Updated my box on Saturday night , reset it to defaults , no problems till watching home alone on Sunday night approx 7.05 , then the picture froze , switched to analogue tv and it was ok , switched back & still frozen picture , switched channels and they were ok , back to channel 5 and still froze , powered off box with the switch at the back and re-powered up - still frozen !!! , under pressure from kids now so watched end of film on analogue then switched back to humax and now picture ok , was able to rewind to when I switched box back on and could see the frozen part , it must have froze for 10 mins. any one else had this ?

EXACTLY the same experience! Very wierd. Updated mine this morning, and reset it to defaults, as recommended. Literally everything you have said happened to me too! It seems okay now, but I'd like to know what it was all about... Pleased I wasn't the only one.
