Wow, the 'ultimate prize' achieved so soon.
Today I successfully scheduled and recorded Batman on ITV4 at 10:15 from my office, which is several miles from my home. Altogether an amazing piece of work. Many thanks to you guys. I guess the only mystery is if the box is capable of this level of functionality why don't Humax integrate it within the standard system software? |

Running out of idea's now - can you try removing and re-installing samba. (Check the workgroup settings after th reinstall). This is a longshot but you never know - It could be a download problem.
Thanks again for all your help |

Accessing your HDR from the Internet Draft ) (with v4 of the media bundle installed) ![]() Fortunately, although my ISP only provides a dynamic IP address, it only changes when the router is rebooted. This has allowed me to use the fixed (static) IP method. Just as well really, as my router does not let me change the default dynamic DNS service provider it came with, which is no longer free. |

You can use other clients to update your DDNS service of choice. Relies on having a PC on at all times though.
Thanks. |

Hadn't thought of that, and indeed, a quick search does finds several. Any recommendations?
Thanks. |

Depends on your DDNS service. I've always just used what they recommend, usually use DynDNS which sems to be default on most routers and most recently DNS-O-Matic with DynDNS and OpenDNS which I have working with DD-WRT on my Buffalo routers.
I think I would be more inclined to buy a small UPS just to supply the router to ensure that it hangs on to the IP address in the event of a power cut (which are not that infrequent in this part of the world). |

DynDNS is the default on my Netgear DG834G router but appears to be no longer free

Are you sure? I still use DynDNS free and I haven't noticed anything not working recently.
There seems to have been a relatively recent change in charging policy whilst maintaining pre-registered free accounts. It's not clear whether they are still taking new free accounts under different terms. |

Looking at the DynDNS website I am not in the least bit sure but mainly confused.

TBH I do seem to remember the free account option not being totally obvious. I wasn't signing up for a free account though so didn't take too much notice. Think you might be right though, I can't seem to see a free option anymore.

Just a quick question about this bundle.
Can I use it to access a DLNA NAS drive? Graham. |

Cheers for that REPASSAC.
That's a shame. The Freeview Humax has the client built in! Graham |

Does this mean that there is an opprtunity to add this as part of this fantastic package at a later date?
The ability to transcode for example is cpu intensive and is normally handled or supported by a specialist chipset. Presently all of the firmware add-ons are simply add-ons, to the linux environment.The Humax settop application is untouched and has total control of the UI. |

It would appear that that you now have to take out a trial of dns pro and then cancel.
http://dyn.com/dns/dyndns-pro-free-trial/ Currently testing no-ip free with their dynamic update client as I have a test bed pc connected to the home network that does very little otherwise. I'll report on progress. |

Hi,
I've just installed this and it's very impressive. However I have a small problem: when I try to access the EPG Now / Next nothing shows up although the EPG is fully populated on the HDR. Also, and probably leading from that problem, when I try the EPG search the following error message comes up : Runtime Error: /opt/var/mongoose/lib/epg.class:517: no such table: epg in procedure 'epg' called at file "epg7day.jim", line 91 in procedure 'epg' called at file "/opt/var/mongoose/lib/epg.class", line 522 at file "/opt/var/mongoose/lib/epg.class", line 517 Any thoughts ? bsw |

Can you also check what free space you have on the HDR when Pictures or Music are selected. This condition has been seen before and a re-init has been the quickest way to resolve it so far. However very low space on the Music and Pictures partition could also be a possible cause - however the space requirements for the epg and all the other packages is quite modest. To re-init -you need to delete one file on the HDR /opt/etc/DO_NOT_DELETE_THIS_FILE using ftp (or telnet if you know how). Then reboot and you will be back to the basic web interface |

Hmmmm.
The web interface has stopped working, for no apparent reason. 'Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at 192.168.0.X.' It's been perfectly O.K. until today. Weird. |
