Finally got around to applying the update. Can't say I notice any difference though. Anyone a bit more excited than me about this upgrade?

Cheers.

Duddyx5: I heard from dish that it allows people to tune in local broadcasts like hawks bay TV in the hawks bay



I have a T1050 was told that the last updates were for TV3 problems with the TV3 updated,

Still a big problem is you cant play or watch MP3'or Video with MP3 sound.

And it does not support the delayed CH recordings on TV1+1 and TV3+1


And to easy to get interference from Cell phone towers like Telecoms XT network that works at 850Mhz.

My T1050 records from the +1 channels ok. If I try to book something on -say 3 and I have a clash it happily will record from the +1 channel.

If you try to the EPG the New at 6.05  it only records the news from that time until 7 pm, this is from a UPG setting, what its meant to do is the flag that recording to the delayed channel so it records from 7pm to 8pm.

My Panasonic does this, and I did get a lot of feed back how it should work from the Technical Manager at Freeview

DishTV  stated that they will not fix it so it works like the Panasonic.

Ah, ok, I see what you mean. Never run across that particular instance yet.

yeah we have run into this all the time - and for us, it is probably one of the most frustrating things about the unit :(
