Re: Please document any V6 issues here.
You've hit the nail on the head Andrew.
Today the sound suddenly disappeared on all services; a reboot cured it though.
The problem of sporadic white audio noise continues, albeit very occasionally.

Re: Please document any V6 issues here.
There seems to be three separate threads regarding V6 issues. I've picked this one... hopefully people will pick it up.
Anyhoooooo.... I had my lovely V6 installed before Christmas. generally I am very pleased with it. I only have one box so haven't been able to try out any of the streaming options. Also, I haven't tried streaming/downloading to the app yet either.
However, I have noticed that I have had to reboot this box a few times because it got "stuck" whilst waking up. This has happened 4 times since I received it and twice alone this week. Has anyone else noticed this with their box? It's not a huge inconvenience but I never had to do this with my TiVo box. Perhaps it's been trying to update software or something.
Anyway, as I said, not a huge problem. I'm just curious if anyone else has observed the same issues.

Re: Please document any V6 issues here.
Yes, it's a known software issue. I expect it'll be fixed by a software update so bear with it for now. You could also try disabling power-saving in the Settings->Devices menu

What TVs is this an issue with? Or has this been fixed now anyway?

Re: Please document any V6 issues here.
Is anyone else experiencing erratic behaviour from their V6 remotes? I have two installed and have used one predominantly so far so I'm not sure if it's an issue with both.

Is there anyway field technicians can find out this information?

It was first reported on a Sanyo CE32LD47-B, but may well affect other TVs too. Whatever, it's easily worked around by disabling 1080i.

Try resetting the remote using the process I posted here: http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/sh...postcount=2480

Simply visit CF
There was talk of getting known errors made available on the PDAs, but that's all gone a bit quiet. I'll make enquiries.

Re: Please document any V6 issues here.
Over the last few days, mine has ignored four programme delete requests, rebooting it gets them to go away though.
The sporadic white noise is now a precursor to the box going slower and ignoring what you ask it to do with the remote eg tabbing down further than you ask it to.
Again, a reboot clears this. Happens once or twice a week.

This is something that some SkyQ users are reporting too.

That time was really bad, it has only happened the once though, touch wood.
---------- Post added at 19:29 ---------- Previous post was at 18:02 ----------
For the second time in a week, ive found that it hasn't recorded any daytime programmes. It seems to have stopped after I put it in standby in the early hours of this morning.
The first time that I become aware of this is when I try to take it out of standby as it says something like "waking up" and never progresses.
Again, a reboot gets it going again, but all the programmes set to record are lost.
Could this be a return of the problem where the box fails to record in standby and has to be left on 24/7??

Nope, just tried to watch one of the programmes that it failed to record via On Demand. In return I get a black screen and silence with none of the buttons doing anything.
Now waiting for another reboot to complete (which will mess up my evening recordings too).
I think you are wise to wait until these problems are sorted out Max.
