I'm getting a Sky + box delivered/fitted in the morning - will it already have the update or will i have to wait as well?


It will depend on which Sky+ box u get. I know they have updated the V1s, but not sure about the V2 & V3s. I would imagine seeing as they started with V1s on Tuesday they have done them all by now.


Nothing on any other Sky+ boxes yet - certainly not on my V2 & 160 anyway.

Yes this is part 2 out of 3, another change is on the way with the EPG channels to be fully sorted out.

Ah, I was wondering that. Presumably the next stage involves introducing the new channel categories as well.

I thought it was an all-in-one process!

That's correct it is in a bit of a mess at present.

Yep, still to come in the next update is the completely re-organised EPG:

and possibly the Favourites EPG:

Meanwhile most Sky+ boxes haven't had any update yet, just the original V1s.

"Soon" Confused

I hadn't heard anyone mentioned this feature before. In the example you have shown what would be the significance of the white highlighted programmes? Confused

Could be programmes in the Personal Planner.

Since the last software update, you've been able to choose to have either subtitled or audio-described programmes highlighted on the EPG in this way. It's via an option in one of the Setup menus.

I dunno if this is the thread to mention it, but Paramount +1 has launched on channel 128.
