I'm posting on behalf of my elderly mum.
She had a fox t2 which was fantastic, for about a decade then it went wrong.
We bought her a 5000t to replace as it seemed to be the new equivalent humax box.
Omg this thing is a pain, 2 main issues
1) very frequently it just stops responding to record commands, you cannot press record or schedule any recordings. Powering off at the wall and back on again fixes this but mum is disabled and this is a, pita, and it happens too much, twice yesterday!
2) no way to create folders and organise recordings. For mum this is a show stopper, she now has loads of recordings and it takes about 5 minutes to scroll down the list to the films at the bottom. I can't believe they've removed such basic functionality that a decade old box had!
Are either of these fixable?
If not is there a freeview recorder that doesn't suffer from these issues?
