Blog2014 ≫ HUMAX hack

Nice, our HUMAX set top box has had some sort of update. Now it prompts you to watch a programme in HD with one click if you turn it on to normal resolution (very handy when we're watching BBC4 as BBC4HD is way down the channel list where you'd never find it). Also Clare has seen some sort of prompt saying "hey get the HUMAX app" so that means there is network control of the box now, which means I can DO STUFF!

There's a new version of our humax box1 with wifi built in, looks good... A lot cheaper on Richer Sounds than it is on amazon though!
