Review: Good Product but flaky and poor support from Humax - I bought this box at the beginning of September and was very happy with the features, ease of use and functionality. However it did lock up a couple of times causing me to loose the program that I happened to be recording. Then last week when switching it on the message "Boot fail, Invalid signature" came up on the screen and the unit refused to boot. I emailed Humax support immediately and when they failed to respond, phoned them. Humax Support asked me to fill in an exchange document and email it back to them with proof of purchase, which again I did immediately. In the form (which I returned a week ago) is a preferred exchange date and I had set that day to today. Two days ago I received a reply to my original email informing me that the item would have to be exchanged. I replied (immediately) to tell them that I had already filled in and returned the required documents. The next day I received a reply asking for my postcode, I sent the postcode straight back. Today, the day of the exchange, I received an email informing me that they had no record of receiving the exchange documents and could I resend them. I appreciate that emails do go missing but what I find really annoying is the slow response time from Humax Support. I had to arrange for someone to be available to make the exchange and will now have to do so again with no guarantee that it will actually take place. This could have been avoided if the support team responded within a reasonable time. So, in conclusion, early days for the product with obvious glitches in the hardware and software, but promising for the future if Humax get their act together. My advice give them 6 months to iron out the crinkles. 30.11.2012 UPDATE I have now received an assured exchange date from Humax 28.12.2012 UPDATE I have had a new unit from Humax for a number of weeks now it has frozen twice but otherwise is running smoothly.
Review: This really ought to be better... - As a few others have said, when this box works, it is brilliant. I had one for over a year with no problems whatsoever - intuitive & attractive interface, fast access to On Demand and simple ways to record programmes or whole series. However, after a year and a bit it began to misbehave. Freezing, recording only parts of programmes, refusing to pause or rewind - and not always allowing resets etc. to be performed, and basically wasting hours of my life while I tried to figure it out. Eventually, in email conversation with Humax, they agreed to replace it, which I was impressed with. I got a replacement towards the end of July and it was fine for a month or so, but now has also started doing strange things. It froze on one channel, then the picture broke up and disappeared. It also refused to allow a reset to take place (error message), so the only option was to turn it off for a long time and hope it might come back to life. It did at first, and said it needed to retune - but after successfully doing this, froze at the '100%' screen, went blank, and now will not come on again after turning it off - not even the orange light. This is incredibly poor for something that cost over £200. I'm afraid the online forums are full of people complaining about this sort of problem, and really I'm astonished that they're still selling them. Clearly there are some major things that need ironing out. The fact that I've had two dodgy ones in a row shows you the likelihood of getting a good one! It's such a shame, because I really thought it was great at first - I'm sure it could be.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Humax KNOW how to make PVRs!
*by R***1 on 9 May 2013*

Ive tried several PVRs from different brands over the past few years, never satisfied, always having missing recordings, non working series links, un navigatable EPGs, and the worse problem of all, un responsive machines! When you press a button on the remote you want it to move on the screen within a second..... well....Im so glad I found this machine!!! Its brilliant!!! It simply works! I wont go into all the tech stuff about Youview and On Demand blah blah cuz you can look that up in the specs. What I love about this machine is... Responsive - always withing a second of pressing a button Fast EPG, to populate and navigate Easy to set recordings (single or series) and oh so fast! Attractive EPG with small screen top right showing what channel you were on (with audio).. Pretty much whatever you are navigating you still get the preview box top right :) Remote Control is a good shape and size, buttons are sensible places. Qucik access "Guide" button into the EPG or press the blue "Youview" button to access other menus like your library "my view" settings, On Demand etc... Its all done in a sleek left and right press on the remote control. When watching recording back from library "My View" it is so nice the ammount of control you have.. skip forwards goes 1 minute at a time, and skip back goes back 15 seconds at a time - which when you think about it, its perfect...you go a litttle too far and edge back a little at a time (well done Humax). and I must add that the speed is amazing, no buffering, no waiting a few moments while it skips, it just flies and is instant.. same for fast forward, it goes upto something like 30X speed but you can see the exact time and speed on the bottom display bar and its instant responce to your remote click :) You can "hide" your unwanted channels.. personally out of 117 channels I hid all but 13 as so many dross channels out there.. anyway, when you are in the EPG you then rearrange them... I hid BBc1 bbc2 itv and C4 because there are HD versions of them... and do you know what this clever little box did? It knew what I had done and then put the HD versions of those channels slotted at the top of the pprogramme list!! It just knew what i wanted lol. As soon as Ive posted this Ill remember something else i have forgot... It runs quiet, the front light displays are enough to look cool but not too much to annoy. Picture quality superb, even on upscaled channels. Well done Humax, it seems they have really sat down and thought this machine and its functions through carefully. I hardley ever write reviews but Im just so impressed I dont mind singing Humaxs praises as its well deserved. This machine is AWESOME, do not hesitate, BUY IT Mr Happy
