    Of course some things would be different, such as the specs and etc, but the options and setups should be the same in most cases and similar in other cases.

Update notice appeared onscreen.
To download the update and a reboot took approx 25 seconds.
Then the Installation started which took approx 2 minutes, with another reboot included.
Booted up onto Home screen.

First thing checked was if my Favorites were still intact showing on the Home Screen, which they were. At first they were not there, but I had left it on connection portal that had no favorites, so switched to other portal and yes favs are intact as they were :)

I see that restore option has been disabled, which is good idea for now.
I dare not check it thou :eek:

I did still get that small 'Alarm Received' notice upon Home screen opening.

I can now also delete recordings from HDD.
I do not record things but did do some testing awhile ago and never could delete any recording made at the time.
There was also an issue with playback. But I never checked that and now I deleted the recordings so I will have to redo that ... ooops,, lol

And please tell aboutbuzz that the m3u hardcopy file thing I had been discussing with him seems to be fixed correct now.
They did fix it initialing, if you remember NBS I had been discussing it with you and aboutbuzz ?
But after some more testing I found out it still needed work. So I told aboutbuzz about it again.
AND Now it seems that work has been done and works a-ok :)
Tell him well done !!

No wait, I can tell him (I will report it on his open thread)
:)

cool beans !!
