This is very frustrating as neither RTÉ nor TV3 have a digital text service. |

Dave_Dublin, I see you contributed already to this thread re teletext problems, more added following call to Sky. You might find my responses interesting.

According to the site the new EPG update started rolling out in April, yet my sister joined Sky last year (before Christmas) and her box (Pace) came with the new software already, as well as a remote that has the little speaker symbol on the 0 button. I know the software was already installed as when we pressed the help button the option to turn on subtitles was there and pressing the 0 button brought up the speaker symbol onscreen as well as three dashes for number entry. How come it's taken so long to start downloading it to those already subscribed?

I have a Grundig too, which was sent out as a replacement to my Pace box a few years ago when it stopped working.
No sign of the new software, yet. Model number 2.64 Operating version 1.2S4F3 EPG version 3.2.11 Does any one know if with the new software the low battery warning is removed? I find that very annoying as it is always wrong. I have a couple of battery testers and whenever the warnings start I check the batteries and they always read as 75% good in both testers. |

I am sure I read that some Grundig Boxes will not GET the new updates... Something to do with memory or something.. Can't remember where I read it, I am 99% sure it was on this forum.

That is (of course) total BS ! The reality is that all boxes require the OS update - in order to allow them to operate the new EPG systems (radio & TV) that will be introduced in the autumn! |

I see a few Grundig's have now been updated (not mine yet). I seem to recall there was mention that updates were also on a geographical basis. Is this correct? Or it may of been something I heard when I was on ntl:

In fact this thread can be summed up as follows... - When will... - I've got the download... - So have I - So have I - I've not... - When will... You are correct in that cable downloads are done regionally. |

A: Downloads are done by box version not where you live I asked because according to DIABOLIC, who lives in Southend-on-Sea, Essex, his two Grundig GDS210/2's have been updated, and it is a GDS210/2 that I have (according to the label on the underside). I live in Tamworth, some miles away from Essex, so just wondered if there was any sort of geographic's involved as well, since what Sky says isn't always correct. They were telling me for 8 months that nothing was wrong when ever my picture kept blanking out and at times the whole system blanked out, but I was telling them that it occurred every time a car or truck went past my house and I suspected it was those snooper radar things. But Sky kept saying that was impossible as they do not emit any signal that could ever interfere with their signals, yet a few months after they then printed an article in their engineers only magazine (kindly shown to me by an engineer) saying the very same thing I had been telling them for 8 months. Had to have the dish moved to the back of the house in the end, on a great big T-bracket so that it is over the guttering, but the signal is still affected by those (now legal) snooper things. |
