Hi,

please share your experiences with this new SW version here in this topic. Channeling your input will make it easier for users to search and find relevant info.

Remarks

• Due to the global IT structure, there might be a delay in the uploading/synchronising of new SW releases (and their release notes). Please, have a little patience if you cannot immediately see the new files on the support web pages and try 1 or 2 days later.
• After upgrading your TV, it is necessary to perform a "cold start": after the TV is running again (after the update), shut down the TV, wait 2 minutes (till all components are shut down), unplug the TV from the mains (pull power cord) for a few minutes before starting again.
• WARNING: Never downgrade from 132.5.x. back to 108.8.x! 132.5.1 contains a new Standby-Software which is not compatible with the firmware 108.8 (108.8 does not contain the old Standby-Software). If you downgrade, your TV won't start anymore and you need a service intervention!

Changelog:

• Coloured lines or splash screen during start-up.
• Spontaneous switch off.
• Channel search problems (missing channels).
• No start-up of the TV.
• Slow menu navigation.
• Slow zapper ring across multiple channels.
• Frozen/blocked pictures.
• TV keeps detecting same HDMI device.
