    I have now made a couple of recordings, the 4000 is shown over the network on my Samsung, as is the T2 and other servers. The files are in the recordings folder but they will not play on the Samsung? Wrong format the Samsung says, mpeg??? They are HD recordings does the 4000 stop networked devices playing HD recordings over the network?

    Yes - only SD can be used.

    Thanks Graham, I have now proved this, where do Humax advertise this ball and shackle in their feature of around the network playback! I forgot that my T2 stripped encoding.

    I don't know of any current PVRs that can/are allowed to do what you are seeking - SD only I'm afraid.

    So what problem does your HDR-FOX T2 have that makes you want to replace it?

    The HDR FOX T2 has a DTCP-IP server/client. Two can view each others HD and SD recordings despite any encryption.

    Many of wish the Freetime boxes used the same system

    Any of these will let you do what you want with HD recordings

    However none are to the Freeview Play standard.
