HUMAX Foxsat HDR
I recently purchased this and am very pleases especially what little HD there is
![]() I have two queries if any one can help, I have tried to use the manual but its pretty useless. 1. How do you mark a station as favourite using the guide 2. How do you schedule series recording. Also If I am in none freesat mode, will it still record freesat scheduled recordings? |

If however you switch to non-fs mode within 15 mins of the fs schedule it will fail to record. Leaving the box in non-fs mode in standby should not be problematic as the box wakes up a T-15 to check the epg and will change modes automagically |

Leaving the box in non-fs mode in standby should not be problematic as the box wakes up a T-15 to check the epg and will change modes automagically The implication from the advice above is that when you are recording something in Freesat mode you can't watch anything in Non-Freesat mode. Is that true? |

Correct, by going to non-freesat mode you are turning off the features needed to record freesat programmes. The two modes are exclusive of each other.

You need to have nothing on the screen except for the picture when you press the opt+ button.

You also need to be in freesat mode. Favourites are not available in non-freesat mode.
I tried it in freesat mode and it gave the pop box and to save. - how do you access favourties, sorry manual is absolute shite, excellant box though. |

That explains a lot, I was trying it in non freesat mode, it does save to favourites but no idea how

As for using the favourites in freesat mode Press the ok button then the green button to select favourites then press green again to switch "Auto" to "Favourite 1", "Favourite 2" etc. |
