Just tried to down load it. Said 4080 was available. Not the CE. (I have the H21-200)

 

[gbertler]

Same here.

 

[Rey]

i hope not. i began downloading what i thought was this weeks ce and went to bed.the previous ce was giving me all kinds of audio/video issues.

 

[Rey]

i don't know what happened last night with this download but my H21-200 reset to the factory firmware. what the hell!!! lost my MRV!

 

[Rey]

now I'm downloading software 4080? how old is this?

 

[jcrandall]

I would guess that 4080 was the national release. I'm not sure if you missed the window (Fri/Sat night), or if it wasn't in the stream Saturday night for some reason.

 

[berck]

Well, if you check the time of my post, it was done just after I tried on Saturday. Which was about one hour after it was suppose to have started. I suspect they forgot about it on Saturday.

I did the download saturday at 11:30 pm . a few others here had issues saturday night too. hopefully they'll be another ce for the h21-200 this friday.
