Had a Foxsat for years and decided to go with the new HDR-1100S 1TB. The thing is the old Foxsat had a SCART out to which I have an analog converter connected which puts the signal down coaxial to a second TV in the bedroom. The 1100S doesn't have a SCART is there anyway I can convert one of the other outputs to analog? If not, I think this will have to go back!

Thank you for pointing out the 'Audio Description' feature: I never knew that it existed. Obviously I have not been inquisitive enough to find out the full capability of the Foxsat. I will certainly give this a try out.

Thanks for the additional method of controlling sub titles - I will trry out your suggestions
Thank you both

If your modulator only has a scart socket a cheap adaptor will be needed.

Another question, is there any way I can back up the recorded programmes on my Foxsat and transfer them to my 1100S? Otherwise it seems I'll have to run them side-by-side for a while?

HD recordings are encrypted so you can only view them using the Foxsat.

HDR 1100s installed and feed through coaxial to bedroom works a treat (thanks Graham).
Only problem I have is that the 1100s remote doesn't work with my Marmitek XL infrared extender (works perfectly with the old Foxsat remote). Have HUMAX changed the remote signal type or something?
Just one other thing - a piece of feedback to HUMAX: the OK and arrow buttons on the remote are so noisy! Whoever was it at HUMAX who thought this irritating clacking noise was a good idea?

I thought the remote was a bit odd at first. However, once I got used to it I think it's a really good remote especially the positive 'click' it doesn't irk me at all. This has received acclaim from many quarters.

Whoever was it at HUMAX who thought this irritating clacking noise was a good idea?Pretty sure nothing has changed. All the Humax remotes will work with any of the kit. They can change modes so you can use more than one box in the same room. I would expect the original Foxsat-HDR remote to work the 1100S if both are set to the same mode.

You haven't set the remote to control the TV rather than the box have you ?

Both remotes are set to setting 1 and set to control box, not TV.
Odd eh?| Fri 31 Jul 2015 14:44:16 #160 |
