NTL: do update browse quite often! Virgin Media TV and Phone

Friday, February 20th, 2009

While checking out ‘The Box’ the browse function “claimed” that the ‘Big Hits 1st’ was to continue until 11 pm, it said this many times, as I was just looking around. But then a program called ‘Behind Trax’or something like that came on and by 10:03 browse had been updated! I was pretty pleased.

Browse channel selection bug? (Original ntl: 5.32a software) Virgin Media TV and Phone

Friday, February 20th, 2009

When checking which channels I had and hadn’t got earlier after my upgrade to the Family pack, I was using Browse.

I had Browse open, and was pressing the left cursor key then Select to select the channel. (I was doing this instead of pressing “Channel -” so that I could select channels I wasn’t subscribed to and get the ‘you are not subscribed’ message).

At least twice, the banner at the top of the screen updated for the new channel, but the box kept displaying the channel I was last on. Repeating the channel selection forced the box to display the correct channel.

Known bug, my box being weird, or something breaking with today’s launch of more channels?
