However, with the DigiHome PVR80 at £100 or the larger PVR160 at £150 from Argos, there was no way on Earth I could have recommended the Toppy at £275. The DigiHome has an EPG which looks almost identical to EPGN, and can dual record. Of course no TAPs or USB, but the gap in features is not so great.

If you use the Winter Hill transmitter, you may need to do a manual scan of channel 62 (after the upgrade) in orderto get the BBC North West programmes instead of BBC Wales.

None of the original discovery work belongs to me.
As time has gone by, various notes have been added here based on feedback from people who've updated their boxes. As a result, the pagehas become a bit untidy and less easy to read. I do recommend that you read through it all in case there is something specific to your box.
- Please note that this update is done at your own risk. You could finish with an expensive brick.
- This procedure will NOT delete any existing recordings that you have on the PVR's Hard Drive.
- The 'Twin Record' update is no longer an option because of the way Freeview has changed with the recent retunes.
- You can get most versions of the firmware at www.futaura.co.uk
- The upgrade can be done with the PVR still connected to the TV or you can remove it to a location more convenient for your PC... it doesn'tneed to be connected to the TV or aerial.
Connecting the PVR80 to the Computer
You need a serial cable to connect between the RS232 socket on your PC and the RS232 socket on the back panel of the PVR80.The serial cable is a 'straight-through' 9-pin cable (pin 2 to pin 2, pin 3 to pin 3 etc.) with a male connector on one end and a female connector on the other. The end with the pins may have fixing screws or threaded bushes which you will need to remove to prevent themcatching on the PVR80 socket.
If your PC doesn't have an RS232 serial socket, you can use a USB converter cable. (Note the system requirements - a driver may not be available for Windows 7).
NOTE: Although I get emails from people telling me they've successfully updated the box with a USB-Serial adapter cable, I probably get as many telling me of problems. I guess alladapter cables are not the same and it has to be trial and error.
Someone who successfully used a USB-Serial cable writes:I would advise those using a USB-serial converter cable to get the latest and correct driver for their OS from the manufacturer. Check the device and vendor IDs from:
If the USB-serial converter cable is listed here, note the 4 alpha-numeric ID codes for the Vendor (VID_XXXX) and Product (PID_XXXX) under the 'PNP Device ID' heading. The hardware manufacturer information can then be obtained by entering the ID codes in the PCI Database:
There are usually direct links from here to the latest drivers from the manufacturer's website.
After installing the correct driver, the converter cable both installed correctly and updated the firmware in the DTR80.
It's also been reported that the following USB-serial converter works well:
It should be noted that most modern PCs without an external serial (COM) port may well have the hardware already installed on the motherboard andit may be possible to easily add a suitable socket 'riser' plate at the back of the computer. Alternatively, PCI RS232 cards are available to add a serial port provided you have a spare PCI socket on the motherboard. For laptops, a Serial Port CardBus PCMCIA Card mightbe more successful than a USB-Serial adapter cable - although I haven't tried this.
Download and Extract the firmware
After downloading the 5.7 firmware, extract the .bin,
file and save it on the Windows Desktop.Note
DigiHome DTR80: There are 2 versions of the DTR80. The first is a Vestel T810, which means it's essentially a PVR80. The later versions are Vestel T816. Check which version of the machine you have - either 'T810' or 'T816' will be on the barcode label on the underside of the machine beforedownloading the appropriate firmware.Note for Windows versions later than XP
