Problem Hacking Philips DVDR880
I bought my DVDR880 yesterday. Great machine ! I tried to "hack" it unsing the Philips-750 hack but it doesn`t appear to work. I have:
- Downloaded Neo-Tek software and installed that + the IR code file on my palm pilot
- Switch DVD remote to "DVD Player"
- Press "dvd955multizon" key on palm pilot.
The 880 display seems to accept the "palm key" (it flashes...) but no "---" appear. I`ve tried it with disk in, disk out, player on player off. All without any luck.
Also: I spotted the "upgrade firmware" message in this DVD hack but I`m a bit nervous about that. Does anyone know how to find out what the current firmware version is before I upgrade it ?
Thanks a lot

RE: Problem Hacking Philips DVDR880
Succesfully hacked a clean DVDR880 using 750 Instructions. Note the bit about using the System Menu to change the remote controller used with this system.... to DVD Player (by default it is on DVD Recorder). This makes it recognise the RC6 Code Set used on the One 4 All hack.
