What`s been improved with Rev.1.3. Does the box now wake up and record from Deep standby.
There were rumours of a mod being supplied to upgrade the older boards.

wish you can give it a try with the just released image so to confirm if it records from deep standby or not.

This will be great for all of us.

thanks in advance...

Will flash my box later tonight with the new official image to try and see if the deep standby recording works.
Will write a new post when tried.

Just for referance, the current revision is not 1.3 i believe it is 2.7. it has a white remote control and it is printed on the board. i dont know what the changes are as yet but if / when i find out i will post.

Yeah I recieved mine after the apparent new version was released.I haven`t checked the board to see what firmware it is,but it has a white remote,so I doubt it`s the updated one.

Please note the colour of the remote control does 100% NOT dictate what revision the board inside the box, the colour of the remote is just something that either the importer can request from VU+ or as is normally the case just get what they are given from VU+. I'll be quite honest after the revision 1.3 then not sure what the difference is on updated revisions, I am guessing that it's not actually any difference to the board itself and more to do with when they have been made (there is also the date on board) and perhaps for where the stock was intended to go, Europe, UK etc. I don't know this as fact though, is only a guess, but anything from 1.3 and above will work with recording from deep standby so really I honestly wouldn't be to concerned what you have as long as it's at least 1.3, but 100% the colour of remote does NOT dictate board revision. :)

these are latest 2.3

What about the stock that arrived in today (01/06/2010)? Do they state they are revision 2.3, or is it later?

Most likely 2.3, hopefully ********* will confirm.

2.3 from same UK batch as last time, we'd just about ran out last week was all so just mentioned we got a new batch in today.... but still same revision, white remote etc.

I will just again though remind buys, colour of remote does not dictate revision of the board inside and in any case revision inside really does not matter as long as you have Rev. 1.3 or above you are not missing ANYTHING that anyone else has.... As I say though todays stock is Rev 2.3 anyway.

Agreed, I recently got a Humax Freeview box and it has a jet black really shiny remote, looked great when unpacked, now is just a mess of greasy fingerprints.

Also, I imagine all suppliers now would be selling v 2.3 of this box, as the older revisions are now quite old, and stock has been out of stock a fair few times with all suppliers (obviously getting them back in stock to supply to customers, but then running out of stock again...)

We are expecting stock (like all other sellers in the UK) early next week. They arrive in the UK on Monday, but will need to clear customs and make their way to retailer's. They will be the latest revision.
