TV Model: 40PFL5507H/12
Previous Firmware: 0.96

Negative:
- Using a favorites list to show a selection of re-ordered unencrypted DVB-C channels (UPC Netherlands). This firmware (and so did 0.96) keeps forgetting that I have selected favorites and will show all channels. If I go into the menu favorites still seems to be selected. After selecting it again I will see my fav list. The software will revert into showing all channels within one or two days. Very annoying and a bit silly.

+ Better sound quality
+

Negative:
- I've a lot of problems with my film collection... they're stored in an hard disk connected to my DLNA capable router... everything was fine with 00.96, but now the tv can't read some (working!) avi compressed films or freezes during the playback of some mp4/h264!
- Slow in SmartTV functions
- Still can't use the android app remote keyboard function to write inside the Youtube seach bar!

Philips,

I would really appreciate some kind of response. Is it a known problem? Are you working on a fix? Or is there a workaround? Thank you.
