new software in hatfield... false alarm :(

10-01-2005, 13:57

well i turned the box on and no guide as normal so i rebooted... got some weird er20 error! then held the bottom arrow down and the numbers started counting down with some new software

edit: but it all looks the same! very weird.... maybe this isnt the new vod stuff after all.

edit2: nope, same software numbers on the downstairs box, weird, never had that before

sorry

i think the error 20 thing may mean my box is about to die though...

I don't know to be honest. The VoD software will look more or less the same, at least until the functionality begins. I'm sure someone else can help you with the Er20.

The new software will look more or less the same for Langley users. For Bromley users, it will mean a change back to blue...

The Samsungs are OK when they aren't sleeping and knacking up your screen ratio
