Re: Q230 software update

Skys updates have had little to no user impact in around 3 or 4 years. 
no new features or improvements 
Sky don't appear to care about Sky Q anymore 

if you don't have glass or stream you don't count

sky woukd love all our hard drives to die simultaneously so everyone is forced to ditch the decent-ish Sky product for the duff lazy one.

Re: Q230 software update

@seandrews @There used to be a site that did list the changes however small, after all the update must do something.  I can't make out if it's my imagination but I could swear there is a slight improvement in the picture quality.

Re: Q230 software update

I think @Stephen+Mourton is right though. I did the update and it does look brighter! It would be good to know the updates though

Re: Q230 software update

@Super+Anthony @There is definitely something different.  One very noticeable one is when you are watching something in UHD and you switch back to the home menu previously the blue background changed from a darker blue to very light blue, this has now changed.  Although it is still a different shade the contrast between the two is less obvious.

@Stephen+Mourton 

Not sure what you're not agreeing with? (I see you've now deleted that comment). I'm still on Q220 and won't be forcing an update. It'll appear when it appears. The update won't be anything significant.

Re: Q230 software update

@Daniel0210 I was agreeing that the picture looks brighter.  I appreciate there are only very minor changes these days but that is my observation, plus I tried a forced update two days ago and it worked..

Re: Q230 software update

@Stephen+Mourtonsame with me. I forced the update yesterday and it came through. I guess everyone has a different view about things, and thats how it should be.But I do agree with the brightness as mentioned. It would be great if there was a site that showed you all the changes

Re: Q230 software update

That's the one. It would be great if Sky could go back to updating it as it was so useful
