So - who's going to be the first to do an OTA download?

Not me that's for sure.

I'm happy enough with my Toppy running on pre-Bastille software and Quickjump.

I don't use the EPG so the new softwares ability to save that info would be wasted on me and it would appear to slow down response of your machine - which I would rather it didn't do considering I won't use that feature anyway.

Also I don't like the introduction of the "OFF" bug. OFF is a feature I use regularly so it being faulty here is a definate no no.

Well, the 'off' bug seems to be pretty rare, and didn't crop up in the beta testing, so I suspect that it will affect relatively few people; from those who have reported it, there seems a fair suspicion that it's TAP related.

Just downloaded 5.13.40 before going to work.
Running MyStuff 5.1 TAP with Remote Extender and Description Extender, rebooted and came back with following
Remote Extender not compatible error 456 / 1340
Description Extender not compatible error 456 /1340 /18234 / 1829EC

one of the problems is the volume, there isn't any
Anyone else having problems
Any ideas
Now off to work hopefully to sort out later

You need to update your TAPs to be compatible with the latest firmware; as for the volume, you'll probably find that you can't adjust it because you have MyStuff running and not Remote Extender; try starting without any.

No TAPS. Downloaded update yesterday. No problems (touch wood).

Nice to have the EPG all there ready and waiting.
