You force the use of 2 tuners by manual extend when channels are different and on same mux is what I tried to say ... never mentioned same channels situation.

Humax made the right choice on this to maintain greatest viewing frexibility... I watch live telly. If you never watch live telly then I suppose you would disagree... BUT the majority should take precedence. El. |

1. Add ability to switch to channel rather than record it.
2. Use 2nd tuner if available when surfing channels to retain buffer contents. 3. Ability to delete from recorded program list rather than having to go to record menu. 4. EPG to be saved to disk for instant access on boot (if possible) 5. More items on guide. 6. Option to have non authorised channels removed from guide automagically. ( I know I could set up favorites) 7. Option to automatically switch on subtitles when audo muted. 8. Option to removed recorded items after a certain time (month, weeks, never) 9. Multiplexor info screen so we know what is on which. 10. Option to make remind me to make a cup of tea (every half hour/ hour etc)

10.1) I forgot to mention, a 14 day guide would be great.

I've not upgraded the loader before but the firmware upgrades via the laptop have been pretty straightforward (at least compared with some of the tools that I've used with development boards).

And you can make it use two by manual update of one of the reservations to overlap. Quote:

It seems from what some write that the 4TV EPG takes control of the PVR to do the download... which means some only download once a week!

My wish would be to be able to transfer files transferred from the Humax using Media Elinker back to the Hiumax for replay on TV. This would allow for long term storage using an external USB hard drive.

It would be nice if the 9200T could emulate the Top-up TV anytime software. I don't like the Thomson DTI-6300-16.

This may have been mentioned before, (too lazy to trawl thru), but removal of all on screen messages from VCR scart, a real pain when transferring

The new software bug in v10 - loss of hard disc capacity if PIP feature is used during playback - needs to be addressed. My hard disc is usually 60-80% full, and a disc reformat is rarely an option without losing recordings.

Remove the "double press of play button takes you back to the beginning of the recording" feature - it's so easy do press it twice accidentally.
Alternatively, require at least a 1 second interval between presses. |

I'd like a change in the way the OK button works in the EPG. Sometimes it's difficult to tell if the highlighted program has passed, is present or is future. If it's future, pressing OK sets the record schedule, which you may not want. Why not use the Record button to set up a recording schedule (on the current or future program) and the OK button just to go to the current program.
John. |

Just wanted to highlight that the date issue is still ongoing. I leave my Humax on most of the time (to save waiting for the EPG to load) and find that every so often it starts recording items with future dates (either the next day or next week depending on what the frequency of the repeat recording is set to).
Switching the Hummy off then back on does seem to fix the problem for a while (although only a few days in the last case). Any word on whether this is due to be fixed? - Marc? others? Cheers Alan |

Having used version .10 since before Christmas, my current wishlist is :
1) Single keypress to access the palylist (without sliding that stupid flap) 2) Correct synopsis for a recorded program if auto-padding is used 3) Include date & time as a sub-sort of the alpha sort Brian |

All has been fine on the latest firmware until the last few weeks.
Some records cut short and others don't record at all. This make the box unusable for scheduled records. It seems to be worse with repeat recording. From the program guide (with repeats in it) the scheduled recording list appears blank until the down key is pressed. Turn the box off and on fixes this for a short time. |
