    Sidecar and moving files back to the FOXSAT-HDR from a PC

    I have looked under "WebIF/Package Management" for details of the SIDECAR functionality to recreate the two supporting files (hmt and nts) but cannot find it. I am doing this because I have a number of files that were converted to MPEG-2 M2TS via VideoRedo and I am reading different things...

    Video Freeze then audio goes then a hard restart is required

    For the record here are the results of "smartctl" after the reformat via: umount /mnt/hd3 mkfs.ext3 /dev/hda3 I know it is very top level but before the format the "Used" pie chart stood at a little over 18.6GB with only one very short recording on the unit but now stands at 0.1GB. I...

    Video Freeze then audio goes then a hard restart is required

    Here are the results of "smartctl" to be read 001, 002, 003 with some overlap. There are a series of errors (numbered 6389n) as follows:

    Video Freeze then audio goes then a hard restart is required

    So I pulled the HDD connector out and that has stopped the video freeze/sound loss "crash" so I guess it is safe to conclude it's a hard disk issue that's connected to the block issues that fix-disk has reported. I'll install and try smartctl and then do the format from Maintenance Mode as...

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- That was what I did originally so the disk is now pretty much empty apart from a short test recording done after it was reformatted (which was done...

    No it's not your problem and I did prefix my reply with "poor use of terminology on my part". This surely is, at best, a minor side issue?

    Video Freeze then audio goes then a hard restart is required

    Understood - poor use of terminology on my part as I tried to explain that I didn't understand that WebIF was that specific web page.

    Video Freeze then audio goes then a hard restart is required

    Thanks for the instructions. Once I realised that WebIF was the browser I quickly found the instructions and got to "Maintenance Mode" via telnet very quickly (open a Windows "cmd" window and telnet the unit's IP address). The attachment (002) shows the results (I did not intervene at any...

    Video Freeze then audio goes then a hard restart is required

    HUMAX FOXSAT HDR After many years of fautless service about 2 weeks ago my HUMAX started behaving oddly. It was operating with what was the last officially supplied firmware (from 2012?). It would work for a while (10-15 minutes) and then when I changed channel it would go to a black screen...
