The latest firmware has caused problems with my tuner 1. Looks like this might address it. Thanks

According to the admin on the Octagon site the tuner update also improves PQ and boot up time is shortened as the HDD check is no longer manditory.

I have PIP.

If you press 'blue' during normal viewing you get a mosiac.
If you press the three buttons above the numeric pad you get various PIP features. I used tonght to watch Chelsea and Liverpool get humilated

Bugger Bresnan out!

I downloaded the skin from the plugin menu which also has CrossEPG. It says that it is for Sly but I'm in SA so can't confirm.

the crossEPG is ok,but its just a list of programs on, and misses some out, maybe im just not doing it right, i keep flitting between E2 and normal f/w
