When I make a recording off my humax pvr hard drive using the phillips R70 and try to play the dvd I get the message "disc empty" although the disc will play on my pc. Please help

The Humax PVR-9300T tuner acts like a single tuner PVR with some channels. You can't watch one channel while recording another for those channels. This is given in the manual on page 70 (page 71 of the PDF). I found the link in this Humax forum: https://myhumax.org/forum/topic/9300t-download-instruction-manual . The direct link to the manual is currently https://www.avforums.com/attachments/pvr9300t-pdf.519403/ .

I hope this helps.

Make sure you are using the right disk IE, DVD-R or DVD+R. Most Newer DVD player's will play DVD-R but very few play DVD+R

manual should tell you to use either dvd(+)rw or dvd(-)rw typ disks

Hi

This is problem exactly with finalizing for finalizing after disk burning You need to press stop button and finalising menu will appear in your display at that time you need to press Record button top finalize it will take a little time for finalizing then your DVD will play fine in all DVD players

Thanks

YES.

Connect the PVR to the DVD recorder via scart or RCA phono connection.

Select the relevant input on the recorder, press play on the PVR and record on the recorder.

i would say for some reason your dvd player is not compatible from now on with that brand of blank dvd!


get the firmware update from the brand website all you do is download the file burnit on a cd and put it in the dvd player should fix most and eventual problems

I my DVD-HR735 wont recognise any discs at times, and is getting worse. I've now discovered (out of frustration) that if I tip the front up to between 30-45 degrees, it will play all the discs it says were unreadable. I've started jamming three dvd boxes under the front of the machine when i want to play dvds. 

After the update to 1.15 I had to delete EVERY recording on the unit. After that, any new recordings would burn just fine. However, some have found that same failure even after a hard reboot (repower). Called Humax level-1 support and they suggested a replacement unit so I swapped it out. But I've since learned that TiVo "pushes" a DVD firmware patch (possible supplied by Humax) from 1.08 to 1.15 and that patch is the culprit. That patch is suppose to make the DVD burn at a higher spin rate. After talking with level-2 Humax support they heard of the problem and said "the unit is working as designed", meaning, the DVD drive manufacturer specs say the drive is capable of a faster burn rate. So now I have Humax DTR800 #2 and so-far-so-good, but TiVo hasn't pushed the patch onto the box yet!
