About this deal

And I don't think most of the "other Satellite" functions are activated until you've done a minimal (Single TP should do it! The EPG is also superb, using an instantly accessible grid layout and excellent use of the remote keys to skip forward in time or switch to a List view.

What’s particularly helpful is the way every menu screen is accompanied by a legend at the bottom showing what buttons you need to press. The quality of standard-definition pictures on this box compares very well with those of Sky and Freeview, but as with any digital TV platform the quality varies wildly depending on the broadcast quality – ITV channels, for example, look awful but the BBC’s roster looks a lot sharper and cleaner. To regionalise your programming you are asked to enter your postcode, but it is not fussy if it is the correct location for you or not – we setup our test unit in the South West with programming for South East, for example. the comments above were made when my HDR was actually recording, ergo many other functions were temporarily suspended. On the rear is an excellent array of sockets including an HDMI output, which is the best way to watch hi-def channels or standard-def channels upscaled to 1080i or 720p.Unless I've missed something on re-reading this thread, I don't see any issue where the CF for the Foxsat is at fault or is not working as intended. To retune in Freesat mode requires access to the Freesat home transponder which is a horizontally polarised transponder. One thing - Do you know where I can get the original firmware if I manage to cock the system up and have to try to install the custom firmware from scratch for any reason? Yes, it is similar to the T2 CF as the Foxsat version started out as a port of the early version of the T2 CF, but they diverged very quickly (and a long time ago).

Check the stick after the flash (it's been a long time - pretty sure the file is renamed or deleted during the install. Turn off the box using the rear power switch for 5 - 10 mins to make sure you are starting from a full sby situation. As with Freeview, quality also differs between providers with the quality seeming to deteriorate as you setup through numbers. Freesat is subscription-free and it gives you an ever-growing selection of TV channels and radio stations including the BBC and exclusively, ITV, in high-definition. I got a feeling something has gone wrong with my custom firmware installation as nothing seems to that straight.Have you installed the custom firmware and the Twonky Media package plus nowsters patch and the convertfiles package ? hdf file onto the usb stick, put the foxsat into standby, wait for the disk noise to stop, switch off at the back (rear left hand side rocker), plug in the usb stick to front usb socket, switch back on at rear, file should start to load. take the 256mb usb stick, fully format it in windows to FAT, don't allow a quick format and don't format to fat32, copy the FOXSAT-HDR_upgrade.

How are you people streaming your recordings on your smart TV, as not everyone has android built in tv?

I think It was also possible to force a rebuild which I needed to do initially - it was some time ago however. When I go in to Media Library I notice that instead of BBC Two HD it shows the channel number next to the file name.

Many people will also be concerned about fan noise, but we’re happy to say that the unit runs as quiet as a mouse.
