WDLXTV-Plus-0.4.3.1 discussion thread

[RayW]

Hi, I upgraded to 4.3.1 and Netflix didn't work. 1080p seemed to be working at 60hz. Anyway I downgraded to 4.2.3 and found out that the netflix screen came back but it didn't want to connect and I had to do the factory reset and then re-activate Netflix. (in case anybody else has that problem). I noticed in the new settings page on the webend that the apache web server was not checked, I never turned it off before. Not sure if that is the problem with Netflix.
I was wondering if maybe I upgraded to 4.3.1 and then did a factory reset if that would fix Netflix but I haven't tried that.

After further testing I have discovered that it is the HDMI deep color mode that is causing my 1080 problems. If I set it to 12 the screen is a mess but when set to 8 all 1080 resolutions that were working before are working again.

I am not sure what the HDMI deep color mode really does as my picture looks fine.

I will add this report to my bug report as well.

Also Netflix is not working as others have reported but I use my Roku for that so no real problem for me.

Previous version of WEC didn't handle the APACHE option with the proper setting. You probably ended up writing back the wrong value to your config. That didn't prevent Apache from working (obviously since you were able to reach it), but the new version which uses the correct setting might have missed it.

How do I turn on the Apache again if I can't reach the webend?

set APACHE=ON in S00custom-options

set APACHE=ON in S00custom-options

Okay, I enabled S00custom-options again and switched it back on but no luck

What happens if you telnet in and enter the same command, APACHE=ON?

When in doubt, for some reason I don't always trust S00 as much as I do telnetting in, even though it should be the same thing.

Update on my last post on the firmware update.

I put the unit back on the first version 0.4.2.3, changed my video to 720p, 8 bit. Did the upgrade and this time the HDMI port is working.
I then changed the video to 1080p 8 bit and that worked also.
Then I changed to 12 bit and the screen went blank and returned back after 10 seconds to the 8bit setting.

I have checked my Netflix and it is working, good audio and video at these settings.

Also thanks for the new updated show list for Revision3.

Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong. When I go to my update it says I have the latest version available. It wont auto update.

Is this because when I did the intial install I changed the wdtvlive2.sev file to VERSION='1.03.29.WDLXTV_PLUS-0.4.2.3'
LOCATION='wdtvlive2.bin'
PKG_LOCATION='wdtvlive2.pkg'


did I make the number to high and now it wont update? If so how do I fix this so going forward I am at the right number?

in the menu it says im on 1.0329 wdlxtv_plus 0.4.2.3
