Updated successfully starting at 11.15am.
Ridge Hill trasnsmitter
It now says software verison PGXTF 1.00.04.
The loader version has stayed the same (a4.07).
Emley Moor
Didn't do a reset to factory settings in case I lost my recordings.
Box did not lock up on BBC1 at 12.59 as it normally does.
S/W version is now PGXTF 1.00.04 (I was on 1.00.00 before)
Crystal Palace transmitter.
This is because the update is on a carouselle - ie it cycles. So the box finds it, then it has to wait for it to start again before it can download it. You know, like teletext, when you go to a page and it's on page 2/9 and have to wait for ages for it to get back to 1.
PVR was in standby - voila instant update in a matter of seconds - very impressed.
No lockups.
No it doesn't have too. It might but actually do that, but it doesn't have to ignore everything until it gets to the start again. With you example it could store pages 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,1 and then put them in order before exicuting them. The box doesn't exicute the code until it's all downloaded anyway, so the fact that it would get the parts out of order is largly irrevelvent. My Thompson DTI1000 seemed to do this, the updates always progressed instantly. In fact the 9200T does thius with the guide, it doesn't wait for the cycle to start over before adding infomation to it, but does it as it is receved, of course the guide isn't totally useable until it's all receved, but it take less time that way.
Oh successful OTA at 11:30. The "New features added" message seems premature though - it just fixed bugs.
Good point. But I would imagine that the time taken to broadcast 2 full cycles is short enough that humax didn't bother with this logic. I don't know if addresses are broadcast in order to make it easy to reconcile the chunks or what. I dunno... it was just a suggestion really.
It certainly wasn't on Sandy Heath until well after 10 - (perhaps it was 10 am GMT?)
Successfully updated about 11.30 am
Used Automatic and it did what it says on the tin
Must admit , I always thought the updates were sent 'carousel' style , but never actually sure .
Update went well , thank goodness , now to advise customers of what to do ...
Any body else having trouble today with an update for a Philips IDTV that takes more than 4 hours of no progress ?? Perhaps it is just our customers ...
The new software addresses the same problem when you edit the start time of a timer.
The change most of us wants where the finished recording has an entry in the playlist of the name that was in the timer, rather than what was actually on when the recording started, is still outstanding. It was hoped that this would be fixed in the last beta but they need to go back to it as its not quite right. So I'll guess they'll change it but its not available, yet.
It stuck at 0% for a long time so i was slightly worried...
but left it and when i came back at around 6.00pm
got the message that it had updated successfully
Nice one
