Hi need help please I have recieved an e-mail from DSTV stating that Dstv on Demand is now available on the HD PVR2P. However the software did not download to my PVR and when going to DSD upgrade to download the latest software I encountered a error 0x080030088 something like that which prevent the download from being completed. Phone Multichoice yesterday they say I must check this morning still the same condition. What else could be the problem preventing the software to download succesfully?

Thanks

Hi thanks for the response anway I did following instructions below and still it does not work keeps on getting that annoying error 0x80030038 even after reboot. I would appear that this HD PVR never downloaded any software since I got it, because the loader version is still on 3/2 and for DSTV on Demand the loader version must be 8/2 Phoned Multichoice again this morning they say I must bring it in and luckily it's still under warranty.

HD PVR Software
Latest Software (IS7 Only)
To check that your HD PVR decoder has the latest software, press TV GUIDE. If the last menu item is DStv On Demand, your HD PVR has the latest software!

To check the loader version – press MENU, select Information Central, select Hardware Status, press RIGHT arrow twice (to display the Loader Status screen). Check the value for “Load Ver / Var” on line 3.

■For the UEC HD PVR, the latest software is 18 / 2
■For the Pace HD PVR, the latest software is 32 / 2
■For the Pace HD PVR 2P, the latest software is 8 / 2
If your HD PVR does not have the latest software, please follow the steps below to download the software :

■Ensure that you have no recordings in progress and none scheduled for the next 30 minutes.
■Reboot the decoder. Wait for full video & audio to resume.
■Press MENU to go to the Decoder Menu
■Select Advanced Options
■Enter 9949
■Select DSD Upgrade
■Wait for the RED button to appear, then press RED and follow the onscreen instructions.
Warning! Do not interrupt the download process (which could take up to 30 minutes) and wait for full video & audio to resume.
 
Do you have any issues recording on the decoder?
How is the decoder connected to the dish, LNB type/number of cables?
Does your 8 day TV guide work?
 
No problem with recoding a program on the PVR
Yes the 8 day tv guide is working
Connection:Twin LNB with 3 cables for 3 tv sets (main living room, extra view to cottage room and rca cable to bedroom)
 
Then definitely take it in, the software will download on LNB2 so if that's working for other functions then it should work for software downloads
