Hello,
Have the following issue with the guide on the box, sometimes not all the information what’s on does not load up on the guide some of the channels on the guide only show no information available,
Have done a full retune of the box but still have the issue.
Is there a way to fix the issue.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks

Have done a full retune of the box but still have the issue.
When you did a full retune, did you leave the “Smart tune” option on? If so try again with it off (which will delete the schedule of future recordings but will not delete the recordings that have already been made).
Put the box on BBC1 HD for about 30 seconds and the EPG will be complete (but don’t leave it on the EPG page itself and wait expecting it to fill, just leave it on the channel).
Hello Martin,
I followed your instructions and am happy to tell you that I think the issue is fixed, also when I set a recording from BBC 1 or 2 the guide asks me if I want to record in HD or SD, this has ever appeared till I followed your instructions, also before I followed your instructions the guide was not up to date, because when I did a default retune it was like the whole guide was updated as there are programmes that are listed that were not listed before.
Is there a way to pass this issue on to Humax as feedback so they can fix it in future update.
Thank you very much for your help.
Any more help would be appreciated.
Thanks

I would be astonished if Humax weren’t aware of the problem already; I don’t know if Barry has a comment to make. In my experience the Smart tune implementation (whilst a good idea if properly implemented) is likely to cause more problems than it solves.
Matthew, two points:
1. The likelihood of there being any further updates to the 4000T/5000T seems rather unlikely after all this time.
2. The point about offering SD/HD when setting up a recording is something these boxes have done for ages, but it only offers it if you have selected the programme from the SD part of the EPG. That is presumably in case you selected SD in error and would prefer HD.
Sounds more like the box was tuned to more than one transmitter so didnt/couldnt link the SD and HD broadcasts.

If you are talking about the SD/HD selection offer, this is perfectly normal with definitely one transmitter tuned, as I have. Try an EPG recording from BBC1 SD, perhaps the News at 6, and you should see it.

That’s not what I said.
Of course it’s normal with one transmitter but if the box was picking up HD from one transmitter and SD from another it may not give the prompt.

Ah, OK. I was not sure what you meant. That clarifies it.
I’m having the same problem with ‘no programme information’. I have tried going to BBC 1 HD but unfortunately hasn’t worked foe me.
I have cleared cookies and done manual as well as default retune. Switched off in wall, removed aerial and put back in, but still no luck.
I should be with Crystal P. transmitter although no way it shows in the TV.
I tried emailing Humax but it just comes back as non deliverable!
Thanks in advance.
Try setting a “wakeup” timer on BBC1 HD at say 7am then see if it populates.
Also whilst waiting for the program info to appear do not use the remote.

It is called a Power Timer. Usually recommended to turn off after about 20 minutes.
Thank you I will give it a try.
