Re the problem of getting accessing recording. I got on to the Humax helpline and the ham said to give it time to download but often I turn on the machine just to watch TV and then it has plenty of time to download. He also said to go through
settings
system
data storage
and reformat.
But that is what I had to do with my old one so I am now proper fed up.
I asked what to do if the reformatting does not work and he said the box would need replacing. Can Currys argue with that?
Well, mine has gone back to exactly the same as it was last December.
I always turn it totally OFF at the end of the day, first by remote control, then mains plug in wall.
Totally fed up with this now, cannot rely on it.
Even have to use cable from unit to router to do any upgrades instead of upgrades coming auto "over the air".
The ordinary joe public does not want to, nor should they have to, do all of these techy things - power down, restart, try this, try that. Just want a recorder that works.
I know its the Humax site but can anyone recommend a recorder that is bug free and reliable please
Yep and its hapenning to me now.
I probably have a refurb unit as I see a hint of feet marks on the top panel. The front is mint though
Ive only had it a week and three times it has nor allowed me access to the hard drive. The remote registers a no entry type icon on the screen...so pause, media and other hard drive functions dont work
Turning the unit back into standby and on again resolves the problem but it shouldnt be hapenning at all.
This unit is not looking like a good buy. What will it be next and I would bet that this has been returned by a previous and brief owner.
I hold on it for now as the picture is good, its recorded programmes very well and Im not sure what else I would buy
