{{Note|There have been two Custom Firmware packages (Custom Portal and Portal Xtra1 detailed below) that have added a new front end to the original Humax TV portal with extra features in addition to the standard ones.

A new Custom Firmware TV package is currently in development that will work with the App. based Humax portal, however this version will only work with Custom Firmware based on the Humax 1.03.06 or later firmware, because this version uses a different browser. Details of this new version will be shown below when they become available}}
