Great to see that the BTVision box (the V-box™) is getting a software update this month. The update focuses on three main improvements:
- Recording
All new recordings you set up will add 5 minutes to the end. This is great news, as the current setup often loses the last couple of minutes from the end of programmes. - Restarts
On a number of occasions we’ve returned to our BTVision box to discover that for some reason it’s rebooted itself and thinks it’s doing a first-time install. The new update will “reduce this from happening”. - User interface tweak
The UI is getting a tweak, making it “a bit more clear”, we’re promised.
All that said, overall as it is I think it’s a really great system. I need to blog about it at the other place … maybe once the update has gone through (sometime between 6 – 20 October).
