Cookster670 Posted June 19, 2008 Posted June 19, 2008 Hi Guys. Is anyone trying the new TF6000 Firmware (below) ? System ID : 2446 Loader Version : L1.13 Device Version : v5.4.0 Application Version : TF-NNPCTA 5.19.81 Last Update : Feb 13 2008 I downloaded last week, and since I have installed it, my PVR is very unstable. a few times it has rebooted on it's own accord. a couple of times i've been in timeshift mode, and if I use the timeshift bar (that bar you get when you hit PLAY), to find a spot in a recording, the PVR will reboot sometimes hitting PLAY will not even bring up the bar. I installed this as I wanted WPA support, but my TF6000 on the old 3006 firmware was so stable. I think it's only rebooted once or twice in 2 years. Anyone else having a problem ?
pgdownload Posted June 19, 2008 Posted June 19, 2008 These issues are probably unrelated to the new FW per say. Just that you have installed new FW (any old/new FW) which has caused some issues. Recently the cause of the Progress Bar bug has been identified. Essentially if you set a timer (or have existing timers) on a channel after a FW upgrade that relate to a channel that you have yet to actually tune into (after the upgrade) you'll have issues. I would suggest you do a factory reset, spend 5 seconds on each channel flicking through and then recreate any timers. Check the Toppy forum for more info on the Progress Bar bug. Regards Peter Gillespie

Regards Peter Gillespie Thanks Peter. I will do that. I did not try re-tune my channels or do a reset, so worth a try. (i have already gone back to 2006 f/w), but I really want to be running WPA for the peace of mind.
