RE: Philips DVDR610 Fan Cure & Update

The advice I had from Philips CS was to keep an eye on the site for update.
yesteday i noticed it seem to quite major cause ther was all sorts of language variants, which havnt been there before. It`s not easy to tell what is what but if you download the zip file and explode it..you can see the dates of the files..in this case they are 13th October. Prior to that i think it was 14th of Sept. So I gueesed I was on a winner! So far it seems fine although I dont have a setup as complex as some people who have contributed here to this site. i.e. no sky boxes. TIVOs etc..just a TV,Video and DVDR610. But I think i am happy now!

RE: Philips DVDR610 Fan Cure

Hi
I bought a DVDR610 just over a month ago and have observed the fan problems too.
Philips customer support came clean on this and said a Firmware fix would be introduced. (Actually since I bought the machine the Firmware file has beeen updated 3 times!) Well today another one appeared on the website...and it seems to work.

However a little niggle seems to have been introduced. My original firmware allowed the full channel description to scroll across the display e.g. .....BBC 1...now i get just a staic display BBC. it is now impossible to differentiate between BBC1 and BBC2 on the front display (although the ON Screen dsiplay reports this info.)
