    I have downloaded humaxrw-1.15-win32.zip and HumaxRW_Front-End.zip and put them in the same folder and using a USB Cable from the front of the Humax 9200 to my PC to try to transfer some old recordings to the PC, but it don`t work! I have tried win 10 64bit win 7 64bit and 32bit and also Win xp SP3 32bit but the HumaxRW_Front-End software never show any files on my Humax, it always show a message something like have you connected the Humax bla, bla, bla, with xp I also get a beep sound when starting the HumaxRW_Front-End software, am I doing something wrong???

    Yes. To use Humaxrw you need to take the lid off the 9200T and connect the hard drive directly to the PC using an IDE to USB converter such as this one on ebay https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/USB-2-0-to-SATA-IDE-Converter-HDD-Cable-For-2-5-3-5-Hard-Drive-CD-DVD-RW-Rom/164367726345? NB you need the external power supply; beware cheaper units that don't include the power supply.

    Is there no way of using the USB to PC Cable and transfer files that way?

    You could try Media eLinker on an XP machine see https://myhumax.org/forum/topic/media-elinker-0414 Pretty slow as I remember it and best to set the Humax to a channel that isn't broadcasting anything whilst doing the download.

    Try http://www.enigma.eclipse.co.uk/humax/HumaxMediaController.htm

    These are the notes. The file contains a link to the software itself.

    Media eLinker is very unreliable. You would be better attempting to use Bmax's 3rd party suggestion of Media Controller.
    You may find you need to use your Windows XP machine due to driver issues

    Compared to humaxrw using the 9200T's USB is very slow. The USB port only operates at USB 1.1 speed, and to obtain even that speed during download, you will need to either unplug the aerial, or switch to a low rate channel.

    Any of the options people have suggested would work. MediaController is probably the best option. The link in Luke's post is broken. I have a copy of a slightly older version of MediaController; send me a Private Message with your email address and I will send it to you.
