When you say not working do you mean crashing or giving an error message?

ikthius · 27-04-2004, 12:20

Well, I was eagerly awaiting the new software in Glasgow and when I checked today, We have not got it yet.

I have 2 boxes in the house, and both are pace 4001.
I just thought that it got sent as a signal and everyone would get it, or does it get downloaded by machine model?

oh well, never mind, no doubt i will get it one day.

Giving an error Message. Probably will sort its self. Will see when I am back at work tomorrow.

They are doing it by box type. I do believe it was the 4010(or at least on type of that box that got it today.

What's the error message?

It might be a return path issue or a box problem rather than CR3.

chrissyb · 27-04-2004, 18:21

Nothing for me yet, and I'm in teesside.

Have a 4010 box, if that makes a difference...

ntlrocks · 27-04-2004, 18:46

If you have a 4001 box, try switchin it off at the plug then turnin it back on, and you might get it.

ikthius · 27-04-2004, 21:40

tried switching the box off at the mains twice today on both boxes, it doesn't help

Can someone tell me how to set up Manual reminders on this new fangled software? It always comes up Auto and there seems to be no obvious way (to me) to change them to manual.

There are auto reminders only.

When a reminder comes up on screen you can just cancel it!

That's a definite negative point.
I wonder why they have "Auto" in the diary on the right hand column then. If there is no alternative to Auto then why waste the space telling you?
I'd like the manual reminder option back please.

Stephen · 28-04-2004, 10:06

I prefer the auto reminders. Never use the manual ones. If I decide not to watch something I just press cancel when the reminder comes on screen. Was the same when I had sky, always auto reminders.

I can only suppose it is for the transition from the old version - people would be used to the old format!

Why is it that when i want to change channel from 140 (sky one) to 144 (E4) it goes to 101? So far CR3 is doing my head in, along with those rubbish remote controls that barely work.

Euan · 28-04-2004, 16:56

Can someone tell me why Ntl didnt include the option to turn off etv as they did on bromley

ntlrocks · 28-04-2004, 18:05

Oh My God, i just realised i got one of those green balls

Can't say I've seen this happen on my boxes or any of the ones in the office. Is it when you use channel up/down?

If so you may have set the favourites before on CR2 and reseting them will get things back to normal.

You can change it so the reminder appears for up to 7 minutes before the program. Is there any specific reason you need the manual option and not just an automatic switch?

Has the Andover date been changed as no guide has come through the post, and no software update either (although from previous posts this could be that the updates for the version of the box are not being played out yet).

Just curious.

eoin.miskell · 29-04-2004, 06:49

Has the Hemel update date changed because i do not have it and channel ntl is still showing the usual ads
