Sorry if a bit of a numpty question, but am assuming the download is
automatic? Does receiver have to be left 'on' and tuned to any Mux 1
Channel or will 'Standby' do?

Has to be left on any Mux 1 or Mux B channel for a couple of hours or so.
Switch to standby at leisure. When you bring it back out of standby, it will
boot on the new software AIUI.

All ok here. I left the receiver 'On' and tuned to BBC1 during the day
yesterday (5th). I then switched to 'Standby' and then back to 'On', at
which point it booted on the new software.

My Sony has not updated either and I have left it on BBC News24 the whole
time.
My software version is 1.12.02.U and loader version is V1.09, I was just
wondering if anyone else with loader version V1.09 has got the update.

Getting a bit of Deja vue here, just answered this over at digital spy.

Initial attempt at 5pm (through wakeup timer) failed, but when I left it on
BBC1 from 7-8pm it updated fine.

Thanks for your reply Stone Free, I will just have to wait and see if mine
does update at least I know now that the loader version is not the
problem.
As for your feeling of Deja vue I am afraid thats my fault. I thought I
would ask the question over at digital spy aswell, strange that you should
answer me on both, the big wide web not so big after all.

Thanks again

Does this mean I cant update it anymore?

As an aside, I dont have an EPG anymore - there is no data there. Is
this an effect of not getting the update?

Bloke.
