hddvduser Posted June 12, 2008 Author Posted June 12, 2008 this is not the region free firmware it is a downgrade firmware.....
bertha Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 this is not the region free firmware it is a downgrade firmware..... Just noticed this and got my hopes up for a second thought maybe you'd had a change of heart - I live in hope... All the best Berth
neuty Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 This is not the Region Free Holy Grail Firmware. This will downgrade an EP30 or A30 player to 1.3. To be used if you are having playback problems with a higher firmware...................eg: 2.0 neuty
Blind Pugh Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 I'm not too technical so please be gentle. I've downloaded the file which has a .iso extension. When I try to burn it, the program says it's not a valid iso image. The program I'm using is CDBurnerXP. Do I need to do something with the image file before burning? Or is CDBurnerXP at fault?

Have a read here on how to burn a firmware disc. http://www.dtvforum.info/index.php?showtopic=61342
hddvduser Posted June 13, 2008 Author Posted June 13, 2008 this downgrade is for certain people i know...
Blind Pugh Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 Thanks for the reply. Yes, I read that thread and tried some other burners like ImgBurn, Iso_Burner, IsoRecorder. These seem to burn the disk but if you then try to see what's on it, Windows says its an unrecognised format. I'm burning to CD-R80 disks (have used 10 already). I'll do some more Googling methinks.
Guest TheBlackFlash Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 Windows says its an unrecognised format. That's perfectly normal.

As the flash says thats normal,if you have burnt the disc properly your computer wont recognise any files on it,just put it in the machine and it will upgrade.
cyberkid2002 Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 i sense a secretive conspiracy going on... do some people possibly have the multi-region patch that only works from version 1.3 or am I barking up the wrong tree (you know who I'm talking about!)
neuty Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 Sorry wrong tree mate this will help for those who have issues with 2.0 until hopefullt 2.1 comes from Toshiba I have an EP35 and on 2.0 i have bad jaggies on my picture, but now back on 1.3 and its fine neuty
iainl Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 Thanks, hddvduser. I don't need it at the moment, as I don't have a 1080p display, but I'm bound to get one at some point; I'll keep the file around just in case.
Guest TheBlackFlash Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 I have an EP35 and on 2.0 i have bad jaggies on my picture, but now back on 1.3 and its fine I never upgraded mine for precisely this reason. Not that I have a 1080p display anyhow, but I live in hope.................
MACCA350 Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 I have an EP35 and on 2.0 i have bad jaggies on my picture, but now back on 1.3 and its fineneuty Sounds like a similar issue the XE1 2.8fw(IIRC) caused when playing AVC in 24hz mode........(I think I got the settings right, there was a thread on this a while ago)......Does this mean there may be a fix coming for the XE1 also?............or is this staying on the ignore list? cheers
neuty Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 (edited) At the time i upgraded i had Transformers hddvd and that showed it up straight away.I think you may be right MACCA350 about the AVC codec issue. All sorted now though neuty Edited June 13, 2008 by neuty

Not what I'd call sorted......more like ignored by Toshiba and hddvduser has helped out by way of a workaround...Unfortunately Toshiba won't bother fixing the issue now..........sucks that their flagship HD player has this issue cheers
neuty Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 Not the most ideal fix downgrading ,but a fix nonetheless for me. Cheers neuty
