Re: Dead disk?
If your Beyonwiz has an external power supply, the first thing I would do is get a new power supply and see if that restores things.
Worst case is you have a spare power supply.

How to automatically turn on CC / Subtitles
G'day,
I was wondering it is possible to have CC / Subtitles automatically be turned on for all channels and recordings on my T2?
I realise not all channels and recordings have CC / Subtitles available.
Thanks.
