Re: NTL seeks STB beta testers
 

Missing barcodes won't be a problem - we can find the info out by other means if necessary.

By the way, Ashley is on hols for a couple of weeks, so it'll take a while to get a response if you try to sign up now.

I was told that this will not work as i have two STB and i only wanted one to be used for beta testing.

:notopic: how do i check ALL of my reputation points, as now i can only see the top 10, and am actually finding them interesting, as i got a negative point for saying :

"in two posts you spelt the word THEN wrong"

can i only view the top ten (p.s this is my first off topic comment ever i think so dont be harsh it aint worth starting a thread over)

Re: NTL seeks STB beta testers
 

I have only given the info for one STB and have two in the house.
Can't see how the network can tell you have two boxes in your house, as opposed to you and your neighbour having one box, doesn't the coax just star out from the distribution boxes, there is no router for CATV channels.

They are sending the software out to specific boxes, they just need to know from a db POV which ones they are that is defined by serial number and all these other details.

Re: NTL seeks STB beta testers
 

For Bromley users you CAN'T have one box in test mode but not the others (at the moment). Langley users probably can.

Re: NTL seeks STB beta testers
 

I'm on langley so that makes sense.

Re: NTL seeks STB beta testers
 

I've been thinking about this, but I'm on Bromly and I'm definiately not beta testing on both boxes so thanks for posting this.

Re: NTL seeks STB beta testers
 

Same here, I would like to BETA test one but not both as one controls BB as well.

Re: NTL seeks STB beta testers
 

its prob testing the software on the box

Re: NTL seeks STB beta testers
 

Just to revisit this one, did anyone from CF sign up to the beta testing? What's it like?

Does it include the intended 2005 rollout of VoD software etc?

Just being nosey!

Re: NTL seeks STB beta testers
 

All quiet at the mo, Bromley was getting the Beta first and being Langley that excluded me. But even if I was we've effectivly signed NDAs

Re: NTL seeks STB beta testers
 

Yes, lots of people signed up, but they aren't allowed to tell you what is happening. Sorry.

Re: NTL seeks STB beta testers
 

there's no vod being tested at the moment

Re: NTL seeks STB beta testers
 

My lips are sealed...;)

Thoughtt hat might be the case :) Glad it seems to be successful so far though - thanks for letting me know.
