Has cinavia infected the firmware on this yet?

Unfortunately, I have no idea. No CinaVia movies were used during my testing. However, please note the following: Firmware is updated on a regular basis. At each start up, the device reaches out to a location on the net, updates the firmware when needed. I have no idea if the CinaVia is part of the update. I do know that who ever created this encryption method failed to adequately test it before releasing it to the public and it has caused significant issues in playback of newer titles. That is arrogance beyond belief.

no, it's pretty much the PS3 that is associated with that. it only happens on movies made by or associated with Sony. the WDTV isn't affected buy this block. that's why I bought it inthe first place. enjoy....

Just put CFW on your PS3's and it makes it the best media player money can buy!!!

Unfortunately I have 2- 859 CI DI combos and they both had to be sent back after nine months.. Definitely reset defaults before you update software...

Bought mine 11 months ago. From around the time of the firmware update of Dec 7th 2012 it has been abysmal - the usual connecting/retrying/initializing network. I've done all the factory reset ops to no avail, as well as the usual with the network. No other devices on my network have issues. Came back to Amazon to check the latest reviews and lo and behold - I see tons of new radios with the same issue. In one review you see Grace acknowledging a firmware issue - but I have to ask WhyTheF haven't they either 1) reverted back to the previous-good firmware version by global release, or 2) enabled users with problems to install the previous version via the USB slot. You can clearly see how many of these units were purchased for Christmas here and returned to Amazon as defective. According to Grace's comments in this review: http://www.amazon.com/review/R1LDJTD7SEV60R/ref=cm_cr_pr_cmt?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B004YI9NTS&linkCode=&nodeID=&tag=#wasThisHelpful ===== I apologize for the frustration you are having. A recent software upgrade affected a small percentage of our customers. Unfortunately, our core software engineers are on holiday. They will be back on Monday and will work diligently to create a software upgrade for any customer who is experiencing this problem. ===== So I either waste time going through their support site and file a ticket, or hope that according to them the imminent release of good firmware will come. If you're having the connecting/initializing/retrying loop, rather than pulling your hair out thinking it's your network - consider if might be the bad firmware.

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.

Jose,If you have the unit connected to the internet you should be able to go into the on-screen menu and have it search for a firmware update.Eric C

I believe there has only been 1 firmware update, which is can be found here: http://www.funai-corp.com/support/Firmwares.aspx You have to burn it to a CD & then load it to the blu-ray player from the CD.

So far I've had no trouble and bought it after the firmware was to have been installed. I'm not familiar what the firmware improved but it works fine.

No. I contacted them and asked them to include it in a firmware update, but nothing yet.

It looks like LG did correct the problem with the firmware upgrade. I did the firmware upgrade thru my wireless network just couple days ago and it came thru successfully. I was thinking if it failed, I'd do what Matt suggested. You might want to give it a try again with the upgrade. I'm going to rent a blue-ray movie, hopefully it won't freeze.

No I have not. Everything is fine. Try different inputs and cables etc. also you can run the image retention bar ( thru menu).

I have not experienced those issues. I recommend checking to see if there are any firmware updates for your unit. You have to connect your unit to a internet connected computer to perform the online check and updates.

I received firmware version 3.AHL for Barracuda 7200.9. But probably doesn't mean you will get exact one.

The latest firmware is V1.05. I hope all of the old stock is gone and only the latest firmware version is being sold.

There are no firmware updates that I am aware of. AND I would not expect to see one. These devices are priced to be a nearly disposable item. I would test thoroughly, quickly, and return it it it doesn't measure up.

The latest firmware is still 1.03, I believe. The one I got from Amazon back in June was the latest version 1.03.
