Followed all the directions in an email from Freesat this evening but still no Showcase/On Demand.
A week with a hobbled box at this stage.
Might be interesting to know what the directions were.

Icons have reappeared on Showcase and On Demand. Not, so far, on the EPG.
EPG icons have now returned.

Check if On Demand & showcase is now working.
Place the box in standby and wait for 10 mins. (note: There should not be any impending recordings)
Take the power connector out (wait for 30secs)
Place the power connector in (wait until the red light on the box appears)
Take the box out of standby
Press the exit key when you see the freesat home screen.
Wait for 5 mins. Then check On Demand and showcase is now there

InactiveThanks evilivor.

Rebooting as normal or a factory reset?

InactiveThe player icons are now back along with showcase and I haven’t had to do a thing. The programme indents are still in a plain text format though. Perhaps this is a new format for the indents and isn’t a fault at all?

They’re known as idents, not indents. And they’re unchanged.
The EPG idents reappeared on my box gradually during an hour or so after the OnDemand icons had resurfaced. Probably float down as the EPG is updated

So when you say they are back, are we talking about in their corporate logo guise? I hadn’t lost them in the first place it’s simply that instead of the branded recognisable idents they are all in the same plain text format.

InactiveAll the logos have now returned on my box also and I didn’t do a reboot etc.

InactiveEverything seems to be working on my 1010S now without doing anything more than putting it into standby when not in use. I never saw it working before so have nothing to compare to, but from what I’ve read on here it sounds like it’s all as it should be.

Showcase & OnDemand both unavailable, I’m back to getting the connect message.
It was all working fine for a week or so.
(Old box)
After JamesB’s step forward, is there any change on your unit?
Still nothing yesterday, but after unplugging it this morning both showcase and OD reappeared. (Second time I’ve done that to get them working) Hopefully that’s it now and no more unplugging will be needed.

Original branded icons. Eg Channel 4 HD is fancy 4 with superscript hd.

Inactive“Original branded icons” (not that original but I know what you mean)
I’m not really that bothered but I think “Ident” or Station Identification Logo sounds much better.

InactiveArrived home from the office this evening and everything is now back to normal.
Does any one know what the issue was. I read some mention of Humax servers. This peaked my attention as I wasn’t actually aware the functionality of the box is dependant on Humax’s servers.
