Software numbers and Change list



All I can say is: 'Give a man a fish...'



Here's some info on the changes:



Gateway = 7.0.1b.17G5BR-P.348041

Portal ... = 7.0.1b.17X5R-P.348041



Installer Tool Diagnostics Dashboard

- These tools will give installers better visibility into the specific installation steps

Galaxie Title/Track/Artist Display

- Track and Artist info will now display for user’s information

- This doesn’t resolve the issue where the TTA overlay persists after changing channels – that will come in a future upgrade.

Screen Saver Timeout configured via portal registry

-The default setting for the screen saver to come on will be after 12 hours of inactivity on the remote.

- Future upgrades will have user-customizable settings for this feature



Key Bug Fixes :



Gateway 5102 and 5103 error code stability improvements

- This should improve the amount of times a customer sees “no Gateway Found” or “Cannot communicate with Gateway” messages

- This is not a 100% fix, this is the first step in fixing some of the causes

Trick Mode (PVR commands – FFWD, REW, PAUSE, PLAY, etc) stability improvements

- This should improve the experience, but is not a full fix of all trick mode issues. The 2 addressed in this upgrade are:

Pressing PAUSE during live TV viewing repeatedly can cause the Portal to stop responding

Trick mode controls (FFWD, REW, PLAY, etc) can take several seconds to respond

Grid Guide focus selection to currently tuned channel

- When you’re watching a channel, and hit GUIDE button, it will highlight/begin at the channel you’re currently tuned to, rather than the last one you browsed on, as it does currently.







Personally, I think that last one is a huge mistake. There was no problem with leaving it the way it was before. Now if I hit the wrong button I have to start navigating through the crappy grid guide again.
