</div></div>My god, what is all the fuss about? It's very possible that a firmware<br>
update could break the mythtv ceton code. It's happened before where I<br>
had to do a few small tweaks to make it work, so it's always possible<br>
it could happen again. Since the mythtv support isn't provided<br>
officially by ceton, chances are their changlog or forums wouldn't<br>
tell you much about how it works in mythtv. So the appropraite way to<br>
find out would be either to try it yourself or to ask in this forum. I<br>
can't blame someone for wanting to ask before trying, especially since<br>
on some hardware once you've upgraded it can be difficult or<br>
impossible to downgrade (luckily, on the ceton downgrading is<br>
trivial).<br>
<br>
Meanwhile all the traffic from your fussing about asking a legitimate<br>
question here had generated 10 times the amount of traffic as it would<br>
if you had just left the thread alone or maybe let 1 or 2 people<br>
answer "yes/no it did/didn't work for me".<br>
<br>
As to the "5 users" claim, my person email logs from people who saw me<br>
on list and then contacted me off list indicates a LOT more than 5<br>
users here. Maybe there are only 5 of us that post about it often.<br>
<br>
As to why upgrade it nothing is broken, there can be plenty of<br>
reasons. Even the best hardware occasionally has glitches, and the<br>
newer firmware could be better in that respect. Or maybe it has faster<br>
tuning times or something...things which would not necessarily be<br>
broken, but could provide a better experience with the newer firmware.<br>
"If not's not broken, don't fix it" isn't always the best answer. It's<br>
certainly the safest answer, but not necessarily best.<br>
<br>
As for the original question, I wasn't aware that newer version was<br>
available. I'll test it out sometime and report back if nobody else<br>
beats me to it.<br>
