Just repalaced my Bush freesat recorder for a new Samsung S7800 and have just down the instalation...however it asked do I want to download new software which I said yes!!! It has now being showing the screen "dowloading new software" an d a rotating circle for around 20 mins with a Software ups on the box!! How long should this update take?? Thanks

Took around 25/30 mins.
Bit underwhelmed with the Samsung at present...the programme guide does NOT show programme in HD symbol which the Bush did. Having installed a Scottish postcode is does not seem to allow me to use a Non freesat search mode??? Wanted to add Sky news! Also wanted to add ITV1 HD/STV HD ITV+1/ STV+1. Seemingly these could not be done on Bush boxes. Seems a very well built machine but having spend an £230 on it I am a little miffed at the lack of certain features.

After a couple of hours playing around I have found it all!!! Growing to like this machine......great picture quality as well.!!!
Sorry all!!

Ensure you have the 5.0.300 version, if not, download it from samsung site. Firmware update from USB is much quicker (1-2 minutes).
