My guess/bet is it’s something to do with the iplayer.
Welcome to DS OP.

I've been keeping my eye on this and yesterday the DTG website reported that the current firmware update was due to end as of the 4th Feb. It still appears that this is still the case. It doesn't however state that a new version is being transmited from the 5th onwards. |

It's new firmware for the freeview 9150/9300 not the freesat boxes.

Just looked again, and I can't find anything that says a new update will be released on the 5th. I think grahamlthompson's post above explains it, as a couple of updates for some of the Humax Freeview PVRs are being released on 4/2/2010 & 6/2/2010. I'm more than happy to be corrected if you can provide a link so backup your claim however

Granted, the DTG website doesn't specifically state a new firmware will start on the 5th. But previous firmware OTA have followed a similar pattern of being replaced by a new version on the day after the previous one stopped being broadcast. I have just assumed that this would be the case on this occasion as well. I also agree, and am of the opinion that if a new firmware is being broadcast, that it is likely to be related to iPlayer (possibly going from beta to formal release).

Most likely is that they will be finally broadcasting the most recent FOXSAT HD version that has been on the support pages for weeks now!
Foxsat HD Application: HZPTSF 1.00.25 Resolves issues with loss of signal on High-band Vertical channels Question is WHY has it taken this long? |

Can you post the link to the article?
http://www.dtg.org.uk/industry/download_schedule.php However this page only shows the end-date of the old software. A quick flick round the various other pages didn't reveal anything. All we have is speculation about what follows the ending of .24. On past form it has been something new, but that's speculation not news. (Someone needs to explain this to news broadcasters!)

There will be an update for the HD to fix the vertical channel problems (OTA of the downloadable beta I guess) around 4/2 - 5/2.

I thought the DTG site was well known, for finding out when the next software was going out over-air on both Freeview and Freesat....

BUT i have had another "..Let me tune up your channels" and yes as before ..NOWT found and saved. ![]() Stan |
