    Bump!

    Ordered one on Monday and got it this morning, spent an hour setting it up and learning the features. Very small, silent operation, the remote is fine after you get accustomed to it and that's true for every remote in my experience. It is small though - luckily I have pianists hands!

    The most impressive feature is the way it integrates Freesat and other FTA channels on the one favourites list. I understand that Manhattan is the best freesat EPG in this regard (?), the actual picture and sound quality is as one would expect, albeit with somewhat saturated colour, had to use TV remote to dial the colour down about 30% but I like a subtle pallet.

    From satbuyer it took 48 hours almost exactly. Total euro cost of 239 (165 + 20 delivery + VAT = 190 quid all in)

    If they got 5 Manhattan would sit on their arse thinking they'd done the job to perfection!

    bump

    just a parish note for a useful software update
    Enhancements

    - When playback of a recording is completed, the user is returned to the library with the recording selected, rather than back to the top of the library
    - When watching a recording, pressing the BACK or LIB button returns to the currently playing recording in the library
    - Changed Step 2/5 in first time installation to show both tuners signal. Also a warning popup is displayed if no signal is detected on LNB IN 2 and you proceed with the installation
    - Changed hard disk error waring prompt to make it clearer on how to recover the operation of the hard disk
    - Series linked programmes only display in folders when there is more than one episode recorded

    Fixes

    - Assorted recording and library fixes
    - Failed recordings issue caused by box going into standby when a recording is imminent
    - Random crash when a number of overlapping/conflicting recordings are scheduled
    - Series recordings will always be made from the original channel the recording was made on
    - Endless recordings
    - Adding or removing of reminders in the Schedule
    - Assorted core stability fixes

    warning a reset is needed, your recordings are safe but everything else will revert to factory settings.
