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.
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
Webif-iphone
A cut-down web interface, optimised for display on the iPhone and other mobile devices
