Latest Firmware

[Graeme]

This version is a bit more stable that the current supported firmware (1.5.4) but it now drops all the scheduled weekly recurring recordings at the end of each week. Mon-Fri recurring recordings are Ok but anything where the recurrence is weekly (eg every Mon) disappears at the end of the week.

Thank you for the feedback, this issue has been referred to DVICO and I expect it to be fixed shortly.

The new scheduler is quite nice with the wizard feature but it's a little messy
I think it would be much more simple to use 24hrs notation for start and end time rather than the AM/PM one (I'm french and this notation means nothing to me). Especially for night recordings eg 00h35 to 02h40 (one should select PM 12:35 AM 02:40, here after 00:00 it is AM !)
And on the last screen it would be very useful to see how long the recording will last, that's an easy way to check if everything is fine
One other little thing is the choice of colors, I've got an SD TV (CRT 16/9) and seeing the blue frame around the selected day or seeing the recording mode (once, every week etc) is really difficult, the color blue is too light, I'd prefer red or bright yellow

Concerning the disappearance of the weekly schedules, I noticed it too but not on every oen of them. Oddly there is one that sticks there !

Just my own 2 cents, maybe Dvico appreciates users feedback although there's nothing on there site to do so except Q&A

[Known Issues]
[PVR PART]

1. Dual-recording is not possible yet. We found some performance issues, something to do with CPU speed. We’re still trying to make it work, but not sure.

[Graeme]

It's not possible to set up a scheduled recording where the start date is not in the current month. ie when the next month (eg august) is selected at the start of the scheduling wizard, it's not possible to select a date

[Graeme]

When going to the list of scheduled recordings, not all are shown until a new recording is added. eg

1. show list of scheduled recordings, only M-F recording is shown (although others have been created earlier)
2. add a new scheduled recording
3. return to list of sheduled recordings, new scheduled item is shown as well as items save earlier but not displayed at 1.

[Graeme]

Also possible to create duplicated and overlapping schedules.

[Graeme]

Is it possible to go back to a previous version of the firmware? I've just tried to go back to version 1.5.4 (unstable but the scheduler works) but it says that it not a valid firmware file

[maestroz]

Something else I've noticed with the new scheduler is that sometimes the recording doesn't stop on time.
Recording keeps going till you stop the recording manually (I recorded more than 8 hrs several times already !)
The new scheduler seems to be quite buggy

Graeme, about restoring an old FW maybe you can try the safe mode procedure, here
