    Humax could make use of the larger part of the front display instead while recording in standby and put a larger more readable Faust friendly "REC" on that !

    I trust my 1000s so don't require any display. In fact display/lights when badly implemented (see 2000T) can be mighty confusing and annoying.

    Yes I know you trust your 1000s you said so in another thread, I just thought it would be pretty simple for Humax to give 1000S users a far larger REC while in standby only.

    Amazingly enough you did once say "we just couldn't see them", so you do understand that this isn't just about you, other users actually like a readable recording indication and there is nothing confusing about REC.

    Humax/Freesat have proved pretty resilient when it comes to ignoring customer pleas, so I'm not holding my breath.

    A poster at AVforums has posted expecting a White one delivered tomorrow.

    Repassac has asked the poster to confirm installed software version.

    Hmmm. So if it was a 1000S or a 1010S, it would automatically search for new software and if found would update itself.

    Until very recently, a new release was available for the 1000S/1010S. Soon, we hope, there will be another new release with a fix for the bugs in the June 15 version. Clearly, this will be intended only for the 1000S/1010S.

    Does this imply that the 1100S will not pick up a release destined for the 1000S/1010S?

    More differences in the new box than expected, perhaps?

    The thread title for the June 15th update includes the 1100S. Presumably if anyone had one in service on that date it would have updated. It has already been posted it has the same software. Barry would no doubt know the answer

    I suspect that the changes made to the s/w were specifically designed to accommodate the 1100 and subtle differences in h/w have caused the problems in the 1000/1010. Judging by the delay I further suspect that reconciling the two ranges is proving difficult.

    Some of the errors on the Humax Direct listing have been amended.

    No, the thread title doesn't state what models it's for. The Release Notes state 1000S/1010S.

    Had plenty of the white ones for a week now, not bothered setting one up to test though, the difference apart from form factor, loss of inputs and wifi means there is little point doing so. Looks much nicer though.

    When the software was released, the existence of the 1100 series hadn't been officially acknowledged.
