New F5S Software Released.

[bbb_uk]

does the f5s firmware work on f5 boxes too?

No, it's only for F5s and F3s

[klootzaak]

You cannot use a USB hub on these receivers it will not be detected, your option is to hardwire ethernet and run USB stick as normal

You definitely can (on the F5 at least), I have my usb running through one as I type this.

What's the chances of this firmware being released for the F5 ?

Thanks

I have the skybox F3 and get the error message 'hardware mismatch' when I attempt this! Any ideas what im doing wrong?
Ive downloaded the file and stuck it in the root of my usb drive.

This software is for the F3S not the F3.

Ahh right! So is the F3 an older model?

Yes, only slightly. There is very little difference except display on box between the 's' version and normal version.

The manufacturer could possibly release this firmware for the normal versions as well but at a guess they probably wont.

Might have to sell my old F3 then. An F3s which could do 7 day EPG with the help a USB stick for about ?50 would be spot on!

The Epg app on the firmware is as good as useless as has been posted, you are stuck with a random looking channel list that isn't any easier than using a smartphone tv listing app.
shame as a decent Epg is the only thing letting this box down(having to press the back button after selecting a channel aside!)

Setanta and Setanta Ireland channels wont work for me on my F3s Skybox, they work fine on my Blade bm7000 box. Will upgrading my F3s box to this software sort this out for me? Id appreciate any advice on this issue, cheers

No, update your channel list.

At the moment this is nothing more than a TV guide. There is no link whatsoever to channel lists.

If, in a future firmware release it can be linked to channel lists then it would be great mod but at the moment it ain't worth buying a new box just for this.
