    I'll join the queue of frustrated Humax users (4000t for me) with Freeview Play. iPlayer takes three minutes to load, ITV more, All4 even more and My5 not at all.
    Humax talks of a 'known problem' without a timescale for fixing it.
    I have complained more formally and suggested that their product has become unfit for purpose within the terms of the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and that unless a solution is found within 'a reasonable time' I shall demand a full refund.
    Worth a punt - might just spur them into activity.

    Unless you bought it from Humax direct. You only have a claim against the retailer who sold you the box.

    This appears to have been fixed by a software update to the Humax box in June. I think it was mentioned in smoother thread but not this one.

    What sofware version do you have on your box. There was a fix rolled out a while ago for this issue. ?

    Bear in mind that the question was asked some time before the fix came out so, although fairfieldfive has not got back, the problem may have gone away for them.

    Our humax shuts down and restarts as soon as it has shown the adverts so we never get to watch programmes just the adverts, very frustrating and annoying.
