Thanks for that.
Disappointing that it won't help save my old recordings, so it was cheaper and easier to get an exchange unit. But since it will no longer boot up even w/o the disc drive connected Humax wanted £80 not £55 for this.
Replacement arrived this morning, it was a ? new 1100S without any power supply unit, instructions or HDMI cable. Remote control didn't work, batteries were completely flat (0.5V per cell).
Instruction label saying to unpack new unit and put old one in the box for return is not consistent with their previous email instructions to package the old unit up in advance for shipping separately which had taken me 20 mins to do.
Delivery turned up on time but driver (Daniel) did not understand this procedure and was rude and unhelpful when I asked him to wait while I unpacked the replacement unit. The van drivers around here are all Eastern European and normally very well spoken and polite, looks like DPD employ the one exception.
All in all not a very pleasant experience and a pity Topfield don't provide them with more competition (my PVR5800 still going strong)!
