Generally good.
The time to pull up various menu screens is for me, some 2 to 3 times faster – not that they were awful before, just a little sluggish. Maybe they have enabled the second core?
In spite of not being on the official list of enhancements, multi-room streaming is supported. But only having one box I can’t comment how effective it is.
The improved up scaling has improved the PQ of SD very slightly – for me anyway.
Pressing stop when playing a recording now does what it says on the tin – namely it stops!
Global padding has been implemented but in a rather simplistic fashion. Now when setting up a series link or an individual programme to record, you now have two options. Record This Episode and Express Series Link, selecting either sets the programme(s) to record with padding of one minute before and four minutes after. If for whatever reason you wish to change the values, you can do so by selecting the programme in My Planned Recordings, and make your required changes. A little annoying but at least you are not stuck with their global padding values.
Overall I’m pleased with the update everything is noticeably perkier and slicker.
