Not sure if the following list of faults will help myself (and others) to diagnose their problems but here goes;
(1) All recordings gone and message tells me that I have only used less than 1% space.
(2) Pause and Record functions gone.
(3) In Settings/Storage I am invited to connect a HDD.
(4) If I try to copy a file from a USB memory stick I am told that there is not enough room.
(5) On Demand services work OK.
Were it not for (2) and (4) I would assume HDD is U/S. (I have powered up and down, left it unplugged all night and done all the things folk have suggested in other postings.)
If it were to be the case of a failed HDD would it make sense to ask local PC repair shop to put in new disk?
If not a cost effective route, has anybody a suggestion for replacement for the Humax device from alternative maker?
Sorry but my faith in Humax is not great having Googled my problem and having seen the number of folks with same issues.
Seems Humax are not too responsive !
