New Sky+ software 20th July 2004
The morning of 20/7/04 should bring new software to all PACE models of Sky+. It will bring them into line with all standard digiboxes by adding such things as the 2nd picture location format.
The upgrade should occur at 5am
You cannot force an update as it is not included in the DR stream for the time being.

It allows for the fact that you may have a 16:9 set in one room and a 4:3 in another. If you use a TV Link system it automatically adjust the picture aspect ratio according to the TV being viewed.
If you are asking if the new software creates a more stable base for upgraded drives then who knows. Sky doesn't officially support upgrades.
One suspects then that this upgrade will also deliver the yellow messages icon in the S & S banner, the ability to cancel a reminder you have set for a programme via the S & S instead of going into the TV Guide each time,and the ability to set up a Pin Protect number on all Interactive services.
This upgrade has been talked about for a while now on this forum, considering Digi-boxes have had this s/ware for a good couple of months or so now.
I wonder if this means the opportunity is to be taken to ' fix ' some bugs at the same time.

Ok, I'll rephrase it. What are the chances of just putting the software back to how it was before the YTS "programmers" messed it up?
Correct on the features james but bugs? Sky+ doesn't have bugs
There's plenty on mine at the moment, however that's due to the warm weather and my lounge windows being open
Regards James
Hope there's some bug fixes thrown in for good measure.

Im not exactly sure what this does....any thoughts?

Both my V1 & V2 updated.
Particularly like the option to cancel a programme reminder within the S & S insted of entering the planner.
It's a start, however wouldn't it of been nice to of received new s/ware and features relating to Sky+, instead of just eventually giving us what standard digiboxes have had for the past 3 months.
Even bug fixes would be nice.
