    My 9300 has been functioning perfectly since christmas but tonight it was trying to record something but was showing as a duplicate of another program already recorded. i tried to delete it and my recordings list is now empty.

    i have done a reset and software reset and still nothing. the 'installation' option in the main menu is also unselectable.

    i am hoping there is a quick fix but fear i may have to connect it to the pc and transfer the recordings across.

    my next worry at this stage is there is no actual guide to doing this, most say 'connect to a pc' but how is this done. some talk of special cables, usb cables, sata cables, or can i just take the disk out and put it in my pc. i already have a sata card with extra external ports.

    i have also heard that the 9300 doesn't transfer back very well!

    please help...

    Turn it off and then on again.

    The quick fix is format the disk from the HDD control menu but this will of course remove all possibility of recovering the existing recordings.

    You can connect it direct to a PC with the correct SATA port.

    There is a reported (but unverified) problem with putting recordings back on the 9300 but the author of humaxrw is prepared to work with a 9300 owner to try and fix any problem.

    cheers for the help.

    the readme that comes with the humaxrw as well as http://myhumax.org/forum/topic/help-running-humaxrw-on-9300t-please gave me most of the info i needed and it's all done.

    the only problem is that all the files are called recovered 001, 002, etc. i used the ts2hrw to create the 'hre' files and used the 'humaxrw 1: -p *.ts' command to copy back the ts elu & epg files but it didn't copy the hre files. the '-g' or '-p' commands wouldn't do anything.

    any ideas?
