Nope. Sent mine right back after I spent hours trying to get it to work, hours trying to contact Vizio, then they casually tell me I needed firmware, like I should know that. If I needed it, they should have sent it with the TV !!! I figured this would be only the first of many problems with an inferior product marketed by sloppy manufacturers. Idiots!

I'm still waiting! Bad news to me is they aren't including Flash with the upgrade which is really why I wanted this tv. Very annoying!

yeah dont get this tv my friends has it. the problem with it is fuzzy picture. i did a comparison with my own 1080p Lns-4095d samsung tv. Even though my tv is relatively older it didnt have fuzzy pic. Also note that both were using hdmi cable. however the LN-T5265F did not want to swtich to a 1080p resolution. everytime we did it got static. also note that all tests were done using a ps3. I recommned a Samsung however not this one.

I have firmware 1.52 and I still saw the adds. Could not believe Panasonic did that. But obviously some people are immune to it and do not notice them, so for some people, watching adds on the blue-ray player you just bought may be ok. (this does require a network connection, so perhaps some people are not using the online content)

It's functioning on my set. EDIT: APPARENTLY there are a few different firmware versions on these sets...mine is E550i-b2 V 1.16.47.0758. Some sets have E550i-b2 V 1.25.24.0234. My opinion is that this is causing a lot of problems in the tv enthusiast community. It's possible that Amazon Instant Video is NOT working on both firmware versions, as some are still reporting it isn't functioning. Vizio is NOT offering a firmware update at this time, so as far as I know, you are stuck with what firmware version you get....for the time being.

I had (and still have) the same problems (standard def dvd freezing/choppy playback/check disc errors) prior to updating the firmware. I think the problems just coincided with the timing of the firmware update. LG needs to get on this and make things right for their customers.

alot of the problems i read were related to firmware upgrade. Do you get a recent rev?? or do you have to do the upgrade when you bring it home?

I do not have an update as of this time, but I am told the Pioneer will be capable. They seem to be the one on the cutting edge. So I would check for a Firmware update for your unit. I am not in desperate need of triple or four layer Blu-ray, but will probably update just the same. Usually, they have more than one item or capability in each update. That generally means improvement on several fronts.

i upgraded as well and have had no problems with previously unviewable blu-rays. Until tonight...the mummy returns is the first movie that doesnt play since i upgraded the firmware. anyone know anything about this?

That sucks, Ryan. Maybe when the next firmware update comes out, you can reset the unit through the menu after you update the firmware, and it will work.

Call the company, they may have tried to do a software upgrade on the TV and it got stuck... that happened to mine once. She had me unplug it, the plug it back in and hold the power button while she sent a refresh signal then tried to push the download. Took almost an hour to get it working right.

Lester, I am sorry but I don't know. I updated the firmware couple of months ago and didn't make a notation of either the original firmware version or the latest version downloaded. I have found there is frequently a more recent of firmware than the one loaded at new. Makers sometimes suggest doing a firmware update when making the original setup which I think is a great idea since there maybe something to do with security in the latest version.

The latest firmware is v2.4 (as of April 2014). The firmware version on the adapter is displayed in the bottom right corner of the TV screen. I usually check about once a month to see if there are any updates. You can check the Belkin website for firmware updates. The page containing the latest firmware is: http://www.belkin.com/us/support-article?articleNum=80312 And the main page with product information is: http://www.belkin.com/us/F7D7501/p/P-F7D7501/

If you are trying to get your tablet to connect with the LNT4061F via an HDMI connection, all I can say is be careful. The HDMI on my LNT4061F never worked properly and when it did "work", I would say that it worked half the time. Because of the issues with HDMI, I went to Samsung's website to check to see if there was a firmware update which might help solve the HDMI. I downloaded the latest firmware update and it fried my TV. I thought there would be a way to undo the update and there was not. I contacted Samsung and all they could say was, "why did you install the firmware?" My answer back to them was, "why didn't you place some type of warning on the update to state that the update might not work and that it might render your TV useless?" No comment on Samsung's part and no they did not offer any type of resolution. It would have been nice if they offered a discount on a new TV or on a replacement board for the TV but they did not. Then again, I have come to expect very little from Samsung in terms of service. We have a refrigerator from them that developed rust after about 13 months and a Samsung dryer with parts that have burned up during use so I know about Samsung. I bought a replacement set from Panasonic and it has been excellent. I have no idea about how Panasonic will be in terms of support but then again, nothing has gone wrong with the TV so... there you go!

Oh, nevermind everyone. I looked around and found this on the website: "Currently Unavailable: This item is currently not available for ordering, and we don't know when or if this item will be in stock again." Well, then. Crap shoot it is. I'll wait it out and cross my fingers or look for another TV.

There probably isn't a need for the firmware upgrade - I couldn't find an explanations of what the update includes. The table works without it. So if yours is working and you don't notice anything unusual - than don't update. :)
