I had to revert back to the drivers from 2011-11-05 since the text-tv function was more or less destroyed on my box (going into text-tv disabled all input from the remote control and could only be fixed by a hard reboot of the box). I use text-tv much more often than I play media with DTS soundtrack so it's not really a huge loss for me (and I have a DTS decoder anyway), but of course I would have liked the other benefits of the drivers. It was a bit annoying though, that the box simply upgraded the drivers as part of the image software update as I did not backup the old drivers beforehand.

That has long since been fixed in the latest revisions of the image.
