I have a Humax iHDR5050 digital reciever at home with an internal harddisk. To get something of the harddisk a FTP connection can be made (USB is limited to files less than 4Gb) but it needs some configuration. Below is my setup.
- Crosswire UTP cable from Humax to my MacBook
- Start FTP server on Humax
- Manual configure IPADDRESS on Humax
IP 192.168.1.254
SUBNET 255.255.255.0 - Manual configure IPADDRESS on MacBook ethernet
IP 192.168.1.1
SUBNET 255.255.0.0 - (Only first time)In terminal run:
defaults write ch.sudo.cyberduck ftp.command.stat false
(here is why) - Create FTP connection as image below shows. Make sure Active (PORT) is selected and the browser connection is used on downloading.
A connection with good old commandline ftp works too, but sometimes a GUI is nice. When you use the commandline make sure to use the command “binary” to set the transfer from ASCII to BINARY.
