CLOCK SHOWING WRONG TIME ON NEW HUMAX 1000s

There is no slow motion button
VOD freezing is most likely down to your internet connection or network link being too slow.”

According to the manual there should be, it says hold down the play button during playback of a recording.

As I said it states in manual, if you press the play button when playing back a recording it should activate slo mo

I would do a post at http://myhumax.org/forum/forum/hdr-1000s they probably haven't looked at the manual either.
I have occasionally used Slow-Mo on my Foxsat, so I would actually like this feature to work on the 1000s.
(I don't suppose the manual mentions a way to add bookmarks ?
)
I have discovered another problem with my Humax 1000s if I record and hour programme it actually records for over two and a half hours

That's one I did record (series recording). It's exactly 1 hr on my box
Something very strange going on.
Can you tune to channel 407, then check signal strength and quality on tuner 1 ?
Settings - System Information - Signal Info.

Tuner 1 Signal Strength Good - Quality Normal

What does normal mean in terms of the bar graph percentage. Never seen this on any channel all mine say good.

I think I actually prefer the previous remote, I'd got 2 of the Foxsat HDR 500 remotes as the OH likes to have her own (1 each..lol) so I've found myself using the older remote more than the one supplied with the 1000S even tho it's less sensitive. I prefer the feel of the buttons a bit more on the old one, I'm getting on a wee bit and have arthritis in my hands/fingers and I find the main buttons.. ie the one's that click require a bit more pressure.

yep well i had 2 the HDR ones as i have the feed from front room into back so when i got the 1000s i was buzzin that the hdr remote worked everythin needed so when sold the hdr it only went with the 1 remote (they not cheap) and i also prefer the hdr remote as i think the 1000s is bit too clicky for my liking....
I don't think the HDR 1000s supports slo-mo, I've certainly not found a button that does it. Tho I'm not too bothered about that.
I think there are however important omissions from the older model which needs to be added, one important one being the option to lock recorded files so they cannot be deleted without a pass code, and of course the ability to sort channels by type.
Hopefully future updates will address this and other issues and maybe even speed up the EPG tho I doubt it, IMO the EPG is still a little slow.
Also, though the channel identification icons on the left may look a little nicer, does anyone think as a result it is now not so easy to identify the channel names, IOW the text stating 'Channel Five' is clearer than some small channel symbol especially if some distance from the box.

While in the EPG hit the "list" key.
Can anyone tell me how you get the clock to display on the front panel of the Humax 1000s ? I had to do a factory reset and lost the front display of the clock as a result. I looked in Settings, but can't find it. Any help would be appreciated.

I rather think the extra time on your unit is down to new code to handle hard disk problems - the time seems to be be quite constant on most units.
I have a problem with the replay buffer (caused by a series of power cuts, which I think trashed the file which holds it.) my time is about 4 secs longer than standard.
I will reformat at some point after I have setup my schedule on the Foxsat and watched the existing stuff.

yeah well is strange that for all the time the tv screen and the front the hdr is blank i can hear they HDD rattling so to speak.... so would a re-format the HDD solve this problem and so then start up faster.....also would formatting the HDD lose all my scheduled recordings.....

I rather think a reformat would unless the disk really does have surface problems - the chances of this are very small.
Your schedule should remain intact but all your recordings would go.
If you go ahead please let us know how you get on.
