I think it's A TERRIBLE BAD IDEA to disable CVBS output!

Now I'm not going to be able to use my current sound system!!!

or only the video output is disabled?

Hi,

CVBS transmits only video signals...

Does anybody know if the new firmware will fix some of the actual problems this player has?

I've upgraded to this firmware, and now Smart TV is more unstable :-(

Haven't upgraded yet, but - as always - I'm curious to see if the new firmware will fix some of the more annoying problems. The last one did nothing to the freeze issue...

Is it possible to downgrade the firmware?

Is it possible to downgrade the firmware?

I doubt it.

Dear Users,

I regret to inform it is not possible to downgrade the firmware.

Please share with us any problems you have encountered after you upgraded the firmware.

@mortenkn Can you tell us more about your Smart TV unstable issue.

Kind regards,

About the new firmware:
At first Netflix was very unstable, but weirdly this has gone away.

The biggest issues are:
Often not able to turn off the unit. The display just says Stndby, and I have to find to power-chord and unplug it.

Also I bought this player because of the analogue L/R sound-output, so I was able to listen to webradio without turning the TV on. This is now almost impossible. Now I need to turn the TV on to play webreadio, and if I'm lucky the music continues on the L/R output when I turn the TV off.

I hope you can fix it, thank you!

Kind regards,

Morten
