@Ratchet I currently have the 7th July 08 version V1.0.2
I found that the later versions caused problems such as no preview on EPG and an inability to hold a Favourites selection.
Thanks Ratchet
I have the HD Passion+ and the latest firmware for that is July 7th 2008 which I have installed.
I did try the Passion+ HD firmware until I realised it was a different STB :confused:
"Let's find a way to confuse customers"
A couple of weeks ago my HD Passion+ decided to crash and reboot on selecting BBC HD.
I have tried the reload of firmware etc as outlined above with no luck.
I don't currently have an HD TV so no great loss at the moment.
Has anything changed on BBC HD to cause this as nothing has changed on my STB.
With regards to two downloads appearing on one page. This is not unusual as the previous download is offered if the new one fails for some reason. This is the case with me as I downloaded and installed the latest file which caused problems with my box and did nothing to improve the EPG as...
Hi Tony
The file I mentioned is not for my box. Fortec confuse things by having 2 HD passion boxes, one + and one not. The October download appears to be for the HD passion NOT the HD Passion+. I have tried downloading and installing it a few times and each time it screws up features on my box...
Thanks Howard but unfortunately I can't get anything on 7 day EPG.
The 31st October firmware upgrade on Fortec Star's site, supposed to fix this problem, is for the Passion+ HD, I have the HD Passion+ which fails with the aforementioned update.
However I will leave the box on 7 day EPG overnight...
I downloaded the software labelled 'Firmware Passion+ HD Receiver ( October 31, 2008)'.
After installing it my receiver failed to work as before. When pressing the EPG button the preview box had the Fortec boot screen not the current programme. 7 day guide did not work at all and there were...
I'm getting a 404 page not found at

Anyone else getting the page ok?
Is it possible that the file stored there was found to be buggy ;)
Hi Andrew.
Yes I have used the timer facility with success.
I did format the drive Fat32 using the Passion+.
Have you tried recording a short piece (1 minute+) on a USB Memory Stick in the front USB socket. You could try a format on that to see if it works.

BTW Recording less than 30...
Just out of interest, as a newby I bought the Maplin HD kit referred to in this thread. As there were no dish instructions included I contacted Maplin who pointed me at their site for a download.
The diagrams bore little resemblance to the dish I had in the box so I contacted Maplin again and...
Hi Roy
V1.01 build 119 is what I tried (easily Googled).
Admittedly it was a brief try and I must have another go probably paying more attention.
I uploaded the channel data onto a memory stick, rearranged some channels, dumped it back to the memory stick and downloaded it back to the Passion...
