Beta Program

This page here is for beta program users. Bugs, updates and compatibility matrices will be posted here.

Announcements

September 27: Units at version 9 should go to 11. Version 11 is an update from pre-launch, so don't get too excited; we just fixed a bug in update deployment that should have been fixed a while ago. A new update is in the works that has more significant functionality changes and upgrades soon.

September 29: Update system is currently being reworked again, so updates are off-line temporarily. They will be back on-line soon. At the moment if you run an update you will get a signature mismatch error.

September 29: Rework is done, updates should now be happening automatically. Current latest is 11.

Confirmed Issues

As of firmware release 11

wifi

  • There is a known issue with TKIP encryption, affecting WPA1/WPA2 TKIP-only type links. Please use TKIP+AES, or open. Using Android app 0.5.6 and later will fix this bug, but configuring using IR remote will not work.
  • There is a known issue with 128-bit WEP encryption and hex keys.

Feature Discussion

  • Feature request: make rate of scrolling configurable
  • Feature request: add PAL support to enable EU cable box compatibility

Compatibility Matrix

columns for source compatibility should be: Device description, make, model; and auto-res, forced 480p, forced 720p, compatible; and 1080p truecinema compatible; comments. Numbers in parenthesis indicate the firmware revision that a particular compatibility state was verified in.

compatibility states should be yes, no, and intermittant/partial

Sources

Device Fw rev Resolution Compatibility Notes
Tivo Series 3 unknown forced 720p intermittant (11) I could get NeTV into mode where it just showed black background, usually by switching video inputs on TV and coming back to the Tivo+NeTV chain. [update: this happens on occasion when switching video inputs to TivoS3, not a dominant operating issue]
PS3 CECH-2501A Version 3.56 forced 480p yes
PS3 CECH-2501A Version 3.56 forced 720p yes
PS3 CECH-2501A Version 3.56 forced 1080p no (11) NeTV does not support 1080p60
PS3 CECH-2501A Version 3.56 auto no (11) NeTV goes into self-timing mode. However if I connect the PS3 to the TV directly, there is no signal, too. I have to reboot the PS3 then can set the resolution back to manually.

AKIRA DVD Player DVD-K3528HD unknown forced 1080p no
Apple TV version 2 unknown all no (11) / fixed >11 This product is non-compliant to spec. EESS signalling is too early, causing loss of cipher lock. A work-around is implemented and will be deployed in firmware versions greater than 11. Not quite sure how ATV2 works with other devices since they are so far out of spec on EESS timing.

Sinks

Display Resolution Compatibility Notes
Toshiba 40G300U forced 720p yes
LG FLATRON W2261VP-PF yes
VIZIO M221NV yes
LG 42LW5700TA yes
Sony Bravia 32CX520 yes This TV is very picky about the +5V input. For proper operation you must use the provided power supply and power cable, otherwise the resistive loss and/or tolerance of a typical USB power supply and cable can put you outside its accepted range.
