Q230 software update

[cjk09]

Hi,

I have a 2TB SkyQ box running Q220.000.23.00L. I believe there is a newer Q230 version available that I've tried to force download with no success. Is this software being rolled out gradually and is there a way I can get it quicker? Thanks

hi @cjk09 

It takes several weeks before all boxes get newer versions - once the majority have it is made available for manual download but I don't think we are at that point yet

Any particular reason you are wanting the newer version - is something failing ?

Hi @nigea99,

I feed the JSon data from 9006/as/pvr?limit=1000&offset=0 into a spreadsheet. There was a change to the format in Q220 which is reverted in Q230.

I don't understand the gobbledygook you've posted either. You won't be able to force an update until the majority of Sky Q customers have been updated. I'm still on Q200 here. I'm afraid you'll have to be patient.

I think it is just extracting the Recordings info from the box (which does contain more info than is displayed)

@Invisiblename @Daniel0210 @nigea99 

GET /as/pvr?limit=1000&offset=0 – Return the first 1000 recorded programs on the Sky Q box. This includes pushed on demand content, box sets and recordings.

I've just spotted my typo … I'm on Q220.

It's a way of extracting recording data to a spreadsheet I designed years ago. @cjk09 thinks the JSON format may have changed with Q220, although I'm not convinced.

@Hi @tarbat,

Can I send you a copy of my JSON data so that you can run it through your spreadsheet?

What changes come with the above software update please, anything interesting?

Not really.

I notice the Q230 must have started at the beginning of September maybe earlier, however two months on I still don't have it, and I did try today to do a software update to see if I could do it myself but to no avail.  

I understand there isn't a lot of interest that has changed, and that it is gradually rolled out, but what is frustrating me is that I started SkyQ from virtually the day it started, and despite the innumerable updates since then I am always among the very last to get it.  Why is that, why don't Sky mix it up a bit so it is more evenly shared out as to who gets the updates first?

Does anyone know please? 

[Super+Anthony]

@Stephen+Mourton I also don't have it

[Stephen+Mourton]

@Super+Anthony  I appreciate others may not still have it although two months seems a long time to roll it out.

My point in particular is every update I am among the last to get it, is that the same with you?
