Fetch TV

Ive never had these issues with my Fetch box. Perhaps a random reset after an upgrade but for the most part all good touches wood

Thats probably enough. One issue it does have is the box does its own restarts but instead of happening when you’re not using it sometimes, they can happen at any time and manually doing is the only work around.

I also had these issues but it seems to have been fixed with the recent software upgrade to 4.4.2 Eagle Bay.

It’s a much smoother and better interface than the previous version.

An updated version of Fetch is coming!

As a valued Fetch Insider, you get exclusive early access to try our improved interface before it officially rolls out.

What’s new in this update:

  • More Apps : Additional apps* for download available on Gen 4 devices, including Spotify, Twitch and NBA League Pass, and improvements to the apps experience on Gen 5 devices.
  • Infobar enhancements : Minor adjustments to the Infobar look, including the addition of time, and removal of Reverse Infobar to avoid clutter.
  • Shortcut to Recordings: Pressing the (R) button while hovered on the Home Menu tab now takes you to access the Recordings menu**. Whilst you’re in Recordings, you may also notice minor visual enhancements.
  • Plus, general app and performance enhancements.

We’d love for you to test it out and we’re looking for your honest feedback so share what you love and what could be better with us via our survey. In return, you will have the chance to be rewarded with 2 Movie Rental Credits^ (simply submit at least one survey response).

Here’s how to get started:

  • Next week, your Fetch device(s) will automatically update to the new interface. If it doesn’t, simply reboot it by pressing the on/off button and then the blue button on your Fetch remote to complete the upgrade.
  • Once that’s done, start exploring to see what’s changed. We’ll send the survey form once your device is updated so you can share any issues you face as you use it.
  • Submit your feedback before 16 June for your chance to be rewarded with 2 Movie Rental Credits^ .

Note: The Gen 3 Mini will not receive this update so if you have one, you can continue to use it as you normally would.

Any info on this? Would it be accessible via a fetch subscription only or will users with already existing accounts be able to log in?

I was sent this today so finally I get to test out something and hopefully not break my Fetch in the process. lol

Good to see Telstra putting time and effort into making Fetch a better product.

The current version is easily the best it’s ever been, despite some issues still remaining.

The only drawbacks are sometimes the TV guide freezes when you scroll through the next 7 days, and when you watch a program that has played within the last 24 hours on the fetch pay-to-watch channels, the rewind and fast forward function sometimes doesn’t work as it should. If you hit pause and then resume watching it, it sometimes freezes and you have to leave the channel and go back into it again and fast forward to the point where it froze, to resume watching it.

Software update to Flinders Bay 4.5 rolled out today.
