I'll go for now so can anyone on this foruim tell me how to reset the system ID so I can re-program via PC to get my system software up to date once and for all? Presumably at that point it will keep itself up to date again OTA for future upgrades.
Any help will be much appreciated.
My direct contact with Humax themselves over this issue could not have been less helpful in resolving this.
