Recieved the update today morning.
Noticeable Pros
Quick channel change
Channel guide updates faster
Recording function activated (but needs subscription). I think VOD button on remote enables / lists recordings. Also found in menu.
press the * button n u'll get multiple sound options.
New home screen.
Cons
Channel Guide highlight colour (kind of meroon)
is disgusting.
Takes more than a minute to boot if switched off.
But quick start if in standby mode.
After connecting a pen drive the stb has to be switched off and restarted to be detected. It takes sime time to format the drive.
In my case it prompted a message stating it could not format. But as soon as I restarted, it recognised well and showed the recording list. Amazing firmware;-/
Red button is to start recording. Probably pressing that again might stop. Not sure.
The new firmware is good for recording matches this season but fast channel change and programme display are the most useful. As it was the most irritating factor is previous firmware.
Awaiting the same update without glitches on my 1TB DVR, only for fast channel switching.
