    Hi Daniel,

    Can you clarify what you mean in a bit more detail? If you try and update a player/app when there's not an update available it won't work.

    If you goto settings followed by software information then press update players and apps on this screen it says we can't update your players and apps. Please try again later or visit support.youview.com for help.

    The previous release worked fine for this so obviously a issue.

    I have raised this....This is not the way it should work.

    @redchiz it has only started happening since the new update (29.27)

    Exactly Scott this to me is a major issue. Imagine if one of the apps get updated and we can't get the latest version of it.

    you mean you were hoping this new release would bring a new app ;) me too :'(

    Of course this is also an issue for an update of an exisiting app :)

  • I just received the 29.27.0 update and I'm very pleased with it. Being able to hide all the programmes I never watch is great and was one of the things I missed the most when the new interface first landed. I also like the fact that the menu bars hide much quicker than they did.

    The only thing I would like to see implemented is the ability for the programme guide to round robin as it used to. 

    I have zero issues thus far with this latest update other than my point above.

    @HowardHopkinson can you please test the update players and apps that others are having issues with please?
  • SarahSarah Member Posts: 1,812 admin
    @scott @Daniel - Thanks for raising this, the picture is helpful as well. 
    I've forwarded this on and it's currently being looked into.

    @Daniel I have a T4000 also. Would be nice to know if specific to this box or to all BT variants.

    I agree. It's a shame that it's been released with this issue present. I'm wondering if bt where a bit keen on this release.

    If someone fancies it could they try resetting both hub and box to see if that helps. I was told to do this but don't like resetting hub unless I really have to as DLM steps in if I do it too often and drops my speed.

    Plus don't believe it will actually do anything, always worth a try though...

  • redchizredchiz Member, Super User Posts: 5,476 ✭✭✭
    Or just try the soft reset on the box?

    @scott I'm on a different broadband provider but kept the box. Resetting my router does nothing for this issue I just tried it.

    Doesn't help nor does a maintenance mode reset. We have tried these while I was posting on here.

    I didn't think so but thanks.

    @redchiz I have tried soft reset on box multiple times (that doesn't affect my BB speed :) ) and know that alone doesn't work.

    I have checked the players and apps and have no issues at all Daniel.

    Ok guys, forgive me, sometimes one forgets the bleeding obvious, I know I do!
  • DanielDaniel Member, Super User Posts: 1,979 ✭✭✭
    @HowardHopkinson did you follow the instructions in my post and also what box do you have and can you take a photo of the screen please

    Thanks @HowardHopkinson , what box variant do you have. this is starting to look like a t4000 issue maybe.

    Thanks for raising the issue regarding the players & apps update button.

    After looking into this, it's just a visual bug so the players themselves will continue to update when a new version is available. We'll make sure this issue gets resolved in the next update. 

    Thanks again,
    Sarah

    Thanks @Sarah it is good to know that when the YouTube and Amazon app's are released I won't miss out on getting them then :p

    Anyone know if this fixes the Live Pause doesn't work after 2 hours if you are recording problem? 

    If it does then I'll go to the faff of swapping back in my DTRT-2100 box to get it otherwise I'll stick with my DTRT-1000 that has a working live pause but unsurprisingly does not get this update (anyone left that believes that 'no box will be left behind' story?)

    Thanks Sarah. Did the team say if this effects more boxes than the dtr t4000?

    Hi all,
    Just to let you know, the incorrect message bug can be prevalent on any BT model. So its not confined to just T4000s.
    I get this too on my T2100, but there is no actual bug, its just a wrongly worded message.
    I'm now happy with the disagree icon, because its gone.
