Dave Lindsay: Just a little clarification on a point I made, insomuch that the time slot allocated for an equipment download can be classed as similar to you informing someone else on the PC that you will make a file available for them to download for a certain period of time, but with them deciding when they wish to do it within the time slot you gave, this being why on the aforementioned Humax's it enables the user to decide.

David Parker: Pity about Argos being out of stock of the HD-Fox T2, but its something that just shows how popular these are. I also noticed that Curry's is currently advertising them @ £89.99 for shop pick up only, and should a branch be near to your location it would enable you to have a no-obligation study at them.
The Humax site also had re-graded versions at the excellent price of £59.00 in their "managers specials" these coming with a full guarantee, however as would be expected the "No Stock" banner is seen displayed.

jb38: The device in question is a Sony RDR-HXD870.
This brings me on to another point. In this forum a number of people have reported issues with Humax devices repeatedly freezing on a particular day; usually Wednesday.
I observed that on the same day, a firmware update was broadcast for the model(s) in question.
As a logical thinking technical person I wondered whether the two were linked. I asked if these people switch their machines off at the wall when not in use. I have to date not had any response to confirm either way whether it was the firmware upgrading process that was inconveniencing their viewing and for which they probably powered it off at the wall again to get it to work.
It stands to reason that during the upgrade process of firmware, any device will be innoperable. Does it sound feasible that these experiences are caused by the firmware upgrading process, for which, apparently, the device has attempted a number of times, only to have its power disconnected?
I should point out that I would leave my device powered on at the wall if there were a way to opt out of the Updates at 2am and 5am. I switch it on at the wall when I get up and usually don't use it immediately; the objective being so as to allow it to update/build up the EPG as well as being ready to record the programmes that I've set.

now i am getting confused do you or do you not turn your power off at night,The amount of power these new unit's use is about the same as 15 watt light bulb.Do you keep it on in case there is a upgrade for the box,how do we find out if there is one?,can we look at a page to see,and do they only upgrade at night?

David Parker: Software updates can start on one morning and end at about the same time on the next or even longer, so there is no need to keep a box switched on during the night provided a weekly check is made to ensure that an update hasn't been scheduled to take place at some point during the week, as if it has then you can choose your own time that's suitable to carry out a manual software up date during the time slot indicated.
Unfortunately I cant give the link from what I am presently replying on, but its the DRG's download schedule list which you can access from Google.
If you are using a device like Humax then its plain sailing as the brand "Humax" is listed, but the snag that exists if not using something like a Humax but possibly a Vestel chassis device like Hitachi, Sharp, Digiholme, Wharfedale, Bush and a multitude of other well known brand names, is that the list generally indicates Vestel followed by a chassis number version, and as such a non technical person is not likely to know what version of the chassis is applicable to their brand name.
I will send the link early on tomorrow morning when I am back on my own PC.
