On your remote, press Services,0,0,1,Select. (Press each key without pausing)

You should see (Setup) highlighted in yellow now , use the left arrow twice to highlight Sky+ Rebuild in yellow , press select twice and let the procedure complete.

Excellent, worked great.
Any idea's why this happens or is it just a quirk?

Not sure mate however a planner rebuild generally sorts many issues out.


Updated Sky+ app (Planner management , remote control functionality) now available for Android on Google Play , I've tested on a Nexus 7 and all works well.

I have had issues when trying to change channel via the app. When scrolling down when on ITV HD i get an error and an error code. Its when i go back down to that channel, any one else got issues?

Would be better if they were starting in 4K or 8K so library footage doesn't look like pants in a few years.

4K is ok if you have a 4K TV 80" or larger :D

Can't see many people in the UK adopting those screen sizes anytime soon.

Guardian: Planet Rock bought by Bauer Media.

Quote:

Bauer Media, a German-owned private company which is also homes to magazines including Grazia and Heat, confirmed the deal on Wednesday as predicted by MediaGuardian last month.

The loss-making digital radio station was put up for sale by its owner, millionaire entrepreneur and rock music fan Malcolm Bluemel last year.

Bauer bought the station for an undisclosed sum but the company is thought to have paid between £1m and £2m, with the sum likely to be closer to the former than the latter.
