BT have made a change to the ISP config, so you need to check that you have the correct ISP config showing. Sluggish menu's etc were a known issue.The correct ISP config is 76. If it's currently anything else then you need to make sure you have done…

I have the Pace BT Vision+ box with IP Multicast Extra channels - this is my 'official' BT Extras box. I can also happily watch (though not record at present) all of the Multicast channels on both my Humax retail, and Hauwei (beta test) boxes. Th…

I have more of an issue than just wrong area.... We are in England, not wales, but only have a local Freeview Lite relay. We can also receive the full set of channels off Wenvoe, which carries Welsh PSB's. The issue with the Humax is that whil…
-
What is needed is that 'unavailable channels/programmes' perhaps get greyed out in the EPG so you can still select them to get info of even to watch (with a suitable clash warning) but it would make navigating much easier. And perhaps only those pro…

I have a similar issue with HDMI causing interference on the multiplex on Ch45 (666Mhz) - have to ensure the RF cable(s) are routed well away from any of the HDMI cables, and in fact, I have found on two cables I needed to fit some clip-on ferrites…

Yup. I get this too on the Panasonic TV via HDMI. Always when the box hasn't been used for more than a few hours and taking out of standby I get this, accompanied by no sound. I find that just putting it back into standby and then almost immediat…

(Quote) Glad you got it sorted.

The variable gain one should be OK, as that will give you some control over whether you actually do need much amplification or not. Please bear in mind though that if you are closeish to a main station transmitter that has gone through DSO in the…

Your description then does sound like it was a masthead amp with multiple outputs. For these, you only need a power supply on one of the cables. I have a 4-way on one of my aerials, but only have one power supply, but this can in fact be on any of t…

You haven't by chance pressed the TV button on the remote have you (which button lights up when you press the keys on the remote?)? Try pressing the PVR button and then using the remote.
-
You may find that the 'signal booster' was actually just the power supply for a masthead amplifier ... This applies power up the antenna cable to the actual amp block that is often fitted to the aerial mast. If you take this out, the amp will likely…

1) Fix the Humax 'out of region' failure to record issue (don't ask - but it IS an acknowleged and recognised 'feature' of only the Humax)! 2) Bring back Delete Confirmation 3) Blue Button straight to MyView 4) Record from buffer not just from…

In what way is it not 'compatible'? I had a Humax AND a 'TalkTalk' box connected to my 'old' Panasonic TH37PE30 non-HD Plasma TV via SCART until very recently (new full HD TV now installed) and whilst you won't get 'HD' in the true sense of the w…

Sounds like you need to perform a retune as it appears your box is missing the bulk of channels. Suggest you check your aerial cable into the YV box (no shorted screen to centre conductor) - remember that during a retune, the box is working out b…
-
Ok, well you need to check on the YV box what the allocated address is ... Or do that on the router. Then on a PC, run a CMD prompt (start>run> CMD) and type ping 192.168.1.55 or whatever the address is for your YV box ... The address above…

(Quote) Bloody auto correct on the iPad.... Can you PING it and does it respond ... Is what it should say!

Can you ping it's rom a PC, and does it respond?

How are you connecting your box to your router?does the box claim 'successfully connected to router' or some such after you have configured it? You don't have any content blocking or firewall on that port do you? Which ISP are you with and wha…
-
I'd suggest you setup your box with MANUAL network config ... I found that the most reliable. Check on your router which address range is for static IP addresses, and chose one that isn't used by anything else and enter this into your YV box. E…

Apart from the brief outage over the past day or so, I've been successful in setting up and scheduling recordings through the app, as has my Mrs on her iPad. I don't believe the action is instant though, and from what I understand the box polls t…

Same issue here on all three of our iOS devices. The app error could be better managed than 'implying' it's an issue with the local device or network rather than being a server-side issue. Had me hunting for a network problem which wasn't there.
-
I get it at about every 3rd or 4th switch-on ... Pink screen, no audio. Easily fixed by just toggling into standby and back on again, but it's a niggle that shouldn't happen and it's like the Humax just doesn't initialise it's HDMI interface properl…
-
Aaaaaaaaargh! I'm now in the doghouse due to the quick delete. Had a whole string of progs in a 'folder' to delete ... About 20 or so. Box must have buffered a couple of lagged remote presses, because it got to the last prog in the folder, came o…

Beg to differ ... My Humax most certainly DOES auto-switch TO the HDMI source on my Panasonic E5B ... But when it is put into standby, it holds the source open (black screen) for a period, forcing me to have to switch to either TV or another AV sou…
-
How are you connected? By HDMI or SCART? There should be a setting on the TV that enables auto-input switching, but the problem I find is that with SCART and Low-Eco, it doesn't ever drop pin 8 (so the TV never sees a valid switching signal on the i…
-
BackupTV :-) ... Oh, hang on, perhaps that would get them sued by TopupTV as its an obvious and blatant ripoff of the name, just like YouView is a ripoff of YouRview (not)
-
(Quote) Nope. Just shows a pink guide. Just had it and just tried it ... Only remedy is to stick it into standby and back on again.
-
Oddly enough, I too get this 'pink screen' issue occasionally. It does seem to be an HDMI startup negotiation issue, and is usually (though not always) accompanied by no sound. I tend to switch the YV box back into standby and immediately back on, a…
-
(Quote) What it DOES do that other devices don't is to integrate ALL of the main broadcasters OD/catchup into one box with a simple and intuitive interface and EPG. Sony promised things live 4od, ITV player and Demand 5 on some of their very expe…

The update to the card is a positive action, and may include new decryption key(s) as well as subscription end date updates. If you end your sub, your card address will be excluded from the update process and you therefore will not get an updated su…
