Should have looked harder. The usual Humax hidden menu is still available (System Settings / General Info Press Red Green Yellow Blue Green Yellow Blue) but with less options plus enable CRID doesn't 'stick' any more after you enable it. I have enabled it three times now and each time it...

Well yes, there is that of course

http://marantz-uk.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3986/kw/10%20seconds Not exactlty verbose is it? I'd like to know a little more myself. Could this happen again. Are the units at the mercy of an external server functioning correctly? Etc.

Interesting. Same here. Listened to a whole album this morning on the NAS without interuption. Will check again later tonight when I get in. I would really like to know what this is (maybe was) about. Not really happy just to have it 'fixed' without any explanation. I have a feeling it may...

It was Bad day at Fraggle Rock when I received my new black Humax HDR-1100s 1TB the other day . Suddenly I was faced with a really dumb issue trying to connect to my network. I use static IP addressing and MAC filtering and MACs are bound to IPs...even wireless devices. It's a lockdown...

The rear USB is for USB/HHD drives. I have a self powered Toshiba 500Gb plugged into mine (transferred from my old Humax)

The last firmware update for my M-CR610s was June or July I think. Why this 'bomb' should go off on a specific day in August though is curious. And it also makes me wonder what the Marantz's are actually doing; maybe they're attempting to connect to a non existent server...but why? And if it's...

I have more infor about this in this thread: http://www.whathifi.com/forum/hi-fi/3-x-marantz-m-cr610-delevoped-same-fault-in-past-24-hours

I have been speaking to Marantz support (D&M) today as this started happening. Spent far too long trying to diagnose the problem and eventually dismantled my home network to troubleshoot the problem. Eventually I connected only the 3 M-CR610s to an isolated TP-Link switch with the Synology NAS...

At the end of my tether with my M-CR610s. Since purchasing three of them in late 2013 they have worked flawlessly. 24hrs ago this all changed. Got home yesterday and did the same as I do each day, immediately pick up the Marantz remote and press 'Server'. Fine, 'Diskstation' appeared (my...

Have you made a custom housing for the RPi+ HiFiBerry Digi?

Actually agree, Chebby. But this is a completely non Apple house here. Buying the new incarnations of the M-CR610 to fix the issue would be an expensive (and unreasonable) solution. And out of the question for me at least. Lot of money. @Andy I do also feel for others whose hardware has been...

Well yeah, strictly speaking you are of course absolutely correct (re terminology). But in everyday dopey speak (that's what I seem to be speaking nowadays) it seemed to be the right term. That is, I had in mind stuff like coax Y splitters - advertised as such - but I suppose they are really...

Hello. The sub is part of the BA Soundwave SX SE home cinema system Single line in. That's why I mentioned the splitter. Two cables into one...

Would it, do you think, be okay to somehow use the same sub for two systems? Details: Basically, I want to use my active Boston Acoustics sub (which is connected to my home cinema) with my hifi but I don't have room for another subwoofer. My hi-fi all-in-one has sub out and I've already hooked...
