    I should say first of all that I haven't been on the forum for a few days and so was unaware this had rolled out.

    Turned on the box this morning and got the Humax splash screen with blue light, then the screen went dark and after 30 seconds the red light came on.

    Pressed the power button on the Humax remote and the blue light came on. A few seconds later BBC 2 came on the screen.

    Pressed 101 and the red light came on, but box still on and showing BBC2!. Waited a bit and pressed the power key, blue light comes on and a 'Home Screen Renewal' overlay appears.

    Great, I thought the new software has rolled out overnight. Press the Home key, nothing happens. Press the Guide button, nothing happens.

    Puzzled I press the power key and the box turns off. Left it for a while and turned back on. All seems okay apart from one huge issue. I now have no recordings! The recordings screen shows the drive is roughly 75% full but no recordings are shown on the right.

    I'm turning it off at the mains and hoping they magically return.

    Yeasterday there was a message on the screen about new access to settings I thought, unfortunately did not write down what it said. Accidentally pressed ok and now I can only access on demand, tv guide, recordings and media but no access to settings. What can I do?

    Settings is now accessed via the icon in the top right hand corner of the home screen.

    Hi,

    I was considering buying a FVP 4000t but was put off by the reports of poor software.

    How much better has this firmware update made the operating system?

    Are 'you' expecting further updates that tackle the other problem area's? such as blank thumbnails, no list view available for recorded programs etc etc.

    Thanks in advance

    I was more than happy with the original software but the new update has improved things further & no doubt there will be more to follow.

    Many of the things people moaned about in reviews in my opinion were just because they were different than what they were used to. Once you get used to the EPG etc it`s a great bit of kit IMO

    I`m looking forward to the immanent Netfix addition. By the way can anyone confirm if Discovery Channel & Nat Geographic Channel programmes such as Wheeler Dealers & Car SOS are on there?

    Search does not find either programme I'm afraid.
