Need advice on SCAN 2000 DVD UPGRADE

Duncan (Harmless) posted this on Friday, 24th November 2000, 19:22

Can anyone help me? perhaps i`m missing something in the pigeon english text files that accompany the firmware upgrades (Both 180 and 191)

I currently have a player with version 164 and am experiencing lock-ups usually 1 second into mp3`s, loss of mp3 file info on the scrolling line at the bottom of the screen and a few other related problems.

nelly has kindly sent me both firmware upgrade files very promptly but when I insert the written CD into the DVD I either get 00:08 in the VFD and can only try to play the file?! when the CD is written as mode1/XA
If I write the upgrade as a mode1 standard CD, the disk is just ejected and I never get the `WRITING` OSD message.

You have to write the CD as a data CD and close it.
It worked just fine for me - I used EZCD 4.05

Just checking (honest)

How can you check your current firmware version number

and

Is the upgrade the new one to disable macrovision as I`m hoping thats whats causing the flashing during the dark areas of "The Matrix"
