The next generation of Humax Freesat set-top boxes, scheduled for launch next February, will be able to access the BBC iPlayer and ITV Player services from the outset, meaning that viewers will no longer be tethered to their PC screens when catching up with EastEnders and the like. This ability has long been predicted for the Freesat platform, which has since launch incorporated the necessary...

Would the Humax need to re encode the files to record in .mpeg format rather than .ts format? I'm not keen on the .ts format as it doesn't play well in VLC player unlike .mpeg formats. Is it a software or hardware issue?

Hi guys....good news the Humax sees my memory stick....bad news..... the on-screen message is that it's not formatted correctly and that it should be ext3 or FAT 16/32 Now, I have reformatted it on my pc and have tried all formatting options offered including FAT 32 and re-loaded some mp3 tracks and the same non-recognition message appears. The help line hasn't ...

Me again My Humax isn't 'seeing' my Creative Zen MP3 player when I connect it to the USB port. Having waited ages to get onto the helpline I was asked if it was FAT 32 (I think it is as my PC etc is) and told they would send me some extra necessary steps to follow via e-mail. The e-mail hasn't arrived and given my recent experience of their help, I'm not ...

The Humax helpline couldn't offer any explanantions and weren't at all helpful. Thanks and happy viewing over ...

I'm not coming to compare a pay TV service to a free one, but thought a look at the equipment might be of interest to some: Humax has full access to the whole 320gig hard disk - none of this Sky Anytime loading programs you don't or can't watch because you don't have the right Sky package. I wish Sky would allow you to switch off anytime and access the extra space, I ...

Hi, I'm having extremely strange pixelisation/low signal strength and quality issues on my Humax 9150T. I'm on the Sandy Heath transmitter and the problems seem to be limited to Cbeebies on channel 71 (much to the chagrin of my daughter), all other channels appearing to be fine. Following my problems as shown on the software update thread I've checked the ariel ...

Hi folks, just moved into a new property and found that they had no aerial but they did have a Sky dish so I bought a Humax Foxsat HD decoder yesterday but I seem to be having problems with it. For certain channels I get no picture and a message saying "no or bad signal". It's always the same channels (BB1, BBC HD ...

Hi there, i receNTLy got a Humax 9300T PVR. At the moment i am living in an apartment in Dublin with NTL cable, which has it's own decoder box. Is it possible to use the Humax in Dublin? Preferably i'd like to do away with the decoder box, but i have a feeling that this is impossible. Can i use the PVR like a primitive VHS and just record whatever is coming out of the decoder via scart? Any ...

UK - Possible to force a Humax reciever to listen to a non-native transmitter? Hey, I'm looking at getting a Humax Fox HD-T2 because where I live you're not allowed a sat dish, and naturally I want HD goodness. So thanks to the digital switchover, and HD taking over the bandwidth that used to be occupied by analogue, I can finally see HD ...

Last week I bought and installed a Humax FOXSAT-HDR Freesat+ 320GB HD PVR Digital Box. I have installed it and it has automatically downloaded the latest software, and scanned for channels receivable, and seemed to work fine. I have both SCART and HDMI cables connected to my TV (so I can compare the difference in ...

Hi, I have just started to get green screens on the HDR with a HDMI connection to a Hitachi LCD TV. If I switch the box to standby and put it back on again, it works fine. I have been doing some research and the cause of this seems to be a handshake issue with the HDMI interface. Does anyone know whether this is more of a TV problem, or is Humax looking at this actively?...

Apologise for being a complete noob...

Firstly, my apologies in advance, as I'm sure all of my questions below have been covered elsewhere ...... Anyway, my mother-in-law (MIL), who already has a Humax Freeview box has decided that she wants to get into satellite, and the 'nice man in Currys' told her that a Humax Foxsat HDR was the way to go. She likes this idea because she already has a Humax Freeview box. ...

Our Sky contract comes to an end in a couple of days, but I have already installed the Humax Foxsat PVR, just in case there were any problems. However, it was very easy to install; a straight "swapout" with the Sky+ box which took less than 5 minutes, then another 5 minutes or so to run through the configuration wizard on the Humax box. Regulars will also know that we switched from Sky ...
