[jonathanen]

Latest firmware for DRX895W is R012.079.50.00P as stated on the first page of this thread.

Or perhaps not let me go and check my Sky box again.

Edit:
Version correct looks like this thread needs updating.

Ah, ha! That's it!! 47 something was popping inside my head while trying to remember, then this means the previous version for DRX895W was 1 step ahead with R012.079.47.00P firmware update while the other DRX895C's are still behind with R011.075.64.00P at the time!! Currently, all my 3 x Sky DRX895C's 2TB boxes with SD501 Wireless Connector MINI on each box (no longer have 2 x Sky+ HD Pace TDS850NB & Sky+ Pace TDS470N boxes) just updated to R012.079.50.00P via Forced Update!!

Thanks very much, Seawright for solving my mystery!! I'm so sorry about the mix-up!

Think it was R011.075.62.00P but why is this important as it is recommended to download the latest firmware when installing a Sky+ HD set top box.

The reason why this is important to me, I was comparing the differences between DRX895C & DRX895W (my very 1st Sky+ HD 2TB box experiment at the time) while making more notes on my 'DRX895C 2TB HDD Upgrade / Replacement & using ExPVR software with Windows Vista guide'

Oh, my god! Yes! You're absolutely right! That's why it was so confusing for me. That R012.079.47.00P (from 20-08-2015) bit for DRX895W was incorrect because this version was already available from June 2015 which I forgot to ask Scubbie for updating this thread, but I was too busy doing so many attempts with Copy Errors (29-06-15) while using ExPVR software and completely forgot all about it.

There has been a lot of confusion with the latest update. Some boxes were updated to R012 then were downgraded to R011, due I think to a dating error on the software. The R012 was time stamped earlier than the R011, maybe just a typo in the code.

Hi folks,

Thank you for keeping the different release numbers coming. I'm sorry that I hadn't got around to updating the table as quickly as I normally do but with the last one came out I was somewhere in the middle of the Atlantic and wasn't paying for the Ship's WiFi.

I've just updated the table to reflect that R012.079.50.00P is now rolling out and is also available on the DR Stream.

As Tom has pointed out, there was a hiccup with some people that caused confusion and upset amongst those affected. R011 was accidentally released to many who had just been upgraded to R012. The cause has been identified and this kind of thing shouldn't happen again.

I've just updated the table.

As of this morning R013.082.07.00P is being rolled out to everyone.

Cannot say I've noticed any on the first release.

[Scubbie]

There were some stability issues picked up, but the timing for when the 'Watch next episode' has also been refined a little.

The current version appears to be better.

I've just updated the table to reflect the fact that R013 is now available on the DR Stream for all the DRX89x STBs.

Just tried the DR Stream on my DRX890 and it's still on R012 here.

Still getting R012 on my staff box too.

Only selected model numbers getting the update as I understand it so far. The update is on DR stream but only for them.
