Page 1 of Scan SC-2500 Firmware Update

I have a Scan Sc-2500 DVD player, which I thought was one of the lucky ones, and was not suffering nay of the problems others have had.....

.....Until last night!

I have started to experience the remote button problem (buttons take on the function of the previous button pressed).

Does anyone know where I can get a reliable disk containing the up-to-date firmware, or some instructions for downloading and burning a disk myself?

I have Win XP, with Nero CD burning software.

Please Help!

Cheers

MJ

Try the Scan group at Yahoo, which you`ll need to sign up to :

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Scan2000/

Pretty sure they`ll have SC-2500 stuff too :-)

We can send you a hard copy(that works this time).Just email your adress to yelsew[at]ku.oc.nacs and we will send it free of charge.And it is avilable on the newsgroup as well.Their is an sc2500 group as well(yahoo)

Thanks very much Nelley.

I have had no problems with the machine up until now. (touch wood!).

Hope the disk solves it!

There IS a 2500 dedicated group - don`t bother the 2000 group as they`re sick of 2500 owners crashing their party when the player is made by a complely different manufacturer ;-)

Make sure you DO visit the site, because flashing the player requires a very specific process, and it won`t work unless you do it properly.

Can someone PLEASE post a link to the firmware upgrade that is NOT on a yahoo group? And WHY oh WHY aren`t scan hosting the firmware upgrade on their own website? Is it a Scan product or not?

Not : as it`s a rebranded import, the firmware belongs to the manufacturer, not the retailer, sadly :-(

Now, if you owned a rebranded Sampo player I could help you :-)

Just to add to this, you can now find a review of the SC-2500, the latest firmware files, and a guide to burning and applying them here on Reviewer in the Hardware Reviewer section.

The new sc2500s avialable on may 24th onwards shouild not require any updating as they have the latest version already loaded.I just hope the factory did this.

I just hope that scan learn from their past mistakes and actually test the units before making these claims/shipping the units to the customers.
