Version 1.00.21 brings the device up to Freeview Playback Group 2 standard, offering three key features: series link, whereby it will record every episode of a series when selected; split recording, allowing users to link programmes recorded in two parts, such as where a film is interrupted for a news bulletin; and alternate instance recording, where users are alerted to other showings of programmes in the event of a recording clash.
The new version also offers several bug fixes and performance enhancements to Freeview Playback Group 1 functionality. The electronic programme guide populates and is available for use during recorded programme playback, and a bug with consecutive recordings while using the ChasePlay feature has been resolved.
The update is available now on digital terrestrial multiplex 1, and will be downloaded to compatible boxes (PVR-9200T, PVR-9200T/B, PVR-9200TBX and PVR-9200T/S) in standby mode overnight. It is also available by manually initiating an update or downloading it over the web and uploading it to the box via a null modem/serial cable.
