SC2000 - Firmware testing

Okay Okay. I`ve just spent the past 30 mins reading all the msgs from people with problems. I get the distinct impression that no real testing of these firmware upgrades ever takes place.

Surely If you fix something, you perform regression tests to make sure that it won`t impact on any other features of the software? It seems to me that one firmware version fixes one problem, but creates another, and nobody actually notices this when (if?) they test it. It should be fairly straighforward. There is a specification. You test that everything works as the spec says it should. If it doesn`t, you sort it out.

It`s a no win situation. I`ve been pretty happy with my SC2000, with the exception of the unplayable discs, and not accessing secret menus (see my previous message). Nelley, please tell whoever sends you the firmware updates to TEST them first!

I feel much better now. Off to watch a video...
