    Hi thanks guysI've managed to get the drive recognised see a listing of recordings.

    I now need to transfer these to a file on my PC.

    Is there no way of knowing the size of file the list will create, it doesn't specify in the list.

    What happens there's not enough space on my D: drive

    In order to copy to my PC I need to use the get command do I use an * in the command to get all files or is that only applicable to the put command. My list shows Item 1: ***Buffer*** Item 20 ***Unknown*** Item 21 ***Buffer*** when I do the get command to copy to my D: drive do I omit these.

    Which of these is the correct syntax

    humaxrw 1: -r -g 1-33
    OR humaxrw 1: -r -g *.ts
    OR humaxrw 1: -r -g 2-19, 22-33

    For the benefit of anyone reading this thread in the future, can you say what you did to get the drive recognised?

    I would expect the transfer will stop.

    I would use the the last option you have shown. The timeshift buffers are unlikely to hold anything of interest,

    1) I have copied all files except the two Buffer files and a file named unknown to a separate partition which I labelled D:\Humaxrec.

    2) I then ran ts2hrw and it created all the associated hre files. I presume all the files are supposed to be in the same directory ie. elu epg hre ts all together.

    3) I then formatted the disc in the Humax.

    4) I have now come to "Put" the ts files back on the formatted disc, but I am getting the following messages:

    5) I first set my current folder to c:\humaxdir where I had saved the Humaxrw.exe, at the c:\humaxrwdir prompt, I input the following statement humaxrw :1 -p *.ts to which I recieved the following message "Record list is empty" WARNING this may corrupt your Humax hard disk - do you wish to continue ?[no]: to which I replied "no"

    6) I then changed to the directory where the recovered files were saved. D:\Humaxrec and at the D:\Humaxrec prompt, I input the following statement c:\humaxrwdir\humaxrw 1: -p *.ts and got the same message.

    7) I have copied the humaxrw.exe to the same folder the recovered files are in (D:\humaxrec) and input humaxrw -p *.ts from there and got the same message.

    I presume I don't need to use the -r syntax to put the files back.

    I would have answered yes. Given that the drive is newly formatted you have very little to lose. You could try making a single recording on the Humax after formatting so that the list isn't empty but I would expet the restore to work either way.
