My existing My Passport 250 GB hard drive was recognized immediately.
Recordings work fine from the standby mode. Even Timeshift is possible, which is called in this Humax namely shifted recording and automatically saves around 30 minutes. the current program, if desired also from the manufacturer.
During a running recording it is not possible to move or delete the channel list can not be edited existing recordings.
Watched and paused to take a picture, comes a digital clock that serves as a screen saver, thus probably also not burn into the screen.
Stations which are broadcast on the same transponder as the male can also be viewed. Stations which can not be switched are grayed out in the station list, so you can see in whatever station you could switch.
There is a TV channel list with 99 presets and a radio channel list with also 99 memory locations, and other nameable Favorites lists.
A sleep timer is also available.
New stations are found automatically and you will be asked if you want to add these to the TV channel list 1-99. (In my case, was found Sat.1 Gold).
Conclusion: I am very satisfied with the Humax I have HD + card sold again,
have paid ultimately for Receiver + 2 additional purchased cable (HDMI + Optical) only 75,00 - a good price for a good receiver.
