I have registered for the trial. I have no issues with Netflix, moderators or this forum in general. R-
I’m more than happy to test new firmware (Providing Humax replace the box if it’s bricked) as I have many issues I would love to discuss with Humax rather than bicker about it. From a consumer point of view there are many issues that need addressing, and from an IT specialist view there are far more.
Quote:Providing Humax replace the box if it’s brickedThat should not be a problem as you can already download the current firmware from the Humax Support site. So, apply for the trial, try the new softare and if you have problems, back it out and replace it with the current firmware.
Quote:From a consumer point of view there are many issues that need addressing, and from an IT specialist view there are far more.Correct on both counts! Hopefully the trial will allow both to be fixed. I am sure Humax is every bit as keen as we are to get this to be a great box.
How do you know the box will let you overwrite the firmware with an older version?

Believe me it will.
I have now installed the test software and it installed fine and the Humax still works
so those concerned it might get “bricked” should not be worried. The box does not lose any recordings but the recording schedule was deleted. It did catch me out with a question about Network, which I thought meant WiFi network, but actually lead to it doing an Automatic Tune of stations.
That is about as much as I am prepared to state here …
Barry: Is the private area open now for discussions about it?
I have installed well over a hundred beta versions on different Humax units and never has one been bricked.
John, Check PM’s
I’ve installed the software
Didn’t delete the schedule at all
I notice there is no settings menu which is a problem?
Recordings library screen note has smaller/more icons on which makes bit better use of my 50″screen
My recordings are defaulting to subtitles on (have to switch them on/off with the remote)

What is special about your 50″ screen?
Or is it just that if it were a smaller, or larger, screen you would still watch it from the same distance?
The settings menu is still there – navigate to the cog icon in the top right hand corner of the Home screen.
Hi Folks,
I know we are not supposed to discuss the specifics of the trial software here, but could anyone private message me to let me know if the Netflix app is working for them please? I’m having issues.
Cheers
If you have received the software from Humax, they will have given Barry your name, and he will have enabled you for the private area.
If Barry hasn’t done so yet, send him a PM.
If you are on trial then PM me or check your PM’s as I may have already given access to hidden area.
No discussions to take place on open forum.
All signed up and installed, asked about hidden area.
Hi, I am a new member to this forum and am interested in using this trial software on my FVP 4000T.
I emailed co_partnership02@humaxdigital.com a couple of days ago but have not yet received any response.
Is there any other action I need to take? How long should I expect to wait for a response? Or is it simply that I have not been selected?
Any answers would be greatly appreciated!
