Edit On Box

Background
One item missing from the feature packed FOX HDR T2 and FOX HD T2 is ‘On Box Editing’, Strange as the feature was included in earlier Humax PVRs, However this has now been rectified with the addition of Nicesplice to the Custom Firmware Package
Getting Started
From the Web Interface of the Custom Firmware package, it is possible to install Nicesplice from the Package Management screen, If Nicesplice is installed then the Opt+ button in the webif media browser will show a Crop option.
One problem that had to be overcome with the WebIf version of the Nicesplice is having a efficient way of selecting cut points, This has been elegantly achieved by using the Bookmark feature built into the standard features of the Humax units, So the first step in the editing process is to select a recording with the remote ‘Media’ Button and then play, While playing, press the ‘add book mark’ button on the remote at the place where you want the first ‘keep’ to start
The ‘logic’ of bookmarks is as follows :-
1 bookmark = Keep everything after BM1
2 Bookmarks = Keep content between BM1 and BM2
3 Bookmarks = Keep content between BM1 and BM2 and join to section BM3 to end
4 Bookmarks = Keep content between BM1 and BM2 and join to section BM3 to BM4
This becomes a clearer if you view the Red and Green ‘Blocks’ in the examples
It is possible to correct any mistakes by removing bookmarks with a second enter over the original
To view your edit prior to executing it select the ‘Crop’ option in the WebIf media browser Opt+ button
