Hello,
I have had to buy a new Humax FVP 5000T box, I have removed the hard drive and installed my previous hard drive that has all my recordings on, the issue is that the new FVP 5000T does not play the recordings that are all ready recorded on the hard drive.
Is there a way to fix this ?
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks
Each FVP-5000T encrypts its own recordings using a unique key. Your new FVP-5000T does not know the unique key of your older box and therefore cannot play them.
Hi Luke,
Thanks for getting back to me,
Is there a way to copy the key from the old box to the new box ?
Thanks

What went wrong with the old box? I think you have more chance of getting that to work so that SD recordings can be decrypted than the possibility of finding a way to decrypt the recordings.
the remote control did not work with the box, humax tried everything to get the remote conrtol to work with the box but no good.
Does the new remote that came with the new box not operate the old box.
Did you ever change the remote mode on the old box. I seem to remember that you may have done this
from other questions you have asked.
When you say that Humax have tried everything what is everything, and did you send it back to Humax
or were you following instructions given by e-mail?
Hello,
the issue with the old box is fixed, took the old box to a freeview shop that repairs freeview boxes, I gave them the remote control that came with the new box and it worked.
Thanks
A Freeview shop that repairs Freeview boxes, that's very specific, never heard of such a place.
What exactly did they fix, did they tell you what was wrong with the old box or was it the old boxes remote control.
Are you down to one working remote control and two 5000T boxes.
It was the old remote control that had gone, the new remote control now works both boxes.
