IPlayer problemWell, whatever it is called, the Channel 4 catchup service was still working OK on the FVP5000T yesterday (I don't know about now, as I have not tried it today).
Presumably iPlayer still does not work. I note with interest that Humax are acknowledging that the problem affects all of their boxes, whereas the BBC are still only saying "some".

I was confused by the inconsistency of naming across similar apps. All4 is the app. My4 is one of the facilities it offers. My5 is an app. It offers live TV, and catch-up. Doh! My brain hurts. When do the pubs open? 
I'm starting to think that Humax haven't been paying their rent.
"When do the pubs open?".
Not a good idea, I imagine social distancing from all the other frustrated Humax owners would be impossible.

They mention "iPlayer on all Humax devices" but does "free to air customers" include Freesat because they don't mention Freesat by name?
They also mention YouTube as no longer supported on some boxes but it should work on the HDR-1100S (Freesat) box but it doesn't.
Still no iPlayer or YouTube on my HDR-1100S.

Ditto with my FVP 5000T last night.
Yey! iPlayer working again as of 5 mins ago.
Yes, indeed! Working on my FVP5000T. Excellent, but very slow response from Humax to sort it.
Still not on YouTube though.
Edit: Not used it before, but tried BBC Sounds and that is working too. Tried BBC3 live as well as a recording and both played OK.

Not tested sounds on either box (I always use my phone or tablet and headphones).
