It makes the STB ready for the new EPG system that will be rolled out over a six week period in the autumn.

I've tried a forced update on my Grundiug 264 box, it came up with the message saying something like Installing new software, this may take up to 10 minutes (or something like that). 5 or so minutes later, the update message went off. I turned on the box, but still haven't had the update! Please help.

unplug your box, put it back in the original packaging, store it safely in your loft for 12 months. The update should be available then.

sorry if this has been covered elsewhere.
But yesterday, I changed channels, then watched something. Just after midnight. Then went back onto the EPG - with All Channels. And the listings for some of the chanells - BBC 1- 5 and some others, like sky channels, itv 3/4 bbc/3/4 - and other channels - had their blue background replaced with white. IT looks odd and horrible. IS this something to do with an update or something?... it was only the listings. The channel name stayed the same. |

Holy crap. I am a self-admitted newbie here, but even I had the sense to read the posts...
IF YOU DO A FORCED UPDATE YOU WILL NOT NECESSARILY GET THE NEWEST SOFTWARE You will get the most recent STABLE software; ie software that has been out long enough for the bugs to be ironed out to an extent. |

I bought a DS430N and for the moment just want to watch the FTA channels like ITV3 so I dont have a viewing card yet.
I could add channels a few weeks ago but now I can't because when I try to go to Other Channels I get a message to Insert my viewing card. Could this be the new software and if so can I reverse the process? |

Anyway, what about subscribers that had to pay for their boxes before $ky started giving them away, should they get the upgrade before me just becuase they paid for their box. To say what you did was a bit pathetic really.

Has anybody else made Sky aware that there is NO analogue teletext on ANY channel on Digiboxes that have the updated software?
This is very frustrating as neither RTÉ nor TV3 have a digital text service. |
