WARNING

Upgrading a player with an official or unofficial firmware is always a risk for your player !
If your CD is bad burned, too old, or your burner don't burn correctly or the current line is suddenly interrupted during the upgrade, etc. your take the risk to fail the upgrade and loose your player.

So in all cases, this softwares are plusblihed "as is" and you're the only one responsible for the risk you're going to take.

Concerning unofficial firmwares, you take the risk to do not be able to send your player to After Sales Service Department, depending on the kind of failure (if they can see the firmware is not official: garanty is canceled). So please think of it before upgrading.

Moreover, please take the time TO READ THE UGPRADE GUIDES! Large majority of people who do not achieve to upgrade their player did not read carrefully the guide, so... make a small effort please!

If you do not agree with this or do not understand my english terms, then JUST DON'T USE THESE FIRMWARES!

  • SRT encoded with codepage 1250 (Central Europe) will be supported
  • The temporal delay will be fixed (less than 1/2 sec before)

    Setup, saving parameters:
  • General volume
  • EQ Type and Sound Field

    Others:
  • OGM are now playable (was not in 1109 and was buggy in 0802)
  • OGM (XVID + OGG), always renamed in AVI won't have anymore jerks or audio shift
  • Some information on MP3 are displayed in the right part of the screen (ID3 tags, but they can be truncated))
  • More languages will be recognized and displayed on commercial DVD
  • ... and the same improvements included in 1109 firmware (see below)

    ATTENTION Regression (with regard to 0802/1109) :
  • Tone problem, you have to press 1 time the "#" and "b" to get a good sound (else it's distorded)
