| | Posted: | | | | The new firmware can be found here. US is at version 1.8, Europe and Asia are at 1.3. "Playability and Stability" are listed as the improvements in the new versions. Regards | | | View my collection at http://www.chriskepolis.be/home/dvd.htm

| | Posted: | | | | Up until version 1.2, I had an issue when I fast forwarded a movie, it resulted in a cracking sound send through the HDMI to the amplifier. It sounded like a short circuit.
Upon first quick testing (only tested 2 discs), I didn't have the issue, so far...
Now if they only would change the white side bars with 4:3 content to black, because the white is too distracting. | | | View my collection at http://www.chriskepolis.be/home/dvd.htm

| | Posted: | | | | I might have expressed my self wrong. It doesn't make the player region free. All regions got a firmware update. Although some claim the SD-DVD side can be made region free by sending a code to the device using a special remote or a pc with an infrared port. I read the same code is valid for all panasonic DVD-players. You can find more info hereand hereI haven't tested it myself, so I can't guarantee the code will work. | | | View my collection at http://www.chriskepolis.be/home/dvd.htm

| | Posted: | | | | I wish Panasonic would handle these updates like Toshiba did with my A35. With them I got a notice and in two cases, a CD-ROM with the update was sent to me NO CHARGE without my even asking for it! With panasonic no such customer service. I'm at ver. 1.6 here in the US. I guess I missed the last update. They really should do something about notifying their customers, jerks!   |

I just tried the US firmware, download is already at 30%, so it's working fine. For some odd reason, this download doesn't seem to work with Foxfire. I used IE and had no problem. | | | | Hal |
