Known Issues
HDCP On-Screen Display appears on Sony TV when using HDMI connection
HDMI audio lost on DELL TV when TV reboots

Please report issues....
Recently we have seen more and more people download the CE's, but not participate in threads... until their are asked to "grade" the CE... they give it a failing grade, but have never posted an issue about the version they have. So... If you download the CE... PLEASE!!!! post any issues that you are having... even if someone else has posted it.

Thanks Rad. Got me sleeping at the wheel. Actually work picked up this week and I had to road trip to Boston. More CE madness this weekend!
 
Seems the same as the national for me. The font is different and brighter, HDTV is now known as TV Type in the Menu, but the menus are SLOW! Same with the channels.

Didn't notice anything else.
 
H20-100 Version: 0x20?? Did not request DownLoad

The upgrade downloaded by it self. I did not request it. At 1st, every time I went to the tv guide and than came out, the tv jumped from Full to Zoom mode. (Sony XBR 40) After I rebooted the system that stopped, but I do notice the menu will flicker once than go to the channel in the correct viewing mode.
The Font has changed to some kind of blocky gothetic which is really anoying.
Menus runs a bit slower
The Hi def seams better
