When did that start spooling ?

Sometime yesterday.

One of my 211s updated to L4.38 last week, another didn't. Now the first is on L4.39. Must have been a problem with L4.38.

Must be because there's another beta update for the 211s spooling to the testers.

I see the 722's back on. I still dont have 5.10 as of last night.

I wish they'd test their "tweaks" better before throwing them out and hosing stuff up...

I know RandallA removes the actual serial numbers themselves, but maybe he can post how many are in the beta pool (??). Typically it's just over (200) or so for the 622/722 receivers.

Last beta update went to 245 622 receivers and 248 722 receivers.

OMG ! That's a lot of DVRs to test and squash bugs before general public begin suffering.

RandallA - do you check manually for the additions to spooling, or do you get some sort of automated notification whenver it happens ?

I do it manually. I run it on my main computer so I don't run TSReader 24/7. My plan is to setup a second computer to run it all the time and notify me when a new log is there.

So you could miss updates ? I presume they spool for a decent time though, like 24 hours or more, so as long as you checked twice a day, you'd probably be fine.
