They installed Part Night Photo electric Control Units (PECU's) but did not get the more modern ones that can estimate when the summer and wintertime changes occur.
They work out the time of year by the daily hours of daylight and if the value is getting shorter or longer. http://www.cablejoints.co.uk/sub-pro...royce-thompson http://www.streetlightonline.co.uk/Photocells/ Apologies for drifting off the subject. Automan.

That's nothing, our local council just installed 3,300 photocells on our street lights that are stuck on GMT so don't change the on and off times correctly.

That's progress for you - we never had that problem when the lamplighter came every evening and lit all the gas lamps in our street

Which pvr of any description do you know of that didn't have bugs at launch ?. Many of the makers just give up a relatively short time after launch. You need a large dose of realism
![]() So the clock on the front, which most never see is 1hr wrong, so what . It doesn't affect the box operation in any way).Gave in on Humax Boxes due to constant problems with software updates. Willing to give new generation a go but already issues are appearing, Clock/HDMI etc. |

Clock Shows only summertime
Humax 1000s/GB/500gb
I have the same problem with clock, considering my 5 year old Humax did have auto summertime check this appears to be a poor oversight because it shows they have the knowledge, My slow motion button doesn't work either, plus the iPlayer and ITV player keep freezing as well, I'm afraid I can't recommend this product.

![]() ![]() To be honest I don't know if the HDR-1000S does housekeeping. Normal changes take place without you knowing it as they happen. So ironically the box may need to be on to pick up the time. |

![]() To be honest I don't know if the HDR-1000S does housekeeping. Normal changes take place without you knowing it as they happen. So ironically the box may need to be on to pick up the time. I did set up a check but forgot which day I did it - I turned off the Foxsat and was going to look the power consupion graph (OWL Intuition). Will repeat again tonight.. I think it may well, do something, perhaps just a wakeup, If an old series link should come alive near the end of a two week holiday how would it know otherwise. Edit: Perhaps the person who thinks their clock is still wrong has not turned it on since it was corrected - it may be the clock function is, for him, the main feature
