    Hi,

    I think my box has developed a fault (HDMI signal keeps dropping intermittently) I was wondering how you went about getting an exchange from Humax?

    I actually have one of the BT boxes, so not sure if I need to do it via them. I would rather have a courier come and collect it rather than mess around with BT, especially as they charge £99 if it turns out not to be a fault with the box!

    Thanks

    Welcome to the Forum :-)

    My understanding is that if BT supplied the unit then they are responsible for swapping it out if the need arises.

    Have you tried different HDMI resolution settings?

    What make and model of TV?

    This might not work but you could try uploading the default file listed at bottom of linked page

    http://beta.humaxonline.co.uk/freesat-hd

    Upload as you would for application software.

    As per post #3 there are no plans to transmit this version OTA.

    No I do not work for Humax.

    I have been communicating with them for over 8 years, since the advent of the 8000T.

    Bat phone :-)

    I can communicate directly through various means to those that can and do make a difference.

    The updated loader is not required at this time as it changes nothing of significance to the end user.

    Just the recording fix, as per the release note and upload instructions included with the update.

    All I can state is that Humax Towers are certainly aware that some are having a problem, and they are investigating.

    No plans to OTA this version.

    If you know what you are doing, and are sure your unit is not recording then you can carry out the update from standby, no need to disconnect power to unit.

    Welcome to the Forum :-)

    Those that need to know at Humax Towers are certainly aware of the issue.

    Further info will be released shortly.

    I think those are just default values set in software.

    The file sent would have been a default file – enforces a factory reset on boot.

    Could still be under warranty dependant on when and where you bought it if definitely less then 2 years old.

    Can only comment on HDR T2 at the mo which I am sat next to.

    Pulled out aerial, and whilst it does report ‘The receiver is not receiving a signal’ etc…

    Press media, and I can access and replay recordings.

    Edit: Can check out Foxsat in a few minutes unless someone else reponds.

    Foxsat same just pressed media and can replay recordings.

    Any chance that your dish could have moved, and therefore you are not receiving the freesat home transponder.
