Has there been an update to remove the left directional button from taking you back to your last viewed channel? It doesn't seem to work for me anymore.
![]() I tend to use blue button...but that is handy for quick change |

Yes, Sky have stated that the Sky+HD platform has not been declared obsolete, and software developments for it will continue, but for how long is anyone's guess.
I personally doubt that there will be any new generation of hardware for it now though.

are they going to bother with more updates now they have launched a brand new box?
According to what I've read, the homepage and the EPG are changing on the Sky+HD box in October. |

I completely agree, in some circumstances SkyQ is a better alternative to multiscreen, but not in all circumstances, such as if you want to have a lot of storage and independent planners, which only two or more 2TB Sky+HD boxes will give you..
As it stands, the only way to get a UHD capable system, which would be the only reason to get it for me personally, would mean having a SkyQ Silver system which would include as standard at least one mini box which I don't want or need. Until they change that, SkyQ will also be something that I neither want nor need, as at the moment I'm not prepared to pay for something that's of no use to me just to get UHD from Sky.

I assume he means a software update for the hardware, not a hardware update!

Ultra HD support will be included in the Q002 software along with a few other features, as well as bug fixes for the main issues people have been experiencing with SKYQ.

It's the future but the future is still delayed for a bit in my home. |

Woke to find the new update, not interested in 'Today's Top picks', nor do I like it taking up half the screen, how do you get rid of that, or at the very least, re-size it, currently it's advertising 'James Corden' in something or other, I don't want that tanletless gimp taking up half the lower screen without asking. The little 'view bar' on recorded stuff is ok I guess, the 'continue' tab is a waste of time, I'll never use that, would prefer the A-Z tab back. Also for whatever reason the update has deleted near everything from my 'Deleted' tab, I know I deleted them, but still, that's not the point. |

The new "home page" is awful, don't like how small the main tiles are, for me the TV Guide tile is the most important and I've no interest whatsoever in "Top Picks" or even OnDemand. Hope this change is optional via settings/customise.
