OPTIC TV UPGRADE

Wed Sept 21

Hi - My Optik service did a major upgrade itself tonight - and I am wondering what the upgrades are.  I can't find info anywhere on the Telus site.  Any ideas?  Thanks in advance!

  • If it's the set top box updates, normally they are just bug fixes.

  • In the menu under Settings/General/System Information look for the client build number. If it ends in 79 then you have the update.

      I don't even have the " client build number " in that folder. I do have " client version " which ends in .479 (RELEASE )

  • Mostly bug fixes and performance improvements. I think there was an enhancement with regards to HDMI functionality but you may not notice if you didn't have any issues previously.

     

    I like the fact that there aren't new bells and whistles. I want the existing functionality to work better before adding new features. More isn't necessarily better.

      One thing I noticed in the guide it now says new for first run programs

      Thanks! It interrupted the tv signal to announce the upgrade - it lasted 10 mins. I was hoping for some new bells and whistles!!
