    Hi
    To be honest I've never looked, once I've watched something I normally
    erase it.

    Only talking about playing back the first 2 or 3 seconds. If the broken icons don't bother you you can generally safely ignore them. If they are truly broken at least you will know they are and possibly watch using catch up.

    Hi again.
    I’ve done a ‘Factory Reset’ and the guide is now functioning as it should. The ‘On Demand’ button is working as well.
    Problem now is, do I do updates when they become available, or just live with what I’ve got?
    Thanks to those who assisted me.

    I ignore the broken recording too, it worried me to start with but everything I have asked the box to record, has done.

    The guys are right in that when watched the thumbnail will update.

    Currently have two such programmes in the list and one with no channel name or logo (other problem) the rest with truncated channel name.

    Also never had a problem with EPG populating but then often it has recorded something before I’ve switched it on.

    You won't have any choice. When a new update is transmitted OTA, your box will update all by itself. Not everyone has a box connected to the internet.

    Is this 1.03.37, which my machine doesn't like?

    The problem was that after installing this update, my machine lost the 'On Demand' and backward EPG. Had to do a factory reset, so I won't be installing again!

    OK - so I downloaded the update file, re-named it as fvp-4000t_upgrade, burned it to a usb stick and tried to update my FVP4000T. The new firmware was recognized and the device updated successfully (screengrab attached). So the 5000T is just a 4000T ?

    Well done. Have to say I was thinking of doing exactly the same thing now that Humax no longer seem to support the 4000T with updates.
    What improvments does the update give on the 4000T ? Any negatives ?
