HR2x / R22 CE Release for 10/17 0x0290

[DJ Rob]

I've had this release skip a bunch of recordings now.
In the history:
"Cancelled: This episode was not recorded because the program was no longer available"
"Cancelled: this episode was not recorded because of an unexpected error"

 

[jcrandall]

Aim - thanks for the kind words.

DJ - The first error you listed happens when guide data changes or the show has a title change, etc, making the box think it is no longer airing.

Much of what I've hear about the system lockups this week was related to bad guide data, which makes sense after the first time 10/6, indicating it can't be software download related.
Just speculation - but if there was a mess in the guide data, it may have killed some recordings. I personally didn't lose any (that I've noticed yet), so all I can do is speculate.

 

[DJ Rob]

Makes sense about the guide data probably causing these issues as opposed to the firmware...hopefully they will figure out what is up.

They just posted it at the other site that it's on. They are not listing any new features at this time but saying it's a VERY HIGH RISK release.

I'm thinking about signing up for CE testing. What do I need to do? This is the first Friday I was able to make it online.

Notes just came in...

 

[NutFlush920]

So from what I have read, it doesn't look like I'll be downloading this week for testing?

 

[jcrandall]

It's a BIG one this weekend, VERY HIGH RISK.

 

[jcrandall]

It carries a much requested feature, but is probably in very raw form, meaning BUGGY.

This one is for the die-hard CE guys

 

[rad]

They way I read the notes is that this CE doesn't actually give us any new feature but has the base code to build on. The new feature will actually be coming in some future CE release oce this code is proven.

Hey if something happens I have "the other provider" to fall back on...

Hopefully it doesn't brick the boxes so a reload outside the window gets us back.

Well, I guess one could read it that way too, way to burst my bubble

Guess we'll have to download and see

I got 2 H20's in last week I haven't activated yet... (upgrades) I'll make it

 

[NutFlush920]

I was just gonna ask...

If a CE build fails on my box can I just force download a national release later to fix?

Other site says CE for tonight delayed 1HR, start at 12midnight EDT.
