MultiChoice announced that updated software for the 1110 single view decoder is now available for download.

This new software has stability improvements, but also includes the following changes :
• Full widescreen support
• African Language Soundtrack support
• A change in the default UHF Frequency (from 46 to 63)
• Increase in the number of configurable networks (from 6 to 18)
• A software alert when powering up the decoder (if newer software is available)
• Changes to XtraView...

If you experience any heartbeat problems with extra view, with an installation involving a “plasma television”, be advised that the problem may be  radiation from the plasma screen. Try to isolate the plasma television or the DSTV Decoder.

I am sure that you all have also battled with getting your x-tra view installations to work like indicated in the Multichoice diagrams. When both decoders are connected to RF-out you have the optimal benefits;

                                        * Clear picture on both decoders on any tv in the house. (2x decs in same room).

                                        * No blaster needed only tv-links can be used for neatness.

                                        * Control both decoders...
