Humax Software Update Due Today

Receivers, Technical 47 Comments »

According to the Humax website, a software update is due today for all Humax FOXSAT-HD Freesat Digital Boxes. The update should take place automatically around midday, version number 1.00.13.

The software update should resolve the following issues, the lip-sync being the most critical:

- Lip-sync improvements for BBC HD
- Interactive Software improvements
- Display LED fix
- Scart loop-through fix
- i button now removes i-plate after 3rd press

In an unofficial chat we had with Humax, they said that testing has been carried out for quite a while on this new software update, and they are confident that it will resolve the lip-sync issue. Lets hope so, the Olympics 2008 should be a nightmare!

Visit the Humax software update page for more information.

Don’t forget to post your comments once the update is complete, telling us whether the issues have been resolved on your particular box.
