Hi
Have just got a TM 6900 to replace my Humax 5400, getting use to it now but the only problum i can see with it is the possision of the USB port, i have a 320gb hdd pluged in, but it looks a bit untidy to leave the door open and usb lead in.

Can you get a flat usb cable (slimline) as i can plug in and close the door ? Have had a look on the net but cant find anything.

Can anyone suggest a channel editor to work with tm files ?

Thanks for any help..

No need to mod the box by drilling holes, just get the new "TM6900 Super" receiver, just released, with 2 x USB ports, front and back. The new "Super 6900" also includes blind scan, sounds like a nice piece of kit.
