Odd counted displayed on V+ box

There's a strange counter appeared as the default display on my V+box it's counted up to 33214 so far and increments by 1 every 10 seconds or so. It sometimes flickers between that number and the current channel (if the box is on) or the time if the box is on standby.

It's nothing major I guess, but it's a bit annoying, and wondered if it had some deep significance.

It could be downloading an update?

How long should that take? It's been more than 24 hours

Pob, Give faults a ring, as chickendippers said it may be a update gone wrong, dont power off until you have spoken to faults.

Gave them a ring, they weren't aware of any updates that could have caused an issue. She asked me to reset the box and that appears to have cleared the problem.
