About this deal

Select a programme and press the YELLOW button to trim the recorded programme. You can trim the recorded programme using the following functions. Note: You can trim recorded TV (Video) channels only. Tesco Mobile is to start charging new and recently joining pay-monthly customers to use their mobiles in Europe from 2024. Beauty Advent calendars are significantly pricier than chocolate ones, but they've become increasingly popular in the last few years as a way of bagging beauty products at a fraction of the normal cost. They often sell out early, but can also be heavily discounted later if they don't, so here's a round-up of some of the best I’ve seen. Save You can save the selected recording part as a different file. Select the starting point using the t/u button and press the RECORD button. Select the ending point using the t/u button and press the RECORD button. Select Save and press the OK button to save the selected part. Select Reset and press the OK button to reset the edit. Warning: This function will overwrite the original recording.

Of course, selecting programmes from the guide depends on the Freeview guide being correct, which it generally is. You can widen the recording window to allow for minor scheduling errors, as well as trim recordings down to cut out unnecessary extras you didn’t want. A minor point is the Series Link feature. You can only have this if you also have Accurate Recording switched on. If you decide to use Auto padding (ie start recording a few minutes early and continue past the end) then Series Link is turned off. If you're a regular Superdrug shopper, you can now earn more freebies and discounts under its Health & Beautycard loyalty scheme, as the retailer has launched new 'VIP Rewards' as part of it. Also hidden is the little button that skips forward however many seconds you prefer. ie the one you use to bypass the ad breaks. Again a button so rarely used it is OK to hide it away....As part of the upgrade, the electronic programme guide (EPG) will now load in seconds rather than minutes. Does the Humax store its upcoming shows in flash memory, which is being lost when the power is turned off, or does it store them on the hard drive? The hard drive is a relatively modest 160GB, equating to around 100 hours of standard-def TV. Go easy on the season linking because this PVR will fill up fast. My experience of Accurate Recording is that it is anything but. I doubt all the blame is Humax and a large percentage is the broadcasters. But nearly every recording I made with it turned on was late starting and often cut off before the end as well. So I never use it. But I now can't use Series Link either. Naturally, you can view your recordings on time delay, perhaps to skip over the ads or finish the washing up. Unusually, the PVR-9150T sports an ad-skip button that jumps forward in your recordings at the touch of a button. The leap is adjustable between 15, 30, 60 or 120 seconds. There's also a bookmarking feature, enabling you to rejoin a recording you failed to finish in a previous sitting. You can also PiP a second source, to keep an eye on a channel you're waiting to view.

Select a programme and press the GREEN button. To unselect the selected programmes, press the GREEN button again. Auto-tuning works well and had no problem finding all the available channels and radio stations. The 8-day programme guide is core to the functioning of the PVR and is populated with information being broadcast, although it seems to go through this process each time it starts, so you don’t have instant access to the full EPG, which can be a pain and slow you down if you want to set-up a recording as you fly out of the door. The twin tuners mean that you can record different programmes at the same time and overlapping programmes don’t present a problem – it just works. A popular boast of Sky users, you can also opt to series programmes as well as record broken programmes, i.e., those that have the news in the middle. Icons identify programmes on which these, and other, options are available and when setting a recording you are given the choice to series link if you can. The main frustrations for me are the incredibly slow EPG. It takes ages to populate. I had a TVonics PVR previously and that cached the EPG while turned off which the 9150 doesn't. Therefore the EPG on the TVonics was there straight away. Even my TV manages to remember the EPG when I turn it off and has it instantly visible when I need it.

Connectivity and installation

If you use the Freeview+ 8-day option on the TUTV PVRs then this is the same as that used by the Humax so will have the same characteristics. However, the TUTV PVRs do take much longer to populate the EPG than they should, up to 7 hours or more in my experience.`But then that is just one of many issues with the TUTV software. As you say if you use the 14-day EPG option on the TUTV PVRs then this should not apply, you either get all or nothing. Humax is very aware that, for several months, some customers have been experiencing a slowdown in operation and usability issues with our PVR models.

The other irritation is the layout of the remote. It has a sliding flap covering several minor controls. Amongst which is the one to call up the recorded programme list. Of course you are rarely going to need that and would much prefer the five button press method involved using the fully visible controls! Resolving these issues has been a priority for our technical team who have been working diligently on a fix, but unfortunately, due to the complex nature of the issues, it has taken much longer than we had hoped to develop new software to sort out the PVR issues. Software updates for the PVR-9150T are subject to testing by the Digital Television Group (DTG), which is taklng place on June 11. Humax will give details of the release date for the PVR-9150T fix in due course. In any way can't Lastmanuals be held responsible if the document you are looking for is not available, incomplete, in a different language than yours, or if the model or language do not match the description. Lastmanuals, for instance, does not offer a translation service. The increasing complexity of the UK's broadcast infrastructure and requirement to process a substantially higher volume of information has put the PVRs under pressure and significant performance issues became particularly apparent through the digital switchover.There are three varieties of what people call the skipping problem. Doing a "Humax" format will help with one of them. If you've got a Marcus easy-access savings account or cash ISA, you can easily boost your interest rate to 4.75% – here's how.

We will not accept to exchange or fix a product if the damage was caused directly or indirectly by you. After selecting reserved programmes using the GREEN button, press the RED button. Select Yes and press the OK button to delete the recorded programmes. Note: · If the protect option of the programme is set to Enable, you cannot delete the programme. Please refer to 7. 1. 4 Changing the Attribute. · You can delete multi programmes except for the protected programmes. · When Deleting Recordings please ensure that only the recording(s) that you wish to Delete are selected. Unselect any Recordings by pressing the GREEN button. Under the hood, essentially, you’ll find twin Freeview tuners and 160GB of hard disk drive and this is where the real contest is fought. It is not the biggest of drives, but for those looking to record on an ad hoc basis this is more than adequate, giving you about 100 hours of television recording.Superdrug adds new 'VIP Rewards' offers to its existing loyalty scheme – here's what you need to know I'm suspecting an internal battery may have gone as this seems to fit the behaviour, but I'm surprised upcoming programs would be stored in memory and not on the drive? If I find a way to connect it up to a PC and do a full format (I only have a 'family' laptop myself and don't want to start messing with that), is there any particular type of format that's required?
