Could it be the TV antennae cable? Could be. How's it cabled? Antenna wall port straight to T4? Or via a splitter - antenna wall port to splitter, splitter to both TV and T4? If the former, does the new TV get an FTA signal if you move the antenna cable over to it? If the latter, does the new TV ge...

Perhaps not mobile friendly.

Edit - on a mobile, press the bank of dots at the bottom to reveal some further buttons.

Will this work? - send all recordings directly from the T4 to the V2 (via USB and a USB hub) to the V2 Hard Disc. Then use the V2 for all playback. You can "mount" the T4's "Movie" share on the V2. Then to play the T4's recordings through the V2 to the TV, open the media selecti...

my t3 crashed again, is this the place to send the log? The message goes away real quick!

I think it ran out of memory (or some other resource) when it started to timeshift.

It's been running 60 days without a reboot - that may have had an impact if there's some sort of memory leak.

MD posted there that Daniel Hall was on holidays, but was a but vague about when he'd be back. I don't think it was that vague. On 4-Jul he posted: "... Dan will be away until the end of the week, so unless it's urgent he will catch up on his return." 4-Jul was a Monday, thus Daniel Hall ...

Matches my recollection too.

…for a t2 single tuner, but that future proofing costs $90. You want a tuner with the RTL2832U (demodulator) & R820T2 (tuner) chipsets. I've written about it plenty of times on here. No R828D tuner. No FC0012 tuner. Apparently the R820T2 is replaced by the R860 and is identical (except for name...

so following on from my other woes in the other post of the usb external hdd crashing, i deleted a whole lot of stuff from it thru the V2. But there never was a 'trash' folder on /media/usb where i have all timed recordings go onto. On media/hdd its actually the sd card, it shows as empty. Seems to...

I don't how to use the Web interface to run through the initial setup or connect to the Open Webif interface so I can then enter beyonwizu4 as the address in the address bar of the browser, as you have suggested

Simple question - is your U4 connected to your home network by ethernet cable?

And for recording playback, as far as I know.

Use the Web interface to run through the initial setup (This may or may not work until the network has been properly configured).

If the U4 is ethernet-connected to the local network, then very very likey it will.

Grumpy_Geoff

Did all that bar clearing EPG cache first. How do I do that? First step clears the EPG cache. I disabled then enabled IceTV then forced redownload of EPG and timers. I suggested a GUI restart - it always load a full EPG on startup. I suspect Daniel Hall is still trying to untangle the mess. When a ...

I rescanned and forced a full IceTV EPG load after making the change to the 7TWO on Prime channel lineup. Still no EPG data.

Did you clear the EPG cache first? -
disable IceTV
then re-enable it
I'd then restart the GUI

Today I tried recording 6 shows on five networks (and the tuners were on auto) and I got this screen when I came home and had to hard reboot from the back switch. "no free demux found" Appears to be a USB tuner limitation - see https://www.beyonwiz.com.au/forum/viewtopic.php?f=56&t=14...

I do know this. The EPG settings say 'Fake recording."

There are no Timers at all set for 17:30 of any type.

Well, I'm out ideas.
Enable debug logging and attach the log here when it happens again.

Grumpy_Geoff

Too complicated? Here's something simpler - disable the EPGRefresh plugin; it will no longer automatically run on its schedule. Watch live TV or a recording at 17:30 tomorrow - does the issue still happen? If yes, check the timers list and see if there's a zap timer running, set for 17:30 the curren...

This should have said 5:30pm. In any event this still happens every time my wife is watching at this time. The screen switches from playback automatically to live TV. Okay, I'll re-ask the questions in a different way because you've not given us *any* relevant information. On your computer, open th...

Easy questions first while between calls: Not absolutely sure but there is an NBN box on the wall in the garage with ethernet out to the current owner's router.

We're moving in 4 weeks so I'll have to setup everything again. I may buy a new router to improve WiFi reception. (Suggestions welcome MrQuade / Grumpy_Geoff / prl / others with working AUTOFS.) The new place has the NBN connection at the opposite end of the house and is not wired for ethernet but ...

Grumpy_Geoff

The router definitely seems the possible point of difference. I use an ASUS router as does MrQuade. I had the issue for a while, then it went away. To my recollection, MrQuade has not had the issue. What puzzles me is that only some of us have a problem. I note that at one point Grumpy_Geoff mused ...

I have checked the ethernet cable and it works with other devices. I'm assuming it's still the same as before - I have no "Network Interface" in my Network headings. I have 'network adaptor selection' and 'Password' directly below. Have you tried rebooting the T4 with the USB-ethernet ada...

Grumpy_Geoff

Nothing shows up in >Settings>network - just blank boxes. Reboot with the adapter already attached. You may need to do a few reboots before it gets detected. Then see if you can enable the adapter. Please confirm your firmware version from MENU>>Information>>About>>Revision.

I tried plugging the adaptor into the U4, both front & back USB ports but it couldn't see anything attached.

This would suggest the HDD is knackered. Did it have power and spin up in the enclosure (assuming it was a USB HDD enclosure)?

I have a 4 year old U4 with latest firmware that suddenly cant find its hard drive. When I turned it on, it crashed with an error msg on the screen but I was too slow to see what the error was, restarted and there is no hard drive. Device Information state under "Detected HDDs and Volumes:&quo...

As a test, if you delete the *.ap and *.sc files for a recording, does it then play to the end? What if you use "FFremux" (https://www.beyonwiz.com.au/forum/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=12458#p183367) What if you convert it off the box to MKV/MP4? Or just leave an extra 5 seconds now that you ...

Just confirming - when I press the TV out button on my T4, I see nothing on screen. By "TV out button" I presume you refer to the top left hand button on the remote next to the power button ? Nah - that's the "controlling the TV" button - you need the remote to be controlling th...

Given the absence of portions of the network display and the locking up when restarting the network, I'm liking your idea more and more there "99".

It's possible that the fault is one of the components hiding under the HDD - but none of those I can see appear to be bulging, cracked, or showing obvious signs of heat damage.
