Re: New DVB-HD dowload on B & O page

Hello,

today firmware build 166 was installed on my BV 10-40 by my dealer. The HD module was updated to 0.1.6.6.0 last week by myself.

But the startup time of the HD module is still more than 30 seconds! Only if I switch on the TV directly after switch off it takes about 10 seconds. But if I wait a few minutes and then switch on the TV, it takes again more than 30 seconds.

I´m very disappointed!

Regards

Räuber

I had that problem with my bv10 as well. I was changing channels and the clock appeared and the tv froze so I had to turn it off then on again.

I have worse problems now though; after a burning smell the tv now doesn't work at all. Back to Service....

Installed this onto my BV10 on the weekend. No noticable difference, except that after about half an hour watching a channel, the screen goes grey, the old 'clock' makes a reappearance, the screen goes grey again, and eventually a picture reappears on a different channel - the one the television had been on when first turned on.

No such problem before the update. Surely more than coincidence?

Anyone else experience this problem?

I'm in Australia if that is relevant...

Ehlerz:

That cant be true. You are not able to update the DVB-HD module through ethernet on a BV 7.

/Ehlers

There must be something wrong with my BV7-MKIV then, because I have updated the DVB-HD module software at least three times during the last couple of years, using only the Internet connection.

In the setup menu I can see if there is a new version and load it by pressing the green button.

It is easy to verify that I have this latest version, as the buttons are different with the blue one for update of the program overview.

Edit:

I got it!!! Together with the USB stick and ethernet cable the BV7 updated to 0.1.66. Strange, isnt' it?

Confirmed: It is not possible to update your dvb-hd module on bv 7 without having ethernet plugged in. The tv simply does not look for the USB stick unless the ethernet is plugged in.

Haha...another FAILURE from B&O.

Hi Ole

That cant be true. You are not able to update the DVB-HD module through ethernet on a BV 7. Yor can however update your Bluray.

Not so. I have updated the DVB-HD module several times by using only the Ethernet connection.

Very strange, ethernet is only for Bluray update and BD live.

I tried with two different USB sticks. It says OAD check, IP check all the time. Then I connected the TV with an ethernet cable and I got the message that there's no updates.

I formatted both sticks and copied the two files (.txt and .fpkg) from the zip to the root directory but nothing has changed.

Is is not possible to update via ethernet.

This can only be done by USB.

I think it does not like my USB stick!

I had a problem with transferring an excel file on a stick ... eventually I reformatted the stick and it worked ... there must have been a bad sector on the stick !!!!

has anyone tried to update via Ethernet? I have 1.6.5 but it can't find an update. USB stick doesn't work... I think it does not like my USB stick!

Again, there's a new software available 0.1.6.6.0.

Now it takes 16 seconds to have a picture on BV10-40 with DVB-HD.

When I got my tv one year ago it took more than 44 seconds...!

With the latest software, I noticed that there's a bug after switching the mains off : when you start the tv for the first time after the mains off it takes more than 30 seconds to have a picture (and I sometimes see two B & O logo on the screen instead of one with an alterned quality).

Otherwise, after the first switch "on", it's 16 seconds again and that's great !

One other thing - why don't b&o give more info as to whats in the update? It would give people an opportunity to decide whether they want to chance an update ...

I realize that there are many countries they operate on - but assu ing that b&o know what they are fixing , it wouldn't kill them to communicate to the customer ....
