NeTV release 19 notes

Important notes

 * Your device may not automatically reboot after the update. If this happens, the screen will be blank, and you will need to unplug and replug the device. This is due to a crash that happens in reboot that was fixed in this release.
 * HTTP API is refactored, please see http://wiki.chumby.com/index.php/NeTV_web_services

 * Bug fixes for ticker event, control panel, etc.

Recovery Mode

 * Recovery mode should now work. You should be able to completely destroy the root partition and kernel and be able to press and hold the setup button during reboot, and the unit will connect to any open or WPA-encrypted wifi network, and will then automatically grab a fresh image and recover the device. You cannot destroy the partition table and still recover. Requires IR remote.

System

 * SSH is now off by default. Go to system->enable SSH to turn it on.
