Nice all that new firmware's that are coming out.
But it still doesn't solve my 3 bigest problem.
1. The audio drops when watching TV broadcast with AC3 listining thru my audio reciever connected with optical cable. I think this is a real hardware problem in the TV of the 2011 models and can't be solved thru firmware.
2. USB-recording is unstable. Using fast forward or reverse is unstable. Sometimes get the message that it is not possible to record.
3. Watching bluray with my bluray-player when recording is not possible. So when recording the TV is almost useless. But i already heard that it is a hardware problem and never gone to be possible.

Very likely. I owned a 52PFL5605H12 which had audio drop outs via HDMI and S/PDIF (by the way, the P stands for Philips!) when the audio stream was AC-3. Philips unsuccessfully tried to repair the TV several times but the drop outs remained. Eventually the 52PFL5605H12 was replaced by a 55PFL6606K02 and the drop outs went away.

7606k/02
All of the bugs of 0.97.000 firmware are still there! Look under my post of the 0.97.000 firmware! Look at the bottom!
Now 098.000 seems to be more unstable!
-at first start often no text in the TVGuide. (new bug)
-often crashes after using NetTV Apps like youtube and videociety, (old bug) sometimes crash is late after using NetTV: (new bug)
Can watch TV and after switching two channels first only black screen, then all channel are gone: TV said, similiar in english: "No Channel there" -> When I switch to HDMI 1 and then back again to SAT, all channels are back!!! (new bug)
---------------------------------------
My post for the ...97.000 Firmware: Same in 98.000!!!
Hello!
Have two of the 7606/k 02 now with 014.097.000 but same in 014.096.000.
No more information in "what´s on" after using NetTV with Videociety and after watching USB-Recording.
Only in 097.000: Sometimes not possible to change channels, no reaktion. Remote ist ok. LED shows activity! Same with Cable DVB-C and DVB-S!
A lot of german channels can´t be recognize of the TV Guide.
I m still missing: A message on the screen when i am using 3D content for fast switching the mode to 3D like in older firmware!!!
I have much more wishes like others. But i give up, that Philips will ever recognize the wishes of the users :-((
Examples:
-fast forwarding/rewinding on USB recording
-direct access for "What´s on" (with the blue button on remote?) and not so much black on the sceen, more transparency to see the picture in the background
-autodedect for 3D material
-more stability and speed (thats better but not good enough) using browsing internet it a joke.
-watching Bluray over hdmi and USB recording at the same time
-a good working iphone app (no changing channels in the app of the programmguide of the app)
-to show pictures on the TV with the app, with every picture the message: picture is shown on the TV, (Terrible!) And why is the localisation needed? Not good.
-When can i use thephilips iphone app to typ in words (example in the search function of the youtube app, or others)?
And always on new firmware: some bugs go and other comes.
I hope Philips will do a good job in the future.Last edited by Jason6; 05-17-2012 at 07:31 PM.

Wow, I just read your posts and I guess I'm not the only one who's disappointed by quality of the TV's software...
Anyway, I've encountered an unreported issue :
- When you plug a computer to your TV-Screen thanks to an HDMI connector, your TV-channels disappear (DVB-T) ! That's extremely annoying because you have to unplug the HDMI connector everytime you need to watch TV... Thanks in advance for doing something about that !!
I've noticed also most of the bugs reported in this forum, among them :
-slowness
-unexpected shut-down (which seems like a watchdog reboot to me)
-ridiculous EPG
-poor multimedia player : e.g. I tried to read an H264 encoded movie in an AVI container and it failed (black screen with sound) : seems like "off standard" resolutions are not properly displayed
-USB file browser may have been designed in the 70s... I mean, what one should do when he has a list of hundreds of files in a folder ? I'm spending 5 minutes to reach the desired file by pressing "DOWN" repetitively...
- Where is the "Go To" menu when we're playing a video file ? User should be able to reach a specific position in the movie by entering a timestamp
Most importantly, why are you not giving us feedbacks on what you're working on for the next version ? People keep adding complaints in here but we don't have any idea if they are read or not ! Why don't you take a poll with the relevant bugs listed in this thread and let us vote for the corrections we're waiting for ?
I wish that Philips support team is working hard to release a stable firmware soon... Even Funai have done better

Dear Support Team,
After a few days of testing 14.098, I can give you the following feedback (55PFL7606K/02):
- Easylink-Handshake works much better than before, but is still not perfect. About 4 of 5 times the initial connection to the HTS7111 soundbar works fine now, but 1 of 5 failes. On the soundbar display HDM ARC is shown, but sound comes still from the TV-speakers. Workaround: Switch off and on soundbar again.
- In EPG on some channels the first character of the channel seems to be missing, e. g. "HOENIX" instead of "PHOENIX". Furthermore, on this channels you cannot select any program for recording, a message "identifying channel" is shown in german language ("Kanal identifizieren"). Maybe that this is an issue of the EPG-server but not the firmware, I don't know.
- Sometimes, when changing sound volume, a window appears, showing "Anzeige über HDMI ausblenden" and "Status". The window is shown only a short moment and vanishes together with the volume symbol after changing the volume. This is only an optical issue. This issue can be solved by "hard" switching off the TV for about 20 sec. on the bottom switch.
Overall, the new firmware is an improvement from my point of view, escpecially with respect to the Easylink-Handshake, but there is still room for further improvements with respect to quality.
cp
EDIT:
With respect to the EPG-issue I detected, that it is possible to assign a channel manually to an EPG entry ("identify channel"). Together with a site reload and the "identify channel" functionality I got a working EPG again. But for some reason, some channels cannot be found with the channel-search of "identify channel" functionality, e. g. the german KiKA channel.Last edited by centpede; 05-20-2012 at 09:47 AM.

Additional to the other bugs->Found a new bug on 7606k/02 used with Sat:
Pause button on remote in timeshift function doesn't work. Only i use the play button pause works!
But recording in timeshift function only now starts! No older recording minutes there!
When programming USB Recording and the first recording starts and i want to programm another (what works), but the first recording stops and the record sign is still shown!
Thats not what im expected.

I have the same behavior. First with 14.096, fixed with 14.097 and now again with 14.098.
Older recordings are still present, but the number of them is no longer shown in the EPG-Overview. Select "Aufzeichnungen" in EPG and you will see your old recordings.

TV updated and as expected nothing changed.
Why should we continue to update the software if the original problem are still there?
- Full of bugs
- slow
- no info on screen when you switch channel
- poor sw usability...

During playback of a mkv files through DLNA server, when you press fast forward or rewind playback is blocking. And 'to reboot the TV.
