Scan firmware 2.14 on hdubois.free.fr - but no info....

Hi All,

Have any firmware mavericks had a go at 2.14? There`s no info with it and as I only had my SC for 5 days I am reluctant to dive in, especially after what happened to Xeno on 2.13

Still love the machine BTW - anybody thinking of getting one but holding back because they are new to DVD and perhaps a store bought Panasonic might be safer? Forget it, the SC2000 does everything, and it does it without needing a degree in electronics.

Now, which firmware is gonna make it silver..... ;o)

I suggest we all wait until Xeno tries it.

Hello...

I`ve tried version 2.14 on my scan machine...

Works well so far.. but can`t disable macrovision.
Previously I had version 208 installed... So I downgraded the firmware to 1.80 and then installed version 2.14. (My machine originally came with version 1.64 purchased 01/11/2000..

Anybody have a copy of this 213 firmware ?

Could you email it to divad[at]ku.oc.evreseerf.kilwag

I`ll give it a go..... Other machines have gone dead on previous firmware versions, which have worked on other machines including mine..

It`s suppose to stop the DVD picture from something called
blue shaddowing and it also resolves some other issues.

Maybe version 214 is version 213 with the ability to disable macrovision removed ?

Who knows ?

v208 is the best to use.

Anyone got 2.13 which is 2.11 but with macro disabled?
It was due to be released this weekend from nelley -anyone got it yet?

<<<<<<<<<"I suggest we all wait until Xeno tries it."

I am not a beta- tester guys -lol

Nelley has assured me that all future firmware will be tested before release so there shouldent be a problem.

Even if there was a problem with the firmware and something happened to your scan -Scan wouldent have a problem replacing it.My machine died after i installed 2.13 and nelley had a drop and pick arranged within the hour and the new machine arrived first thing the next day.

Has no-one got 2,13 yet ?
Is macro not disabled with v2.14??

xeno


ps. 2.08s will disable macro but WONT solve the blue shadow problem(watch jaws)
