HUMAX HDCI-2000 thread

[sym]

Hi all
I have had my hummy for a couple of years now and have used all your info with some success - thanx all.
My problem is that the hummy threw a wobbly when I tried to add Thor to my list (currently astra 2, astra 1, sirius, hotbird). Now it won't sync in to any sat !! so I guess the software is corrupt and shall download the new one via rs232 cable (have used it before). My real issue is that when I do this everything is reset. My kit relies on a diseq1.2 motorised modified sky dish that works in London area great. Only problem is that each sat must be manually tweaked once software installed, as rig is obviously home made (not 100% perfect) and it is bolted to a non-vertical drainpipe (yes and it really works ok normally)

. Is there any way I can use the upload I have just taken so that when I subsequently tailor the search channels to find any one satellite and do a re-calculate all sats it would use my previous settings as opposed to the 'standard' ones? It does take me a while to recalibrate each sat for optimal smoke.

FYi I have 'lost' itv hd recently but it was never on a strong channel anyhow.

Lastly there are a number of sites that offer humax downloads for adding key updates for other humax models. Can these humax software versions be used on the 2000 or are they model specific ? I currently use a dragon cam and wondered in this is superfluous were someone to have cracked the embedded linux - any assistance here ?

Thanx all

Hi all
Motorized is setup and working almost perfect.
For hours I try to add a new satellite.
Selecting "Edit Satellite datas" and scrolling through the already stored Sats Im able to modify datas and names only for "Hellas Sat 2" / "Eurobird 1"/ "Eurobird 9" "AtlanticBird 3" /Eutelsat W4".
Trying to rename useless "Par 1R", (wich is outside receiption), or to delete without success.
Any help is very much appreciated.

PAS 1R 45W? we get it here in UK...in fact I get 58W too....but I guess you are further away....I dont think you can delete it or rename it ....only a few user ones you can rename....but if you succeed let us know as i want to get rid of 30E and 11W which cant get anythig on here

Bye

Hi friends ..
I'm trying to ressurrect my old HDCI2000 for use at 39E..
To this end I've scrounged an old Irdeto cam ..
It works fine for SD but not HD
I'm told that reinstalling an early firmware version 11
might help ..but I'm finding it difficult to locate..
Can anyone help ?
I currently have versions 7 - 15 & 16
any other versions uploaded would be appreciated as I can try them all one at a time ..particularly version 11

Hi VS

Here's v.11. Don't know if it's going to help on the 39E HD channels with your Irdeto cam, I'm on v.15 and as far as I can remember it works OK on 39E with my Diablo v.2 cam (need to dust my Humax off to remind myself).

Thanks Llew..
It may be the card I'm using ..
It being of the G type
I'll give v11 a try tho'

Note to anyone who might think the uploaded file contains software to open encrypted channels using a CAM on the Humax - no, it's Humax firmware that allows high SR HD channels to be resolved.

 

[Vipersan]

Thanks for the clarification Llew
'my bad'
I should have made my result clearer.

Was the firmware issue really only restricting channels from 39 East ?

it seems to be an issue with channels with a high symbol rate of 30000 .
