Re: General Sky TV Discussion

The new EPG has been updated:

- Anytime has become "On Demand", and has a "Catch Up" tab with spaces for iPlayer etc. (still only ITV Player actually up and running at the moment I think though)

- The Planner now has a "Deleted" tab, so that you can undelete things. Anything deleted goes into the Deleted tab (like a Recycle Bin), and does not take up reported space in the user partition. The oldest deleted items are automatically removed when the box needs the space.


Still Amstrad 890 / 895 only so far. If you have an Amstrad box and it doesn't have the update, it is now available as a forced download if you can't wait for the roll-out.

Re: General Sky TV Discussion

Version 4.1 of the Sky+ iPad app is now available to download from the App Store!

Other than (so far) fixing the iOS6 freezing, it adds two new things:

1) Suggestions for when programmes you want to record clash with each other. You can also set the number of feeds your box has, as that would obviously affect clashing.

2) "Discover More". This is the zeebox integration mentioned some time ago. If you bring up a programme in the guide, you can select "Discover More" to bring up more info on it, with options to find out more about the cast members and visit related links. It also has Twitter integration if you'd like to post about something from within the app.

Didn't see changes last night, but can see them now

The changes look helpful
