Finally, I'm back with some new information and the first thing to point out is that the problem doesn't originate with my TV. How do I know, because I have all of these all of my other things plugged into my HDMI ports and never once as ratio on the screen then wrong. The next thing that I tried wa...

The Old Man

One more observation is that the EPG can be shown in either SD or HD. The SD version is so small it's very difficult to read. I have seen the EPG display in SD and when I press a button, I get the notified of a problem followed immediately by the Spikey wheel for a few seconds. Once it has refreshed...

The Old Man

My previous post mentions that it's been turned off.

The Old Man

The TV is TCL model 70P10 US. Dispite the fact that this set is almost 7 years old people have remarked how clear the picture was. It's 4K. It has 4 HDMI in connections. I have both an Amazon Firestick 4K pro in one port and a Samsung DVD player and these have never switched to 4X3. Overscan is off....

The Old Man

Here are 2 shots of the EPG showing both 4x3 and 16x9. They were taken on my phone because I still can't get OpenWebIf to open I have tried every address suggested even entering the final set of digets as 1,2 etc.

The Old Man

A development. I noticed the other day that the remote for TV has quite a few buttons pressed way down as if someone had been sat on it. Maybe even the great,great grand kids who have been seen to be playing with all of my remotes. After a lot of difficulty I managed to pry up at part of the edge bu...

The Old Man

I thought that it might be the TV and I did some shecking starting I using different HDMI cabels. This gave me the same results. The TV has a setting to automatically select the output ratio or choose the one you want,mine is set to 16.9 but it seems to change by itself. My TV has 4 HDMI out ports. ...

When I input the number I get first message not secure,the next thing I see no HTTPS,then I select continue to site,finally let message is unreachable.

I can open OpenWebif easily on my PC & or my V2 itself. But if I try to open if on my laptop, tablet or phone I can never connect. If I go and try typing in the exact same number 192. etc it won't connect and it appears to be some sort of security issue. Coul it be that the web address is lookin...

The Old Man

I have finding that my TV is starting to display the wrong video ratio which should always be 16x9 except for older programs which are usually 4x3 with empty space in both sides. I have seen the picture display this way ever when viewing the EPG or timer list. There are settings on TV which I change...

The Old Man

Each morning I go to my timer listing and delete all completed recordings. Then I go to the EPG to see it there is anything interestring new to record. The EPG is always incomplete and a refresh get you all of the avaiable details. Your lucky if you see 5 days ahead. But if I then click on any ABC c...

The Old Man

Thanks, I now have it all working this means on my PC,Laptop,Tablet and Phone.

The Old Man

I tried to use the movie cutter and all I got is nonsense see photo,

Where did all of these crazy figures come from?

The Old Man

I have tried opening OpenWebIf on my tablet and it always works.

If I add the exact same address onto my phone it fails as well as PC and just last month a new laptop.

Why should this happen?

The Old Man

You are correct about it being Stats for Nerds. Not unexpectidly it doesn't want to delete easily.

The Old Man

Sorry my mistake I was using my tablet for once. Here is photo

The Old Man

I was casting some YouTube to my TV and this box popped up on the screen I can turn the TV on and off etc but every time I do I'm getting it coming back again and it looks similar to other TV data would be seen on my V2 when you press info or menu button. My V2 plays through HDMI 1 and that's what i...

The Old Man

Hey that's terrific it's finally got it working the way I wanted thank you so much for all your effort.

The Old Man

I went to MENU->Setup->TV->Channel selection->Always show bouquets Set to "off" and did this but still didn't work. There must be something else that I'm missing. As for the EGP layout from my screen you can see I'm not using a preview window and that there is plenty of space on left hand ...

The Old Man

The EPG is divided into 2 large areas.

The Left hand side is only for channel names and numbers I'm finding that my left hand side is only about 40% or less filled with my channel choice of favourites. If this could be made larger the right hand side would not look so crowded.

The Old Man

I fully got my list of EPG stations all sorted inasmuch as I have the correct stations chosen and in the correct order. I still can't the EGP to give me my list of favourites and I have to choose one out of 3 everything. I did have this working long ago so I know that it's possible. While I think of...

The Old Man

Just when I thought that my V2 was back to normal behaviour I see this on Cutlist editor.

I have no idea how this happened.

The Old Man

It appears that I said that everything was fine again but this isn't so. It seems that most of the other settings have gone walkabout. OpenWebIf or the V2 itself has lost all of my preferences including layout, EPG choices and boutiques etc. So I will have to start all over again.

The Old Man

Thanks for the summation of what happened, it's good to know.

The Old Man

Some magic happened. I mentioned that I had a SD card that I formatted to Exfat and put if into the machine. I remembered it & just thought I'd take it out and confirm that It was formatted Exfat it was, and when I opened it on he PC it had all of the handful of programs that I had recorded in t...

The Old Man

Thanks Peter, I can now get into OpenWebIf this should make trying to make any changes both quicker & easier. I now know that I have lost all of my old recordings but have had managed to have a couple recorded last night. I tried playing one and it played but seems to stutter now and then. It se...

The Old Man

I also set V2 to record a program just now for 2 minutes and it did this OK. It might be that the only problem left is the "the hard link to timeshift". I still can't get into OpenWebIf because I can't find the used name & password isn't correct, and so far I can't find out where I kep...

The Old Man

The HDD in machine must be Exfat because I have been using machine for several years. I also added a spare 128GB Micro SDCard just yesterday although I have yet to see it evidence on the V2 for this on the machine itself, although I may not have looked in correct place.

The Old Man

Thanks for the advice for reconnecting to OpenWebIf I will try that as soon as I finish this update. I have slowly been picking away at the schedule programs that I would never want and correcting my EPG settings. This entailed selecting many hundred selections one at a time, it's a wonder that I do...

The Old Man

I would love to be able to get back into OpenWeBif but at the moment I can't. But I can get into Network settings, there are 2 lines, the first appears to be my router and the second it says (beyonwiz2) I copy the 192.1. etc and enter in the browser. I have a TP link router, but I think that it will...

The Old Man

I just turned V2 again and spikey wheel goes to 50 then tv comes on with "Hard link to time shift failed" message. I select media I see 3 programs recorded last night nothing else, I select EPD I get usual boutique screen which shows what's available and a couple of items coming up for rec...

The Old Man

Playing with machine just now it almost seemed to be working but the I got 2 more messages.

one says Hard link to Time shift and the other is Auto fix failure

So something is happening

The Old Man

I managed to have the V2 open for a couple of minutes and got 2 screen shot messages. I did manages to delete about a hundred programs scheduled to be recorded before the machine seemed to freeze up. On another post I'm told about the reset button. "If you hold it in when booting, it will load ...

The Old Man

If you have tried this button and did it do anything at all?

What did you insert into slot?

The Old Man

I have since unplugged the HDD on my V2 and plugged it into my PC but as expected this got me nowhere.

I had an 128GB MicroSD card that I formatted it to Exfat and put it into my V2 and booted up. Again the Spikky wheel stopped at about 49-50% mark.

The Old Man

I should have also asked is there any way to still retrieve any unwatched recordings that the V2 had made?

The Old Man

I was doing entering a search on my V2 and got distracted because I hadn't finished typing before I pressed the button. The result was that I had only inputted 1 letter before I pressed the button. The result was that I had perhaps a hundred new programs that I was trying to record. Many of these wa...

The Old Man

Is there any other location other then the CEC setting's that are found on the bottom of the first list from the main menu that can start/stop rebooting? I must have changed the settings 2 dozen times trying to just use one button press on the V2 remote to turn both the TV &V2 on/off? I know tha...

The Old Man

I most definitely have a V2 that is working. I have fast internet all over the house but have never managed to get the internet on it to connect to OpenWebIf I have tried several times to get the internet working and feel that I have gotten about 90% there. Every so often when I have time to waste I...

The Old Man

When I click the link you provided I get this screen. See Attached

The Old Man

I check and find that the to record list has the program listed. It is also in autotimer. I delete it from autotimer as well as list of programs to record. It should be totally gone but it isn't because I then I reboot and it back again. When I click on the link on your email I get the opps message ...

The Old Man

I have yet another appearing on the timer list that I could not recall requesting. I tried to delete it from the EPG but even once it was selected for deleting it would not so so.

Even after after rebooting it still appears.

Is there some other way to get rid of this problem?

The Old Man

I was trying to get this fixed but it appears that I have made things worse. The TV was going on this morning. I had forgotten that I had set it to record something in the middle of the night. Is there a guide to using CEC.? Failing that can I get all of my settings saved and then doing a complete r...

The Old Man

When I press the on/off button to turn both TV & V2 on my V2 is now always rebooting and TV reports that it can't find any signal. After it goes through the whole reboot it has its signal but then hasn't a TV connection to send it to. I had made some changes in the CEC settings, and obviously we...

The Old Man

By going into the V2 settings I see my Web aďdress I also know that the host name is beyondwiz2. But where do I go from here? I think that I may have to install OpenWebIf on my tablet but when I go to playstore to get the app there are several listed. Which one do I choose? And once installed what d...

The Old Man

I used to be able to see all of my V2 recordings but many things around house & router have chaned and I haven't been able to get it up and running again. I go to my V2 info data page and note my network number 192.1. ect. I then go and try to enter the same number into my Samsung tablet and th...

The Old Man

It wasn't the last minute changed to the program guide the same thing has happened before, I think the more likely explanation occurred from a time when we are watching a program and I get the spiky well which only lasts for a short time not the longer time that you see when you have to reboot.

The Old Man

When I go to my media button to see that I recorded last night I see a program that I don't recall setting. I note the time and station of this recording was made and go to my timer list I can see other complainted timers but this one isn't on the list, I also look at a list of Auto timers and it's ...

The Old Man

The shop still shows that there still a couple of things still available like a remote control. Would trying to purchage anything anymore just be akin to throughing your money into a black hole?
