I've been considering buying one of these to replace another Freesat device which has gone belly-up.
I've been reading through the Humax instruction manual online, and find it doesn't quite answer some of the questions in my head. I hope someone can help with these:
1. I see reference to a facility for connecting a USB device to copy files. The manual is extremely vague as to whether files can be copied in both directions, and whether there are any restrictions on file types that can be copied. Can you copy video files from the internal drive onto a USB drive? And if so, can the files be used anywhere else, or are they encrypted?
2. On my previous Freesat device, I was able to connect one of the LNB connectors to an old Sky dish, and the other LNB connector to another dish which picks up Hotbird. Would the Humax be able to cope with this, or is it strictly capable of dealing with the Freesat channels?
Thanks.
