MR2 Being Rolled Out At The Moment
 

I have been reading at Digital Spy that MR2 is being rolled out at the moment.

http://forum.digitalspy.co.uk/board/....php?p=1947257

Can anyone confirm this, and can anyone confirm the dates for the MR2 rollout?

If Sam B is reading this thread, then can she confirm that MR2 is being rolled out, and when certain areas will be recieving the download of MR2. Will all of the ex-cwc areas have the MR2 software by the end of May, or will it only be northern areas of the UK that recieve the MR2 download by the end of May, and other areas will be recieving the MR2 software via STB download later in June, or later?

i certainly hope MR2 is rolling out now.
cr3 needs the update, it's been particularly bad today! :(

MR2 ????

I presume you dont mean the Toyota?

What is it?

Re: MR2 Being Rolled Out At The Moment
 

MR2 stands for Maintenance Release 2, which is a new update for CR3 (the current purple software), and it gets rid of the bugs and changes the colour scheme to blue, instead of purple.

Re: MR2 Being Rolled Out At The Moment
 

Maintainance Release 2.
For the bromley / ex-cwc digital network, to "fix" bugs (and ther's plently of them :() on the CR3 that we have and make it look like the new Langley CR3.

EDIT: Beaten to it :cry: :D

LOL at bigitup_j. You explained it better than I did anyway. :)

Re: MR2 Being Rolled Out At The Moment
 

Anyone know whats in the Brighton Area? I know its Ex Cable and Wireless, but i have no idea what Langley and, until now, CR2 is.

Its the purple one, and its ****, can i assume its CR1???? IF thats the right term to use?

Re: MR2 Being Rolled Out At The Moment
 

If you live in a Bromley area, your BBC ONE is on channel number 1, and if you live in a Langley area, your BBC ONE is on channel number 101. The EPG software is is not called CR2 - it is called MR2 (Maintenance Release 2), which fixes bugs in CR3 (purple software). CR2 is the blue software, which was released before MR2 (the purrple software).

Re: MR2 Being Rolled Out At The Moment
 

You have CR3...most Bromley customers do. it has a lot of problems, and MR2 will turn it blue and make it better.
CR1 is what Londoners have, basically just the EPG and Tv On Demand, no interactive at all.
CR2 was the software you had before CR3 (before it went all pink!) - when it was blue/greeny. it's true it did work much better, but it did not allow ETV features, such as Multi-screen and "pressing the red button" stuff.

so CR3 is the latest software.

hope that helps :)

EDIT: aaaarrrrggggghhh! beaten again :D

Lol. ;)

Re: MR2 Being Rolled Out At The Moment
 

so does any one here have MR2 yet then?
i presume, it was rolled out over night. :confused:

Re: MR2 Being Rolled Out At The Moment
 

That's what I made this thread for - to find out. :)

Re: MR2 Being Rolled Out At The Moment
 

Its getting a bit confusing, here's my take on it;

Bromley=Ex-CWC (with the exception of some London areas)=Purple EPG=BBC ONE on '1'=CR3 software with MR1, as applied over a year ago

Langley=Original ntl=Old blue or new blue EPG=BBC ONE on '101'=CR3 (new blue) in increasing numbers of areas, or old (5.02?) software revision in those areas not yet updated.

Re: MR2 Being Rolled Out At The Moment
 

that is correct

Isn't that what bigitup_j and myself were saying? ;)
