New DVB-HD dowload on B & O page

26 replies

Very happy with this update !! It fixed my problem where I couldn't rescan without having channels in two separate groups ( any single groups the tv would scan had either abc numbered wrong, or channel 7 upwards wrong). It (relatively) fixed a niggle I had had with the guide - that it wasn't populated unless I had first visited each channel - at least the update epg option on the guide page allows me to quickly populate the guide for each channel without leaving the guide.

I seem to be able to see more in the info page - I have a rating appear, and I'm sure something else (more text) but haven't been able to pin it down ..

Overall - very happy !!

 

Now if b&o could make the dvb-hd turn on quicker (as a free software update) I'd be ecstatic. Still a very happy beo owner though....

One other thing - why don't b&o give more info as to whats in the update? It would give people an opportunity to decide whether they want to chance an update ...

I realize that there are many countries they operate on - but assu ing that b&o know what they are fixing , it wouldn't kill them to communicate to the customer ....

Again, there's a new software available 0.1.6.6.0.

Now it takes 16 seconds to have a picture on BV10-40 with DVB-HD.

When I got my tv one year ago it took more than 44 seconds...!

With the latest software, I noticed that there's a bug after switching the mains off : when you start the tv for the first time after the mains off it takes more than 30 seconds to have a picture (and I sometimes see two B & O logo on the screen instead of one with an alterned quality).

Otherwise, after the first switch "on", it's 16 seconds again and that's great !

has anyone tried to update via Ethernet? I have 1.6.5 but it can't find an update. USB stick doesn't work... I think it does not like my USB stick!

I had a problem with transferring an excel file on a stick ... eventually I reformatted the stick and it worked ... there must have been a bad sector on the stick !!!!

Hi

Is is not possible to update via ethernet.

This can only be done by USB.

I tried with two different USB sticks. It says OAD check, IP check all the time. Then I connected the TV with an ethernet cable and I got the message that there's no updates.

I formatted both sticks and copied the two files (.txt and .fpkg) from the zip to the root directory but nothing has changed. 

Edit:

I got it!!! Together with the USB stick and ethernet cable the BV7 updated to 0.1.66. Strange, isnt' it?

Very strange, ethernet is only for Bluray update and BD live.

Not so. I have updated the DVB-HD module several times by using only the Ethernet connection.

Hi Ole

That cant be true. You are not able to update the DVB-HD module through ethernet on a BV 7. Yor can however update your Bluray.
