yawn .. i’m still on v12 from 2008. it’s been on standby too.
i’ve done manual and auto updates .. i get ‘no new software not found’ or whatever the message is ..
Hughie
so i didn’t miss the software transmission .. what happened ?
hughie
.. so, just discovered that my sysid is 0000.0000 and it should be 3023.0000.
i gather there is a utility to solve this from Humax. anyone know? thx hughie
The only way of fixing the sys id corruption is an upload from PC, if you have the necessary cables, (I can provide the file required) or swap out with Humax.

I have installed a lot of Humax box’s for friends/family etc. Some are new retail units and some are the A Grade ones direct from Humax.
Welcome to our Forum
Re your problem of boxes not updating – tis a strange one. The only reasons I have come across before are not transmitted from certain transmitters, but this is not common, and of course as has been mentioned a few times throughout the thread the system id becoming corrupted.

While we’re on the subject of software Barry, any whispers on v26 for the 9200 or should we just forget about it?
I would not forget about V? yet 😉

many thanks for all your help. Now back up and working.
Great – if only they would give it the functionality of the original Tivo !! Mine still works alongside the Humax and is better for some things.
Still, at least it is all back up and running, thanks to you
Good news
Glad we managed to be of help.
Recordings should not stop because of a news flash, unless the broadcaster changes the running status. A bit puzzling this one.
Do you get the pop up I mention earlier on split programmes now, for example Channel Five tomorrow @ 9PM, the film Speed – you should also note the different colour background to the programme name.
I believe John has now managed to successfully achieve OTA update, so his sys id should be OK.
If auto update is enabled, then I am at a loss as to why he got stuck on earlier version…unless any error messages on the front display were ignored, which I think is unlikely.
My V19 test unit is still OK as well, so I think we can assume whatever caused it has been tweaked or undone.

This is by no means definitive so be wary of repeating this on other places for the time being.
Has the problem mysteriously gone away?
Had a 9300 on V19 for the last hour, and it has not locked up.
Post #125 suggests the same, maybe the DTT changes you mentioned in post #15 have been unchanged.
Almost exactly 24 Hours from whence the problems started, strange that.
Humax Towers are testing an even earlier version, and they are reporting same to me.
Hi bonnie did not get chance to welcome you to the Forum with your first post, so welcome
Depending on what software version you had originally, you might not have had the facility you have now.
Programmes interupted by a news programme are called split programmes.
When you highlight such a programme in the EPG, and press OK you should get a pop up:
‘You have selected a split event programme. The whole programme will be reserved’
Once you press OK you should see both parts have timer icon in the EPG.
The first part of the programme should record, the unit will stop recording for the duration of the news broadcast, and recommence recording when the second part of the programme starts.
It will appear in your recordings list as 2 entries.

I have tried updating via null modem cable and flash9200 I get it starting and then reporting “waiting for 2” and an error code on the screen of E-UT
My system ID shows as 4847.5a7d
Update date jan 13 2010
software version 1.00.19
Now what have I done wrong??
Your sys id is corrupt, and you will have to upload/fix that first.
If you send me a private message with an email address I can send the file you need or I can send it to the email addy you registered with, your call.

OK I know the thread is getting rather long, and some are not reading the whole, so I’ll repeat a couple of things here:
OTA Dates see:

How to update:

You can download this pdf via the link I gave in post #12 page 2 of this thread.
That is quite old Liz, you do not even have the recording facility as yet.
I’ll try and find out when the next OTA is scheduled.
Welcome to the forum Daniel
Have a read of this thread:
Welcome to the Forum fredoyster
Do you get any error messages on the front display?
Can you post the system id as listed in Menu, System, Status.
V26 software can be downloaded from Humax support site:

Probably the easiest guide to updating via PC is to have a read of this:
