Samsung 709....firmware question ?
How can I check which firmware version is installed while in the shop before I buy ? Is there a way and also is there a way to upgrade it ? If so where do you download it from.....
Also, the hack in another thread allowing multiregion settings also states the removal of macro, but how do you remove macro ? Does it do it automatically when you set the region free mode.
Forgive me for being a bit dim but i`m new to dvd.
Thanks for any help given.

RE: Samsung 709....firmware question ?
Macrovision is removed when you select the "auto region" mode (Region 9).
You can`t tell the firmware version without opening the lid (though many have tried). It`s printed on the large EPROM chip at the top right hand corner of the player.
As for upgrading, see this recent 709 Online forum thread:
