Hi all,

FW v0.14.104 is available now.

Please share your experiences with this new SW version here in this topic.

- IMPORTANT: 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.


Changelog:

• HbbTV application is not working. (Only applicable to country, Czech Republic)
• USB recording resume function is not working.
• TV turns off and on by itself when EasyLink is enabled (more info here: http://www.supportforum.philips.com/...t&goto=newpost)

Hi,

sorry - i was not clear... you don't need 14.101 - it's sufficient to install 14.104 directly...

Well, I did not observe any improvement in the LD. Everything is exactly as in the FW 101. WHAT do share is that this far from 9955.

Hi,

The update does not change much, but when i change the tv to ISF night the image flashing is less noticable. I hope Philips will fix the flashing image problem.
I'm thinking about selling the tv a long time now. When I look at my Samsung tv from 3 years old, it has a better image, especially in 3D.

I only see the described behaviour when the video is not HD (thus only on SD material). Do you also see flashes when you watch HD content?

[jacmania]

yes only when I watch a blu ray movie

with normal tv or divx no problem

Strange, I think we're taking about different things. How do those "flashes" look like?
