Because

Waiting 4 an update because the app reboots every 20 minutes !
(Very inconvienend during recording or playback)
In the night it does selfmaintenance, and sometimes at daytime.
Verrry spooky :shock:
 
Dear All,
We are awaiting for the final stage concerning certificaiton process. We hope this will be completed within the coming 3-4 working days. Once completed, Ziggo should confirm the date when the S/W will be made available for general distribution.

Samsung STB Team
 
We are pleased to announce that that a new software release is undergoing certification (version 577) this release is planned to be made available within week 43 (24th - 28th Oct) and the below mentioned issues and features will be included:
Yesterday i made a posting with mine concern that the update wont come to us this week. It's been removed without reason, even after mailing to the forum owners they did not give anny reason why my posting was deleted. Maybe because i was right? Today.... the next delay is announced #fail :no:
 
known issue? When forwarding x2 and pressing play in a recording it skips seconds

Dear all,

Since approx 2 weeks (a little less, I can still return it) I'm the owner of the C7140A. I'm currently in doubt if I should return the machine. Mainly because of the following issue:

I have a serious issue with the forwarding in a recording, which I don't recognise in the thread with fixes or open items:

I especially experience it during a football game:
I record it and watch it later.
If the ball goes out for a throw I usually forward the recording x2. When the player is ready to throw I press play.
If I press play the game skips seconds, sometimes even 5, sometimes none. (it's easily reproduced, pressing play shows the time skipping immidiately in a soccer game with the time displayed). Like this it's totally useless to forward a recorded soccer game :/

Also of you reverse the recording it suggests to be at one place, but in fact it reversed you alot more. Seems the screen is not reversing as the machine is telling it too.
But for me this is less important: As if issue 1 is solved I don;t have to use issue 2 ;-)

Regarding these issue(s) I have 2 questions:
- Are you familiar with it as well?
- Are these being solved with this coming update?

I'm really looking forward to hearing from you, as I could still return the machine and make a different choice.

Thanks in advance.

Greetings Kurt
 
FFW and so on

Sorry Kurt, mine does it as well.
That 's why I am desperate for a C7140A FW update.

Don't know exactly of the new FW will fix it.
But you might read some of it in the first posting of Samsung STB.

Soon, when all is well; I might buy a second C1740A.
If not, Humax 5050 or 5200 :wink:
 
To be honest

To all;
Must say that Humax 5050 and 5200 have there "problems" too.
The owners are also waiting for FW updates of there Humaxies.
 
I would return it

Hi Kurt,

I have my C7140 since March and am waiting for a software update since then.

Sansumg announced in January that issues would be resolved bu an update in May, but until now, nothing has come through.

I know an update is planned for the coming weeks, but it really does not address the major issues.
These are foreseen for an update in December.... Since it took them nearly a year to come out with a first update I would not count on it.

I wish I could still return mine. I wanted to return it, but since an update was promised for May I held on to it, with many regrets now...

Thanks Jeroen.
Sorry to hear it's not entirely to your liking as well.

I have to say:
None of these digital harddiskrecorders works flawlessly, like Fantastic said.
I have to figure out which bugs the 5050 has...
But I'm familiar with the Topfield recorder coming with Digitenne and it's flaws.
Also heard the UPC box has the same errors as the Samsung decoder.

We'll see. I warned the BCC that I'm unsure if the Humax is what I want. So asked them to keep my unpacked Samsung box save, just incase......

I'm expecting to pick the Humax up on wensday, we'll see.

It would ofcourse help greatly if Samsung would point out that the forwarding and reversing issue would be solved, but guess not :/

I'm looking forward to your first impressions regarding those when you got the update.

Grtz Kurt

Hello Kurt,
We are unaware of this issue that you have mentioned. As stated we are awaiting for the S/W v577 to be released. It has passed its certification process.... It just takes time for it to be available.

Samsung STB Team
