... My TV and my Onkyo depend upon a signal from the Wiz, so guess the order should be Wiz-Onkyo-TV ... My T4, as it was with the DP-P2, is connected through the Onkyo AMP was always started, last. This was probably more important with the P2, using HDMI as the audio (rather than optical) handshaki...

Oh dear that all seems so tedious! I can edit out commercials quicker by transferring to via ProjectX or TSDoctor and do the edits there. If the recording doesn't have any glitches or require subtitles, then do it in Womble with a proper timeline. I completely agree with Netmask's comment. Having o...

Sydney full scan, as of today.

No, but that is not to say that someone didn't without my knowledge, at some stage. The back up did take considerable time, so I am only guessing that it was changed. Check the firmware update thread starting from here for some discussion on this point. Cheers Mr Quade. I have been on the phone to ...

No, but that is not to say that someone didn't without my knowledge, at some stage. The back up did take considerable time, so I am only guessing that it was changed. As I haven't restored, the back up settings should be as per firmware update. I can only hope that it is "as required" now.

dhphoto

The backup being restored certainly overlaid data, as such. I checked the Box Info before/post the restore and were different, showing the regression: Firmware version: 4.4.20151104 - post upgrade vs 4.4.20150831 - post upgrade restore ... Gui version: 2015-10-30 - post upgrade vs 2015-08-31 - post ...

I performed the re-install of the latest firmware via USB, without restoring thereafter. The menu settings looked more complete, so that was a plus. I had a quick look including activating the Full Metal vs the default Easy skin. But, without time to play at the moment, I gave up on tailoring (mount...

dhphoto

It doesn't look correct, that is for sure.

I can attempt a re-install of the firmware and not restore and check the settings/menu first. Maybe try my luck and customise again without using the back up. Thanks, Ian.

dhphoto

I backed up, leaving the settings as "default", and then post T4 USB Update, it asked to restore the settings which I did an all appeared fine--this was about 1 week after public upgrade was released. I'd only had a quick look around as the timers and mounts etc, were all there, I'd not bo...

I appreciate you digging up the file, thanks. I'll give it a miss due the LCN numbering still needing to be in order.

Good that it is here for others as an easy find reference under this thread with LCN in the title.

dhphoto

I agree with the new methodology, but Miss Prissy is used to specifically entering the LCN--very much old school. I have just reverted a T4 back to what she is comfortable with. It is a shame that the LCN values cannot be retained when making your favourite list (easily), I did this more so for EPG ...

I cannot comment on the T3, as I only have DP series units and now a shiny T4. I had an Android Media Box to play my MKVs as the DP Series was a no go for my files and I certainly expected the T4 to be more than capable; for me it is. Not all MKVs are created equally as there are so many customisabl...

dhphoto

I received my T4 Barebones today, performed the upgrade then had a bit of a play. MKV is of great interest, so I could move an Android device elsewhere (purely for MKV), where this will sit. MKVs served DLNA wise via my very old, but reliable, WD ShareSpace NAS is no go. It can see the file, as well...

Well, I must admit the new layout (having been away from it in a very long time) of the forum caught me out. I was on page 1 ... hadn't seen, and therefore, read page 2. But thank you for gentle nudge to show me the error of my way.

dhphoto

A premium seems to be charged for a T3 supplied with internal HDDs.

It would appear that this unit would require removing the full cover, which may contain an anti-tamper warranty sticker ? Would the warranty become null and void, if you were to supply/install your own HDD ?

We have multiple Beyonwiz boxes and all see and play off each other. Within the Router (modem/router) we use fixed IP addresses for all devices on the LAN. I seem to suffer from some sort of madness and insist in assigning addresses that have a meaning, to me at least. This also allows us to see a l...

TV Ratings ... the networks live and die by them. Ratings are provided daily. Bad ratings, less revenue from advertisers. I've never seen a ratings box, let alone known anyone who was selected to use one. Nothing surprises me with ratings. We all know of shows that have survived for years, that many...

Interesting CoTD advised to call Beyonwiz Support. I sent off a question to CoTD about what constituted the 'Catch Warranty' and here is their response: Catch warranty means if it's faulty within 12 months - you can return it to us. We do not at this point have facilities for repair so a credit woul...

My S1 had not caused me grief, but it was very old. The unit was well used, probably the most used of any Wiz box, in the house. We always, put this in standby and it has been well ventilated. Lately I could hear, intermittently, an HDD tick. Recycle in/out of standby, and it would be fine. Front pa...

Hopefully this is not a trend for the refurbished units. Unit testing should have highlighted these faults. A unit purchased via Deals Space (aka DPG), went through it's 'burn in test' before I could collect it. I convinced a neighbour to purchase from CoTD and he purchased two units, so on my head ...

We are experiencing the occasional stutter/pause, for LCN 70 [Seven HD], only. It is very intermittent and appears to be TV show specific. This is different to a pixelation issue, almost like a loss of signal but the screen doesn't go black/blank but rather freezes at the last received frame. My dau...

My daughter keeps trying to take off with our H1. She has given me authority to offer $100 for a 2nd hand H1, including delivery.

G'day, Is there any way to scan for channels without losing the timer list? I believe you can scan an individual channel, lose the the timers for that, but the others are left alone. I'm sure someone will bounce me if I'm wrong. I have used the following methodology, when doing partial scans. All t...

Tony, I like your way of thinking, I just wish I could verify your theory vs actual visuals. I have renamed the two versions of WizFX, so I can run them in parallel. I have ensured only one Beyonwiz box is turned on, the P1. Currently there is only a 5min CH7 HD news item that I cropped on the box, ...

I'm still on F/W .280 on all boxes. The last time I attempted the later version of WizFX, I had all Beyonwiz boxes in standby [ EDIT : I thought I did, but one must have been still running]. I actually didn't do anyting, but start up WizFX and then attempt to close it again, without success. The old...

I've just bought a Philips SRU9600 8 in 1 remote that won't talk to my wiz remote (Wiz not listed in remote) any suggestions? Looking at the online pricing for the remote, I'd be seriously considering returning it for exchange, or for another brand. Nothing is supposed to be so difficult .. as far ...

dhphoto

I haven't downloaded the latest version, as I generally move recordings using the GUI from the Beyonwiz boxes. This allows me to request them to enter standby, on completion. I use VRD which will combine all the entries, so having 32mb is not an issue for me. Just an observation. I have had issues, ...

I am wondering if my NAS is going to sleep during the streaming process ... I have the same NAS (discounting the poor JPEG playback of the Beyonwiz) and have not experienced any speed issues.

Agree, please segregate.

Well, I guess the time has come to adjust the Boss' Ten HD Timers to be plain old Ten SD ones, or I'll be in the bad books with her.

I thought I'd perform a TS recording, but something dodgy with the internals, as it recorded the 7 SD each time ... I didn't bother to chase that down, as MPG is fine--if I ever need a recording on the PC. I had initially checked the TS & MPEG files on the PC, and discounted the TS one when I s...

I have an old PC and the Leadtek card, a DTV1000 T, is not the youngest, either. I had a look and couldn't see where any of those settings could be adjusted. The only settings in WinFast PVR2 were TS or MPEG. I performed a test on 7 HD for 45 secs or so: S:\$SAVE\TV Recordings\Test MPG.mpg General C...

A partial scan is not sufficient to do the SBS or TEN updates properly. To ensure that things continue to work reliably, you need to delete all TV and Radio services for TEN (which removes the timers) and then do a partial scan. If you are lazy, like me, you can perform a temporary move of current ...

I have to agree, there. I was an early adopter of digital archival. I always had dual sets of backups, and tried to have different branded media for each set. As the storage media became cheaper, and greater capacity, I moved to the next format ... I have systematically copied the CD backed up data,...

Now with the "TEN SD2" and "TEN HD SPORT" logos either side of top corners, it is such a quality look. Maybe I need to watch it on a 12" LCD to do it any justice. It is almost as bad as other stations attempting to scrub out other supplier logos

So in terms of the Wiz - do we do any time of rescan now or do we wait till the 26th March (if at all)? Pete. I rename my channel names so they do not scroll.

It appears that WA are experiencing the most reception/recording issues ... is this a pattern, I wonder.
