HbbTV

[fumbduck]

Question for the experts (or anyone else that knows)
Does anyone know if the latest BlackHole firmware for the Duo or Duo2 is HbbTV 1.5 enabled?
It seems here in oz they have just implemented Freeview which uses HbbTV 1.5.
I've tried on both my Duo and Duo2 to see if it would work but no luck sofar.
Not sure what version of HbbTV you guys have in Europe.
I also noticed that my AGC rate using the terrestrial plugin tuner only hovers between 2 - 10 %
Could this marginal reception rate be my downfall or is our Freeview just a different version of HbbTV and not compatible?

No mate I have a Duo2 and enabled Hbb TV and so far I have no luck too with Hbb TV. We need to investigate this because If we can get FreeView Plus working on our Duo2's it will be a big plus for us. I've only had my duo2 working for a week and have a lot to understand with these boxes. As for signal Strength I forget what mine is (Away for the moment) but its strong so that's not your problem
