'''BREIF NOTES FOR CUSTOM FIRMWARE PACKAGES'''
{{Note|Some Functions of the Web Interface are 'Built-In' and do not require an additional package to be installed, These Features are covered in the Web If section of this page

Some packages require a reboot (Hard disk spin down) before they take effect}}

==7Zip==

Command line utility that can pack and un-pack zip type files

*Supported Packing / unpacking Formats = 7z, XZ, BZIP2, GZIP, TAR, ZIP and WIM
*Supported Unpacking only = ARJ, CAB, CHM, CPIO, CramFS, DEB, DMG, FAT, HFS, ISO, LZH, LZMA, MBR, MSI, NSIS, NTFS, RAR, RPM, SquashFS, UDF, VHD, WIM, XAR and Z.

==Auto-Unprotect==

The Auto Unprotect package runs in the background and automatically removes the Encryption Protected flag on High Definition recordings. This is the flag which prevents the file from being decrypted in the same way a Standard Definition file. On first installation, the hard disk will be scanned for any high definition recordings and they will be unprotected. Thereafter new recordings will have the flag removed as they are completed

Auto Unprotect also makes a change to the DLNA index so that High Definition files can be streamed without DTCP

NOTE:- The removal of the ENC flag does not decrypt the file, However it does make decyption possible by the same means as a Standard Definition file, see flow chart [[Encryption |'''HERE''']]

==Auto-Update==

This package automatically keeps the installed packages up to date by checking for any new releases daily and automatically downloading and installing them, It will check once per day at the earliest power on, for most people probably the 04:30 boot

==Bash==

Bourne Again SHell is an enhanced [[Custom_Firmware_Package_Notes#Sh | '''Sh (Shell)''']] Command line / scripting language [http://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/bashref.html '''See Reference Guide''']

==Betaftpd==

===For HDR-Fox T2===

The HDR-FOX T2 has a built-in FTP server, This default server will still be in available after the Custom Firmware is installed, However only files under ‘Media’ are visible, Betaftpd has two possible Logins, If login = humaxftp and password = 0000 is used then only ‘Media’ is visible. If login = root and password = 0000 is used then the entire file system is accessable. If the remote password has been changed from 0000 then the new password must be used

NOTE:- The Built-in FTP server must be turned off if Betaftpd is used with Menu >> Settings >> System >> Internet Settings >> FTP Server = OFF

===For HD-Fox T2===

Betaftpd will add an FTP server to the Humax after installation, Betaftpd has two possible Logins, If login = humaxftp and password = 0000 is used then only ‘Media’ is visible. If login = root and password = 0000 is used then the entire file system is accessable. If the remote password has been changed from 0000 then the new password must be used

==BootHDR==

This Function for the HD-FOX T2 only, Allows the HD-FOX T2 to run the software for the HDR-FOX T2, to allow decryption of recordings by copying to a volume, BootHDR can be installed from the Web-If packages screen (of the HD-Fox T2 only). Here is the equivalent command line (Telnet) :-

 opkg install wget 

 opkg install boothdr --force-reinstall 

==Bsed==

Binary-safe search/replace utility.

==BusyBox==

Your Humax box has a ‘Unix’ operating system, Busybox is a package that provides 158 common Unix [[Custom_Firmware_Package_Notes#Sh_.28SHell.29 | '''Sh (Shell)''']] commands that can be used in a Telnet sessions, The List below shows the available commands, There is no 'man' command that would explain what they do, but most commands can have a -? or -h extention to get some help e.g. ls -?, A command look up table can be found [http://busybox.net/downloads/BusyBox.html '''HERE''']

NOTE:- It is not a good idea to 'Play' with these commands if you don't know what you are doing

==CIFS==

The Common Internet File System. The cifs package provides the Humax with the ability to remotely access files shared from PCs using Windows file sharing. This package adds the support to the running system but mounting remote filesystems must currently be performed from the command line, Example :-

 mkdir /media/NAS 

 mkdir "/media/My Video/NAS" 

 mount -t cifs //server/share /media/NAS -o user=abc,password=def 

 mount -t cifs "//server/share /media/My Video/NAS" -o user=abc,password=def 

==Cron==

Cron is a time-based job scheduler that will auto-run tasks for you, It is built into Busybox which is a standard utility on your Humax, so cron does not need to be installed, the tasks are held in a cron table or crontab, here is an example crontab :-

<pre>
humax# cd /mod/var/spool/cron/crontabs/
humax# cat root
0 2 * * * /mod/sbin/anacron -s -d
1,31 * * * * /mod/sbin/unencrypt "/mnt/hd2/My Video/archive" > /mod/tmp/unencrypt.log 2>&1
*/10 * * * * /mod/sbin/rs_process >> /mod/tmp/rs.log 2>&1
humax#

</pre>

Each line of crontab has the following structure:

<Minute> <Hour> <Day> <Month> <Day of Week> <Command line> Note :- * = All or Every

The three examples above will run
#at 2AM every day
#at 1 Minute and 31 Minutes of every Hour every day
#every 10 Minutes continuously

It is possible to display all cron jobs with the following command line:-

 crontab -l 

To add a new cron job edit file /mod/var/spool/cron/crontabs/root and add a new line

==Curl Command==

curl command line utility

==Custom TV Portal==

An extension to the Humax TV Portal thats add some more apps

Full Guide[[Custom_TV_Portal | '''HERE''']]

==Dedup (Command Line)==

The dedup package adds a command line utility which can consolidate recordings within a single folder so that duplicates are removed and the remaining episodes are renamed so that the episode name and number (if available) are displayed in the Media Browser

Note:- There is a 'built-in' version of Dedup in the [[Custom_Firmware_Package_Notes#Web_IF | '''Web-If ''']] that effectivly replaces the command line package, However if the dedup package is installed it is possible to perform the following Telnet commands from the folder you have navigated to:-

 dedup HIDE lists the recordings there and shows what they would be renamed to

 dedup -yes HIDE perform the changes as detailed below :-

*Renames the files on disk to match the episode name
*Changes the title shown in the media list to match the episode name
*Identifies duplicate episodes and moves them to a sub-folder called dup/

==Disable DSO==

Disable automatic retuning in response to Digital-Switch-Over events

==Disable OTA==

This feature inhibits any Over The Air Software updates that may be transmitted by Humax

==Dropbear SSH==

A secure shell (ssh) server for the Humax. This package provides remote command line access over an encrypted session and is a secure alternative to using telnet
to gain command line access - although it causes the box to do more work. Also allows the use of ''scp'' (secure copy) as a secure alternative to FTP.

Login with username=root, password=humax

==Dvbsnoop==

Utility for inspecting DVB files. Some more info. [http://dvbsnoop.sourceforge.net/ '''HERE''']

==E2fs_Progs==

Ext2/3/4 Filesystem Utilities. The Linux File Disk system used on the Humax. Useful for formatting a USB Flash drive in EXT2 to avoid journaling, here is the procedure :-

*First, make sure the USB drive has a single partition on it and is formatted as FAT32;
*Install the Customised Firmware;
*Connect the USB Flash Drive;
*Gain access to the command prompt on the Humax (via telnet);
*Install the e2fsprogs package;

/sbin/modinit
opkg update
opkg install e2fsprogs

Copy the formatting utility off the flash drive;

cp /mod/sbin/mkfs.ext2 /tmp

Determine the device name and mount point for the flash drive:

cd /mod
df -h .

The device name is the first column in the output of the df command, something like /dev/sda1;The mount point it the last column, something like /media/drive1 Unmount the flash drive (replace the mount point with that determined above):

cd /
umount /media/drive1

Format the drive (replace the device number with that determined above):

/tmp/mkfs.ext2 /dev/sda1

Change the partition type of the new drive. Note that the last part of the command is the root name of the device determined above,so for /dev/sda1 omit the trailing 1 in the following command:

echo t83 | fdisk /dev/sda

Now remove and re-insert the USB disk and reinitialise the package repository

/sbin/modinit
opkg update

==Edit On Box (Nicesplice)==

Full Guide for Nicesplice [[Edit_On_Box | '''HERE''']]

==EPG (Command Line)==

==Epg Keywords (Web-If)==

This package was a web interface plugin which allowed a list of keywords to be configured and when found an email was sent Weekly to a specified email address detailing any programmes in the EPG which matched the keywords

NOTE:- The EPG Keywords functionallity has now been moved to [[Remote_Scheduling_Auto | '''Remote Scheduling Auto''']]

Initial Setup :-
*Web-If MAIN >> SETTINGS >> Email address >> myname@talktalk.co.uk
*Web-If MAIN >> SETTINGS >> SMTP >> smtp.talktalk.co.uk
*Web-If MAIN >> SETTINGS >> SEND TEST EMAIL

==Enable Telnet==

Enable Telnet will install a telnet package onto a HDR unit. This package is only available for USB installation (It is not available via the Web-If)

==Ffmpeg==

FFmpeg will record, convert and stream audio and video, It includes libavcodec - the leading audio/video codec library, It also displays information about video and audio files. See Link [http://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg.html '''HERE''']

==Fix-disk==

Disk partition repair script for the internal disk of the HDR-Fox-T2 only, this script will only run in maintenance mode, with or without any of the hard disk partitions mounted (i.e. it is not dependent upon the /mod director

This script should be run twice. The first time switches the box to maintenance mode. After a reboot into maintenance mode a repeated run of this script will perform the file system checks. After the checks have completed a further reboot will return to normal mode.

==Fix-disk (USB)==

If the internal hard disk drive is damaged and it is not possible to install fix-disk using the Web-If Package Management utility, there is a version on fix disk that can be installed to flash via a USB flash drive. To install, copy onto a USB disk then enter the following via a telnet connection:

 cd /var/lib/humaxtv/mod 

 untar /media/drive1/fix-disk_0.1.tar 

To enter maintenance mode (take note of the displayed warning messages):

 ./fix-disk 

After the box has rebooted, telnet in and run fix-disk again:

 /var/lib/humaxtv/mod/fix-disk 

After a long series of checks, you should see 'Finished - type reboot to return to normal operation'.

==Flatten==

This feature changes how recorded programs are displayed on screen in the 'Media - My Video' menu, Series of programs are normally grouped into a sub-folder, Flatten will move the contents of sub-folders to the main 'Top' folder and remove empty sub-folders, After installing flatten the Web-If will have an option under OPT+ which lets you toggle directories between flatten and no-flatten

'''NOTE''' :- All directories will default to have flatten turned on unless they are changed

'''Exceptions'''

* Folders marked as no flatten using the OPT+ option will not be flattened
* Folders whose names are bounded by square brackets e.g. [NOT THIS ONE] will not be flattened
* Folders containing a file called .noflatten will not be flattened (Note:- Create this file Via Telnet)

==Flexget==

FlexGet is a multipurpose automation tool for content like torrents, nzbs, podcasts, comics, series, movies, etc.It can use different kinds of sources like RSS-feeds, html pages, csv files,search engines and there are even plugins for sites that do not provide any kind of useful feeds.

A Typical Cron entry for Flexget would be :-

 */1 * * * * /mod/bin/flexget -c /mod/.flexget/config.yml --cron 

* Flexget Documentation [http://flexget.com '''HERE''']

==Forcedate==

This utility forces the date on your Humax to 16 November 2011 12:34:56. It is require if the Humax can't get Time / Date info Over The Air. After using Forcedate it is possible to set time / date to internet time automatically on boot-up using [[Custom_Firmware_Package_Notes#Ntp_Client | '''NTP Client''']]

==Foscam==

See Guide [[Custom_TV_Portal#Portal_Foscam | '''HERE''']]

==FTP==

File Transfer Protocol is a method of transferring files to and from your Humax, The Humax HDR-Fox T2 has a built-in FTP for access to the media folders only. See the [[Custom_Firmware_Package_Notes#Betaftpd |'''Betaftpd package''' ]] for access to the full Humax file structure or to add an FTP server to the HD-Fox T2. To use FTP on a P.C. a program that handles FTP is required, Internet Explorer and Windows (file) Explorer will allow FTP access by entering ftp://10.0.0.200 into the address bar, Although access may be restricted to media folders only, even when using the Betaftpd package, If access to the whole file structure is required programs like Filezilla or WS_FTP_Pro can be used.

Notes :-
* To use the Built-In Humax FTP server MENU >> Settings >> System >> Internet Settings >> FTP Server = ON
* When using Betaftpd MENU >> Settings >> System >> Internet Settings >> FTP Server = OFF
*10.0.0.200 needs to be replaced with your own Humax IP address
*login = humaxftp
*password = 0000 (your Remote Pin default). If the remote password has been changed from 0000 then the new password must be used

==Grep==

Grep is built into Busybox and is used to search through a file or files looking for specified blocks of text, The output can be displayed on-screen or sent to a new file. [http://unixhelp.ed.ac.uk/CGI/man-cgi?egrep Syntax Here]

==Jim==

Jim is a form of the programming language TCL (Tool Command Language), That runs on the Humax unix platform

==Jpnevulator==

Serial Port Sniffer

==Joe==

Text Editor, See [[Custom_Firmware_Package_Notes#Text_Editors | '''Text Editors''']]

==LibParted==

libparted

==Mediatomb==
A UPnP MediaServer, This package allows the HD T2 to stream content to other devices on your network, as the HD T2 does not have this facility built-in

==Mongoose==

Mongoose is the Webserver that the Custom Firmware Package uses to present the Web pages you see when you log into the Web Interface, [[Web_Interface_Screenshots | '''SEE EXAMPLES''']]

==Multienv==

Helper utility for modifying the settop environment, Used by other packages.

==Mvdisks==

Mounts external drives (connected via USB) under "My Video" to allow export by the DLNA server (HDR only)

==Network Shares Automount==

Automatic mounting of remote nfs or smb directories, with configuration on the box, using special "settings" directorys to add and configure shares. Remote host(s) are "pinged" regularly, and shares are mounting / unmounting automatically with host availability

Folders on a computer or NAS box can be shared with other devices on the same network. On the humax box with custom firmware we can add support for two protocols - smb (used by Windows, pre-Lion OsX, linux running Samba), and nfs (Linux, OsX, common with NAS boxes). smb support is provided by the cifs package. We can "mount" the remote shared folder(s) so they appear as if they were part of the local file system on the Humax

This packages uses directory names in the "*Modsettings/smb" and/or "*Modsettings/nfs" folders to configure as many shares as you like. For example to set up a new smb share, use the opt+ button to create a new directory within the smb folder. Name it what you want the mount to be called (eg "MyPc") Wait about 10 seconds, and navigate into the new folder. The script should have created a load of template "configuration directories" for you to rename (host IP address, foldername, user, password etc). Note that the "_" symbol is used instead of "." in IP names and "/" in folder names as these can't be input (or if they can I think the box changes them to a "_")

Once configured, the script will regularly ping the host computer to see if it is available. If it is then the shared folder will be mounted and should be browsable. If the host goes offline, the folder will be unmounted, preventing the box from locking up.

Wake up On LAN (WOL) is also available to automatically power up compatible (newer) NAS boxes, The user must supply the MAC address of the NAS box and set WakeUp=on

==Nano==

Text Editor, See [[Custom_Firmware_Package_Notes#Text_Editors | '''Text Editors''']]

==NTFS 3g==

Read/write NTFS disk access. Out of the box the Humax can read NTFS formatted drives but this package upgrades that support to full read/write access

==Ntp Client==

Network Time Protocol sets the Humax clock from an Internet time server on each boot. Useful if you do not have an aerial connection. Note :- This utility may also need [[Custom_Firmware_Package_Notes#Forcedate | '''Forcedate''']] to be loaded, In order to get the date near the current as NTP won't change a time / Date that is too far out. More notes [http://doolittle.icarus.com/ntpclient/ '''HERE''']

 HIDE ** = Change from Humax default

==Renumber==
[[File:renumber.png|200px|thumb|right]]
Channel re-numbering support, for each channel that you wish to change, enter a new number into the box and save changes. Next time you reboot your Humax, the channel numbers will change around. If you ever rescan the channels on your box then the next time you reboot they will be automatically changed to match your saved preference. Once installed, a new option will be shown in the Web Interface Settings screen, probably near the bottom.

Renumbering channels is useful for people who want to swap the high-definitions services with their standard-definition counterparts, e.g. swap BBC ONE for BBC ONE HD putting BBC ONE HD on channel 1, and can also be used to re-order channels (e.g. move BBC HD to channel 8) to be closer to the start of the EPG. Of course another way to achieve this is to use the standard favourites feature in the Humax software to define your own list of channels and order them to suit.

==Reset Webif==

Reset Webif will clear out all of the custom firmware packages and files without affecting your recordings or scheduled recordings. It is designed to be execuable by booting from a Flash USB device loaded with the Reset Webif utility and is useful when the 'Web-If >> Diagnostics >> Remove All Custom Firmware packages and settings' is not available, Wait for the light to stop flashing then remove the disk and reboot the Humax (using the remote control). If you point a web browser at the Humax then you'll be back at the initial installation interface.

==Remote Scheduling (RS)==

Remote Scheduling Service. Links your device to the remote scheduling portal so you can manage your scheduled recordings list from anywhere with an Internet connection and web browser

Full Guide[[Remote_Scheduling | '''HERE''']]

==Remote Scheduling Auto==

==Rsvsync==

Boot-time reservation sync service

==Rsync==

A fast, versatile, remote (and local) file-copying tool, example :-

 rsync -avr --progress --delete --exclude 'Tsr/' mnt/hd2/ root@synology ip::NetBackup 

==Samba==

Windows compatible file sharing. Allows access to the Humax filesystem from a computer on the same network. The file system is shared using Windows compatible sharing so can be access from Windows, MacOSX and most other operating systems

==Sed==

GNU Stream Editor, A stream editor is used to perform basic text transformations on an input stream, application notes [http://www.gnu.org/software/sed/manual/sed.html '''HERE'''] or [http://www.grymoire.com/Unix/Sed.html#uh-0 '''HERE''']

==Series Filer==

This utility will re-locate series folders created at the top level of My Video to Selected Sub-Directories so that they can be grouped together. After a New series folder has been created by the Humax at the top level, Simply move this series folder to a Sub-directory that you have created e.g. move the Doctor Who series folder to a sub-folder called ‘His Video’. When the next instalment of Doctor Who is transmitted the Humax will create another Doctor Who folder at the top level again, However, If Series Files is running the new instalment will be moved to the ‘His Video / Doctor Who’ automatically. Program names will also be re-named (if possible) to give more detail of each episode

'''NOTE:-'''

The current version of Series Filer ver. 2.1a is not compatable with the Undelete package because the [deleted] directory is not handled correctly. Please DO-NOT run Series Filer ver. 2.1a with any version of the Undlete package

==Service Control==

A command line utility allowing easy control of installed services. Run the 'service' command from the command line for help.

==Text Editors==

There is a built-in GUI Text editor in the Web-If (details [[Custom_Firmware_Package_Notes#File Editor |'''HERE''']]). In addition to this editor, There is a basic version of [[Custom_Firmware_Package_Notes#Vi |'''Vi''']] built into the custom [[Custom_Firmware_Package_Notes#BusyBox |'''Busybox''']] package (not in the Busybox version included in the vendor's firmware). There are also several packages that can be installed to suit your editing preferences e.g. [[Custom_Firmware_Package_Notes#Vim_Basic |'''Vim Basic''']], [[Custom_Firmware_Package_Notes#Vim_Standard | '''Vim Standard''']], [[Custom_Firmware_Package_Notes#Joe | '''Joe''']] and [[Custom_Firmware_Package_Notes#Nano | '''Nano''']].

If you've only installed the basic custom firmware (using the upgrade path with USB), then there's
[[Custom_Firmware_Package_Notes#Sed | '''sed''']]

==Transmission (Bit Torrent)==

The Transmission program will download files from the internet using the a torrent protocol, Downloads using this system are usually fed from multiple sites at the same time in parallel, Because of this many URL’s may be used in the download process, These URLs are packaged together into a single *.torrent file, Transmission re-constructs fragments of the file/s from these various URLs into their original format.

Transmission needs to be supplied with the *.Torrent file, it does not have a Torrent file search facility, one possible torrent source is torrentz.eu, download your selected *.Torrent file to the P.C. you run the Web-iF from

For command line access enter :-

 transmission-remote 

'''Blocklist Notes'''

The block list utility does not currently work as it should e.g. Settings (Bottom Left) >> preferences >> Peers should allow an IP to be entered and then 'Updated', This should read a txt, gz, zip file to opened from a remote site that holds details of URLs that transmission is not allowed to contact during the download process. This can increase security by avoiding know virus sites etc.

Because the ‘Update’ does not work it is necessary to obtain the block file (e.g. from http://www.iblocklist.com/lists.php) and place them in the /mod/etc/transmission/blocklists folder, these files must be smaller than 5Mbs, They will be processed by the Transmission program when first run and *.bin files will be created in the same folder, if the files are successfully processed an indication of the number of ‘Blocked’ URL will be displayed e.g. Block List Has 598940 Rules

*Go into service control and start Transmission
*Set it to auto start if you want it to come on whenever the box is on
*Go to the Web-If main menu and click the transmission icon at the bottom left
*Select 'Open' (the folder at the top left)
*Select browse in the window and highlight the prviously downloaded *.torrent file
*When highlighted select 'Open'
*Select 'Upload'
*If the 'Start when added' box is checked the download will start immediately
* A new directory will be created at /media/ My Video/torrent/ containing successful downloads

==trm==

trm is a version of the Unix rm command (ReMove), This version removes files in blocks using Truncate (hence Truncate ReMove) rather than all at once, In order to reduce demand on system resources

==TTYSnoop==

TTYSnoop allows you to snoop on login tty's through another tty-device or pseudo-tty. The snoop-tty becomes a 'clone' of the original tty, redirecting both input and output from/to it.

==Uinput==

User-space input kernel module

==Unencrypt==

This function will unencrypt all files in a designated directory (or all files in My Video) automatically, Files are de-crypted at the same location e.g. 'decrypt in place' and are processed at the rate of one file every 30 Mins. max. so don't expect instant results

To setup Unencrypt install the package and then via [[Custom_Firmware_Package_Notes#Telnet|'''Telnet''']] enter one of the lines below :-

 unencryptsetup "Bob's Videos" HIDE process a single directory

 unencryptsetup HIDE process all files in 'My Video'

 unencryptsetup disable HIDE Turn off unencrypt

This will update the cron table and schedule the program to run every 30 minutes (at Mins 01 and 31) indefinitely. Every time it runs, it will check that there isn't already another job running and then decrypt the first encrypted file that it finds in the directory you specified, therefore gradually working its way through your files, If you don't specify a directory, it will default to decrypting all of your recordings.

NOTES:-
* '''Due to CPU overloading this feature only works between 1AM and 6AM the Humax must be out of standby during this time using an Auto On / Auto off timer''' 

*Auto-Unprotect must be running
*Content sharing must = on e.g. Menu >> Settings >> System >> Internet Settings

See Decryption flow chart [[Encryption | '''HERE''']]

==Undelete==

Redirects deleted recordings to a dustbin folder called [Deleted Items] and then automatically removes them from this new folder 7 days later, The Folder Name and delay before deletion is carried out (1 to 30 days) is configurable in the Web-If Setting area. It's a batch process which runs once per day. It runs 6 minutes after the first boot of the day or, if you keep your box on all the time, at 2am.
It scans the bin and removes anything that was put there over x * 24 hours ago, Where x = no. of days (strictly, anything that was last modified over x * 24 hours ago)

==Vi==

Text Editor, See [[Custom_Firmware_Package_Notes#Text_Editors | '''Text Editors''']]. A basic version of Vi is built into the custom [[Custom_Firmware_Package_Notes#BusyBox |'''Busybox''']] package (it's not included in the version of Busybox in the vendor's firmware).

==Vim Basic==

Text Editor, See [[Custom_Firmware_Package_Notes#Text_Editors | '''Text Editors''']]

==Vim Standard==

Text Editor, See [[Custom_Firmware_Package_Notes#Text_Editors | '''Text Editors''']]

==Virtual-Disk==

One way to decrypt content which has been recorded by the Humax is to copy to an external disk, This is usually a slow process as the
external disk must be connected via one of the USB ports. This package creates a virtual disk on the system to which content can
be copied. It is much faster since it is based on the internal hard disk. The virtual disk is shared by the MediaTomb package by default, giving a
fairly straightforward method of sharing recorded content on the network. In conjunction with the 'auto-unprotect' package, high definition content can also be shared

Note:- The copy to Virtual Disk MUST be by Remote Control OPT+ copy for decryption to take place

==Web IF ==

[[Web_Interface_Screenshots |'''Screen Shots''']] HIDE [[Webif_release_notes |'''Release Notes''']]

An evolving web interface for the Humax. This package provides a means of accessing the Humax using a web browser on any device connected to the
network (including mobile 'phones and iPads). The interface allows easy viewing of recorded programme details as well as allowing basic
manipulation to be performed. Additionally the EPG can be viewed and searched from within the web browser
