Note Note: This page has been updated to detail the instructions for the Customised Firmware version 1.14 and above - that firmware will be released in the next few days.

If it is not practical to connect your Humax box to the Internet via a cable or wireless, then software packages can be loaded onto the Humax by placing them onto a USB Disk. The packages themselves can be downloaded from http://hummypkg.org.uk/packages.html. Each package is available for download as an individual file or as a bundle. A bundle contains the package itself along with all of its dependencies, and is the recommended way to install software.
