View Full Version : Odd thumbs behavior

On my Humax DRT400 with upgraded hard disk, I've noticed odd Thumbs Up/Down behavior.

When I see program details on NPL, thumbs works normally. However, I can't change thumbs ratings during playback of a show. Pushing the button (either thumbs up or down) on the remote during playback causes the banner to flash on the screen for a split second, then disappear. Going back to program detail on the NPL shows the thumbs sometimes, but not always, register.

Even stranger is that, in a few instances I've thumbs down a program on NPL, but when you hit play it immediately toggles to thumbs up just before it starts playing. Sometimes the thumbs rating on the banner during playback isn't the same as it is on NPL, and takes a minute or two to update.

Anyone else notice these problems with Thumbs?

Yep. Known problem with 7.3.1. I actually consider this more irritating than the speed issue.

Dave, thanks for the tip. Although quite an inconvenient and unexpected loss of functionality, I am hopeful it will be resolved in an upcoming service update in the near future.

Does anyone know if this has been fixed in the 8.1 service update?

I can change the thumbs during playback with 8.1.

If I change the rating in the NPL and then start to play, it doesn't immediately update the rating in the Info overlay. It updates within about 15 seconds, though.
