I have updated. The only change I found during a quick look was QuikFlix has been added.

Quickflix does not appear to have much of a selection of movies or tv shows, so I would not get too excited.

It has locked up once since the update, but I restarted ithe Humax and it has been fine since then.

In English it means:
- They changed the brand of web browser that TV Portal uses. The TV Portal is just a web page on a server somewhere, so the Humax needs a web browser to be able to access the TV Portal. The change was probably needed for Quickflix or for the SBS On Demand bug fix.
- They added the Quickflix movie service to the TV Portal.
- They fixed the bug where the front display would go blank in standby with Power Saving In Standby set to Off. VFD = Vacuum Flouro Display
