I have an 1100S. It is 1 year old. Recently, when I key in a channel number on the remote, the TV display shows the number with the last digit missing. Example: if I key in 101, the TV display shows 10, if I key in 163, it comes up as 16. The box does go to the correct channel, however, but I would, nevertheless, like to know where that missing digit has got to? Is there a fix?

Same for everyone, it is not a problem with your unit, affects all versions of HDR 1***S

"Is there a fix ?"
I've never really seen this as something that needs fixing, as Graham says it's faster. Why delay the channel change so users can see what keypad digit they just pressed.
I suppose they could of added a conformation pop up, you have selected channel 101 press Yes to change No to cancel. I'm sure that would of been really popular

I'm guessing they just go off into the aether.

Panasonic have a much better idea, the channel changes immediately on the 3rd digit thereby eliminating any delay but the channel number stays on screen for a second or two. Best of both worlds.

Hardly much better, after all, if you press the wrong number there is nothing you can do about it till the box changes channel.
My comment re the OK is based on previous Humax boxes that have custom firmware and also those that do not used with programmeable remote controls. Basically if you programme a macro with the channel number plus a OK the channel change (also works in the epg to rapidly change the epg focus) works much faster than simply entering the numbers.
