    Will someone please state whether a fix is being worked on to restore pause or rewind live tv. It was a major feature of why I purchased the machine in the first place.

    I suspect you will have to format HDD, but will check with Humax Towers.

    As promised in previous post re live pause.

    Humax Towers are looking into the issue, but no promises of a quick fix, if a fix can be engineered.

    If you can live with problem hold fire on formatting for time being.

    Hi,
    I too have been in touch with Humax support over the past few days about the RW & Pause problem. I couldn't even get them to admit there is a problem that they can deal with.

    What with the flashing banner saying 'press ok for more information or to record'. It flashes. Very annoying.

    Since "the happening" (the software update) I see a horrible faded-alpha-opacity overlay each time I perform a command (channel change, pause, menu exit) that obscures half of the screen.

    I don't want it. Can I get rid of it? I looked in the settings and don't see it.

    Why would Humax do something like this without letting you control whether it happens or not, or for how long.

    Hint to Humax: If you're in doubt about how something should work, don't make a decision and hard-code it. Instead, make a decision and default it, but let advanced users willing to dig around change it. Oh, and maintain all these choices between software updates of course.

    Do you need a new Software Manager? That was a rhetorical question, you couldn't afford me

    Admin Edit: This thread and replies (2) moved to open topic on software update.

    I TOTALLY agree with you. PLease see my resent posts. Hopefully someone at Humax will take note. I have also complained to Freesat who make "decisions" regarding software spec. I am finding the darkened screen extremly frustrating & the only way to overdie is to KEEP pressing BACK once, why does not solve the problem totally & if you press back too long or twice it stops the playback of a recording. Roll on the next update fix. Should HOPEFULLY be along very shortly . . . I also agree on having options in menu + also being able to download previous versions of software.

    Nothing to do with Humax, they're just doing as they are told. If you have issue with it then you'll need to take it up with Freesat.

    Got an issue in Non Freesat Mode on my Humax HDR-1000S only occurred since the software update the other week.

    Changed to Non Freesat Mode was coming up with weak or no signal on STV & ITV HD frequency 10936 V 23000 2/3. So I went to search for this frequency again in user defined. It wouldn't let me enter the symbol rate so I selected save now I just get a blank screen when user defined is selected.
