    FIJI Has been Released!

    -I just got this email-


    Fiji, officially known as Windows Media Center TV Pack 2008, has Released! The input from Self Host testers has been invaluable to this product and the team would like to thank each of you for your bug reports and feedback.

    As the release team is taking a much needed break, our next focus will be to post the final build onto the Products servers. Please check the newsgroups for updates. Once the build is live, we will notify you.

    Lovely!

    Now, how to get it and who's 'brave' enough to try it?

    I got it a few days ago, came down in a heavy rain.

    Haven't tried it yet.

    I'll give it a go - where/how do I get it?

    *I presume I am allowed to use/get it as a Windows Vista Home Premium owner*

    If you do get your hands on it, I would STRONGLY advise against installing on your main VMC because:

    1. Neither IceTv or FreeEPG (& variations) work with it yet;
    2. The current EIT data isn't great & there's no SBS;
    3. If the release candidate is anything to go by, it becomes a fresh install.

    Yep, I'll be waiting for Ice to fix their guide for Vista before I upgrade. SBS won't be doing 7 days over EIT until around December.

    I also won't upgrade if it requires a fresh install, that's a joke. There's nothing in it (reportedly) that I really need.

    Most updates are nuts & bolts - it's mainly groundwork for the Windows 7 version. There will be some very disappointed people in the next few days.
