[B J]

Just got the auto update last night DRX890 R006.058.60.00P .

Thank you seawright. Fixed the DRX595 piece too.

If anyone could verify the DR Stream for the Pace and Samsung STBs I would be grateful.

so what's included or fixed with this version of the firmware? I hope they've fixed the freezing issues where the box would just lock up for no reason.

You still have the firmware that either came with the DRX595 or the last public update.

I would definitely recommend that you read the first post and perform a forced update for your STB.

Hi,

FYI everybody

There is a NEW update circulating the boxes not sure if you knew as the table is still the same

R007.061.49.00P

Features:

• New start up message
• New software update notification
• Network screen modifications
• Broadband callback (single box customer only)
• Improved clashed management

Box versions beginning with 4F31 (Amstrad DRX890 or DRX895) will be updated in stages over the next month or so.

Box versions beginning with 4F30(Amstrad DRX780), 9730 (Samsung) or 9F30 (Pace) will be updated in the autumn.

Box versions beginning with 4E30 are Thomson boxes and, unfortunately, we no longer update this model.

Apologies, I forgot to update the table. I wasn't 100% about which version was going to be rolled out. Anyway, I have updated it now.

More details about the update are available here: http://www.skyuser.co.uk/forum/sky-h...pg-update.html

As for the other STBs, the Thomson model is already known about. The DRX780, Pace and Samsung I have no news about at this stage so will not confirm or deny the Autumn date range.

The original source is from sky's own website about all the boxes that are eligible for the software update

Thanks for that link.

I know a lot of Pace, Samsung and DRX780 owners will be upset.

Many are experiencing issues from the last update. At least they have an official time span now though.

The older boxes are struggling with the last update, another one will probably kill them off.
