Humax support

[dcoggins]

Anyone know if Humax support are on deck yet? My 7500 failed (this is the second one to fail in just over 12 months - not too promising) and IceTV support are still waiting for a response re warranty issues.

My old Toppy lasted a lot longer, I have dragged it out of retirement and it's still working (sort of).

I have been quite disappointed with Humax - they seem to be unreliable and buggy.

Do Beyonwiz units have similar problems? (Just in case I decide to dump the Humax)

Thanks

No experience with Humax, but I have 3 Beyonwiz units and 2 Toppies. The BWs have been totally reliable for years and the only 'concern' I have with them is that they don't have as nice or intuitive interface as the Toppies. Recording and playing is their forte.
IMO, Beyonwiz mated with IceTV provides the most bulletproof recording solution available.
As with all PVRs, it is important to give the units plenty of air circulation to stop them getting hot.
