Perhaps this too is no longer available on the DR Stream then

Hope not. If true then it won't be long before Sky drop support for everything pre-Q.

Whilst the SkyHD STB was pushed as the choice for Multi-room and later MultiScreen, it was also sold for the few Freesat from Sky installations.

In many cases were Multi-room & MultiScreen was installed, the new owners purchased a DRX890 or DRX895 instead. Often Sky promoted the DRX890 as a freebie, so customers would go for that instead.

Thanks! I got this on Saturday morning on my 2TB box. Looks good and all stable so far.

I have R15 on my other box upstairs (500gig) but that one wouldn't force the update to 16, so I'm guessing its not on the stream yet?

Actually there is very little difference between R015 and R016.

Basically a lot of people didn't like the Home Screen and Sky are looking at 3 different designs. They are looking at the feedback on this.

There are a couple of changes behind the scenes, but this isn't something that we'll notice.

Any bug fixes are promised for R017.

If anyone has any further comments about R016, could they be made in the thread linked above please.

Thank you.

The last update was to add some internal support, nothing customer facing. I guess this will be something along those lines or minor bug fixes.

Lots of reports I'm seeing of R016.084.66.00P overnight for SKy+hd boxes
