Re: Bromley STB update

I wonder if that updates going to be all over the Bromley platform (whatever its done). I'm in Manchester myself but not had any update on any of the STB's we have here. Then again I could come under a different franchise to you, as for some reason I come under the Bury one for TV yet Oldham for my Broadband

Re: Bromley STB update

what is your software version. if there was an update, then the SW version code would change.

currently it has .PO. in the middle. (CR3 + MR1)

It says P1.3.1.PO.cr3 so maybe it was nothing.

Re: Bromley STB update

Strange yours is P1, mines P2.3.1.P0.CR3 - unless the P1/P2 relates to the different boxes such as the 1000, 2000 etc?

Re: Bromley STB update

Most unlikely to be a code download - these take months to plan and execute, and I doubt the DTV team (well, I'm in it, sort of) would be doing a Bromley download at the same time as concentrating on CR3 on Langley.

That is indeed what it is: P1 for 1000, P2 for 2000, P3 for 4000.
