I lost my recordings this morning and was about to post here for help but saw a thread with the similar problem, so i followed the reboot solution an got my recordings back!
But now I’ve lost the Freeview play options that appear on the bottom of the HOME Page, and when I press the “ON DEMAND” button I simply get a list of recommended shows and no way to access the Freeview play channels like All 4, iPlayer etc.
Should I do another reboot?
*EDIT* – I found the Freeview list via the “Players” option so it is just the quick access menu on the HOME page that is the outstanding issue now.
Yes it is.
I have similar symptoms, the number of icons on the quick access bar has reduced to 6.
I am thinking that perhaps this quick access is the most recently used apps? Therefore unused apps drop off the list after a period of time.?
Weird….I just checked mine and the icons have all returned to the home page! 😯
All I need now is to find a way for my recordings page to stay on Grid setting….

Do you use power saving mode?
No, I switched it off as it was causing the box to override my TV signal.
Mine has gone weird tonight, YouTube has vanished and a load more of the apps. I have pulled the plugged a few times and the same, so something weird is going on.

A simple splitter connected to the aerial will give a seperate signal to the TV and box.

It will save you some money as the power consumption is a bit higher as the name suggests.
Well, that was the advice I got from these forums.
But I’ll take it into consideration. Thanks!
Okay, this is weird – I bought a splitter today, attached it and changed my power management setting on the 400T to “on” and it seemed to work but then tonight it’s decided to revert back to the old problem of the box overriding the TV again when it’s switched on! 😯
So off goes the power management again… 😳

Try a different HDMI port. Some TV’s auto select when power is applied at the remote end of the hdmi lead which of course means you lose live TV. When waking to make a recording the box briefly powers up the hdmi port. You can test this by removing the hdmi cable about 30 mins before a recording is due and then watching the TV using it’s own tuner.
Tried this but to no avail.
Thanks for the suggestion though.
Quote:when I press the “ON DEMAND” button I simply get a list of recommended shows and no way to access the Freeview play channels like All 4, iPlayer etc.I have the identical problem which happened after the sofwtare update this year. See BBC, ITV, C4 etc players greyed out and not usable
I am connected to the Internet and powering OFF / ON to force a reboot does not fix it.
The players are still as I can play direct from the EPG for earlier broadcasts, there but I cannot access the players themselves.
The workaround for the ITV Hub, for example, is to play an old ITV program from the EPG. Now press the UP ARROW to get the ITV Hub menu at the top from which you can select SEARCH, CHANNEL etc.
I emailed Humax Support and I am waiting for their response.
