I am getting tired of using iplayer and Youtube only for the machine to flip into re-boot mode without any reason or warning. This has happened a lot of late and I have no idea why except it is extremely frustrating.

I have seen the same problem with the HDR-FOX T2. The fact that it is happening on the HDR-1800T and 2000T too is interesting. There is no fix I am aware of, but I do recommend contacting Humax Customer Support. They will probably give you the run around and tell you to do a factory reset which will probably not help, but only it is only likely to be fixed if enough people contact them and report the problem.

Well I am getting very frustrated with this machine. Random filp outs from iplayer causing any recordings to stop and machine to power off and on again. Infuriating !!!!!!!

I think there is a bug in their portal software. There are a lot of reports of problems with the HDR-FOX crashing with iPlayer, but it is not consistent: sometimes it works OK. I have not heard of as many HDR-2000T users with the same problem, but clearly there are some. Have you contacted Humax? I think that only they can fix it. If you get no joy with them you could return it as faulty; is the unit still under warranty?

There are quite a few reports on Hummy.TV of iPlayer crashes, but it not everyone has the problem.

iplayer works with no issues on both my HDR FOX T2 boxes.I don't use iplayer a great deal but last time I did, it crashed our HDR-FOX T2.
I tend to use iplayer quite a bit on the HDR FOX T2 because the CF allows the stream to be recorded. Handy when you lose an episode midway through before getting round to watching previous ones. Not had any failures. When I get a few minutes I will try a iplayer HD programme.
