    Welcome to the Forum

    If your unit is in standby the next time the OTA is broadcast then it should update, or of course you can download the latest from Humax website and update via usb.

    OTA dates are listed here, but none currently scheduled:

    Latest Software for usb update can be downloaded from here:

    or here:

    Just to add for the OTA to work the OP must have access to the HD mux. If not then usb update is needed.

    You must be in a region that is currently receiving High Definition (HD) broadcasts; i.e. Post Digitial Switch Over (DSO).

    I have used both powered and unpowered successfully.

    Western Digital Passport, and Seagate Freeagent, without power supplies.

    Currently testing a Western Digital Elements 2TB powered drive.

    Did have a Seagate Freeagent GoFlex powered 1TB connected for a while, that one tended to be noisy at times.
