FYI I received this from dvico support, in relatation to sound issues I am having with my LG 50pc1d and the 4100.


"We found some problem with some display and we modified our firmware related this. We will release a new firmware in soon, so please wait for this."

Not sure what soon really means, and I really wish they were more communicative to their user base.....

would also be nice for them to have a beta program

Dvico promised new FW next week.
Btw, they recently created a Beta subfolder in their 4100/5100 FTP folder.
However, the folder is empty for now or I don't have access to its contents.

Dvico has upload the Beta FW into the Beta folder...

More details in the main 4100/5100 thread but installed and all OK here...

Well, I installed the 1.0.38 FW and got no audio on ISO and IFO movies.
I don't have an external audio receiver/decoder and 4100 decodes audio for my stereo HDMI TV.
Seems that Dvico messed with Dolby Digital sound, all other audio codecs seem to play well including DTS decoding.

Oh, well. Rolled back to 1.0.22 FW to get audio and wait patiently for them to release non-beta version.
