Has any one had trouble with the picture freezing when using the new Humax PVR. I can only cure this problem by rebooting. Any ideas?

Sadly this occurs on most new boxes, The only way you can cure such things is by rebooting.

Sometimes the problem is software based, eg. not being tested 100% before public release, Hopefully if thats the case, they will release an over the air update for it soon.

I still have a 1997 ONdigital stb, that has never suffered any problems whatsoever, my Pace Sky+ box has, and so has my Freesat+ box.

Now it beg's the question, is it something to do with how they are made, the hard disc perhaps, or the software?

My bet is my older box was made better than newer boxes (ie. newer boxes are made in thier thousands)

Happened to me watching Oz and James (SD) - paused it for some reason and it wouldn't come back - sound carried on but the picture remained frozen. Had to switch in and out of standby to get it back. Have to say it's the first real issue I've had but the thing, good as it is, only gets light use.
