Sweet! I will update my player tonight and watch a DTS disc.

ProvenFlipper · 10-17-2006, 08:19 PM

Just updated my player... It actually updated like 3 or 4 different firmwares on the player. It went main, loader, then sub F/W. Took about 10 mins to do, so don't think the player froze and turn it off.

I have yet to pop in a DTS disc, as I have to study for my Finance midterm that's in 1/5 hrs. I will provide an update later.

phloyd · 10-17-2006, 09:52 PM

This looks to be significantly newer firmware (Oct 11) so I will update too and see what happens

phloyd · 10-17-2006, 09:58 PM

The disc contains the files:

060929_01_R100.RUF (4MB)
061011_01_Poseidon.RUF (48MB)
BD1F929F.SSE (448KB)

shamus · 10-18-2006, 06:46 AM

I updated known fixes in original post...

zombie · 10-18-2006, 10:39 AM

So is the PQ any better after the firmware upgrade?

10-18-2006, 11:12 AM

Yes it is because the DTS judder is gone.

Looks like the only thing I get out of this is the DTS fix and improved load times. I can't wait until the end of the month, when the NR fix and BD-J updates take place.

There are reports of improved PQ on standard DVD upconversion.

BTBuck1 · 10-18-2006, 03:54 PM

The Sammy could be the player to beat at the end of the month.
with it's lowered price at most places (crutchfield now $799) it's looking more and more appetizing.

I purchased my Samsung three weeks ago and I always had the color dots and no hour glass. Didn't even know there was one. I also watched "Sleepy Hollow" in dts and had no problems at all. Do I still need to do the update?

Thank you!

Nobody knows since Samsung is being quiet... I guess it couldnt hurt to install it...

BTBuck1 · 10-18-2006, 04:22 PM

I think I read on AVS that if your player already is updated it will put up a message when you load the FW disc that the "Loader is the same" no need to update or words to that effect.

phloyd · 10-18-2006, 05:48 PM

I updated last night and watched Stargate with DTS and it looked fine. I never did that before the update so I don't know what I am missing

.

Anyways it seems to work fine. Looking forward to more updates...
