Web-If
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
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 when it is copied to an external disk. 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 Update
This package automatically keeps the installed packages up to date by checking for any new releases daily and automatically downloading and installing them
Cifs (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
Custom TV Portal
An extension to the Humax TV Portal thats add some more apps
Dedup (De-Duplicate)
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.A plugin for the web interface that achieves the same thing is on the todo list
Dropbear SSH
An SSH server for the Humax. This package provides remote command line access over an encrypted session and is an alternative to using telnet to gain command line access although it causes the box to do more work
Inadyn
A Dynamic DNS client with web configuration plugin (see webif settings page
Mediatomb
A free UPnP MediaServer. This package allows streaming of content from the Humax to other devices on your network, once that content has been decrypted
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
Sets the Humax clock from an Internet time server on each boot. Useful if you do not have an aerial connection
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
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
Service Control
A command line utility allowing easy control of installed services. Run the 'service' command from the command line for help.
Tinyftp
An FTP server for the Humax HD (the HDR already has one). Allows remote access to the Humax file system over the FTP protocol. Many FTP clients are available that can be used to access the Humax such as the FireFTP plugin for the FireFox web browser
Transmission (Bit Torrent)
A Bit-Torrent client for the Humax. This has a web interface which runs on port 8080 by default. Allows the Humax to download files from the Internet using the BitTorrent protocol
Virtual-Disk
In order to decrypt content which has been recorded by the Humax, it must be copied 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
Web-If Epg Keywords
This package is a web interface plugin which allows a list of keywords to be configured and will then periodically send an email to a specified email address detailing any programmes in the EPG which match the keywords
