I just tried to reload 10E8 from the last install of 10F1, which made my R15-500 unstable. I got 10F4. I thought this must have been a mistake and tried the force download again still 10F4. Is this a fix for 10F1 or am I getting a err. I am located in San Diego, Ca.
Download Version 10F4

I forced an update and got it also. I'm in central Texas so I assume it must be open to anyone. We'll see how this one works.

*10F4*
Trick play is still very sluggish compared to 10E8. Exiting from FFX3 with the 'jump back' button still runs past at a minimum of 30 seconds, which makes it unusable to skip commercials with FFX3. FFX3 worked fine for me in past versions.
'Jump back' is still slightly less than 4 seconds. It NEEDS to be longer than 4 seconds, especially with the sluggish response. Press the button, wait a second or two for a response, then jump back 4 seconds for a net of -2 or -3 seconds. Nearly worthless.
The response time to pull up the 'My Playlist' is quicker than in 10F1- but still slow.
Back to the drawing board. Get the trick play figured out before pushing 10F4. It's a step back from 10E8 in my opinion.

I do not have release notes for F4, as I don't know if it was intended to be a consumer update
One thing to note... the ONLY way to get 10F4 is via the forced update method. It is not being pushed to commercial users

When there is a general release for the R-15 500 (which has the largest user base), the R15-300 and the R15-100 will have their corresponding builds.rgraham541 said:

Anyone who has the new update does the fan run all the time now? I wondering if the 100 had that built into it's build and maybe the put a software fix to have the fan on all the time now.

I totally agree with Halo's post.In my opinion, if you're relatively happy with 10E8 Do Not force a download for 10F4. It's very sluggish.

I forced 10F1 a while ago and glad they pulled it since the trick play buttons were lagging, with Halo's report of them still lagging in 10F4 I will not force this one and hope it doesnt get pushed to us. I dont wany any 'improvements' that are going to slow down anything.

A couple of observations on 10F4 so far.
Using Mark & Delete in MyPlaylist is MUCH faster. I cleaned out many recordings today and expected it to take the normal 5 minutes or so and it was done when I looked up. Maybe a minute.
Moving SLs around in the Prioritizer is also MUCH faster than F1 was. 1-2 seconds now versus 5 seconds on F1.
However, I have run across a bug that you only run into when you press the wrong remote button. I was changing the Episode Type in an SL. When the list was expanded I pressed the Right Arrow key (which shouldn't be allowed) and the values on the SL screen disappeared and I couldn't do anything other than use the BACK or EXIT button. Checking some more it appears the pressing the Right Arrow in any of those fields in the SL edit screen causes the same problem. Once I made that mistake I could no longer edit SLs. I needed to RESET the unit. So don't try this unless you're prepared to RESET your unit.

Thank god. I swear the mark and delete had gotten slower since the last or second to last release.Wolffpack said:

I keep reading alot about people forcing updates, how do you do that? The latest update I got was 10E8 on Oct.26. Also I read somewhere on here that a update changed My Vod to My Playlist , what update was that?

You reset the box then when you see the first bluse screen push 02468 on your remote and NOTHING else. Just let it sit and you should then see a screen saying it found a new version and is downloading it. The number it shows seems to mean little, you will be able to tell after the box boots up what version you have. I tried a farced update a couple times and no go for me here in FL.webber9966 said:
