Change it to HDMI1. Make sure the 'Volume Offset' is set to '0'. Leave the menu by pressing 'Return' and switch to Freeview (channel 1 on your remote) . Go back into the Sound menu again. This time the 'Target Input' will show the options of 'Common' or 'Digital TV'. Change to 'Digital TV'.
Or as Faust says it could even be a HDMI issue. Automatic power down means if set to On the box will auto turn off after 3 hours of inactivity. Standby mode Power Save shuts down box in a low power mode. Normal you will have the clock displayed on the unit while in standby. Both options have the same boot up time.
That is why it's very simple to change the hard drive in a Humax PVR. Repassac and I have 2TB drives in our HDR1000S boxes. He was braver than I was and did the upgrade first Reformatting will of course delete all your recordings, this is not the same as a factory reset. Thanks for that, a very clear and easy to understand answer. 2TB hard humax make outstanding very reliable freesat recivers. had mine for years. my only problem that revelation tv's uplink satelite provider disconected the uplink somehow.. it caused a huge ammount of trouble on astra sky and freesat. humax were excellent in dealing with the cure for the problem very promptly and everything fine. The Humax HDR-1000S comes with either a 500GB or 1TB internal hard drive. This is to store all of your recordings and no matter which storage option you choose, there will be plenty of room for a variety of individual programmes, movies and TV series. The price difference between the two capacities are negligible, so opting for the larger If your box displays the clock 24/7 it means you have turned off the default low power standby mode (any reason why ?). It's possible to force a factory reset using a usb stick. Hopefully Barry will post a link to the file required. Similary a freesat re-tune should also request a postcode, can you check that this happens ?
You can reset the remote control to the factory default settings. 1. Direct the remote control to your box. 2. Press the Power and RED buttons at the same time for 5 seconds until the red LED blinks three times. All the settings will be reset. 3. With the default settings, the remote control will operate in IR mode.
Scroll down and select Installation and press ok. After selecting Installation it will ask for a Password. When asked for the Password enter your Humax's PIN number (the default PIN number is 0000). Select Factory Default and press ok. Leave 'Format HDD' unticked (you do NOT want to format the hard drive). Then select Yes and press ok. Do tell for the possible benefit of others. As per the faq's. There's a thread somewhere where the poster had a box with Parental Guidance pin set and the method detailed in the faq's would not reset this. Barry came up with the suggestion to use a Humax reset .hdf which did work. I have a copy of this if any other member comes across the same BCINBvf.
