    Be very, very careful when flashing the bootloader guys, done in-correctly you could brick your receiver.

    This is marked as a public beta. Apparently blind scan works again.

    I was warning people that it was beta - not suggesting it was safe

    I, personally, will be waiting until the weekend before I do anything

    I did mine just only to verify it is actually 3.8.3 and to see if the new bootloader works.
    I have no notion of testing OpenMips I'll wait for VIX

    Does anyone have the official procedure on flashing the bootloader on the Quad?

    I'm not going to flash the bootloader anyway until it's absolutely necessary to run the latest build of VIX.

    I just think if its quite a risky procedure and easy to brick the box it could save a lot of heartache in the long run.

    Early reports from GB support:

    1. Picture quality is not as good as latest 3.3.6 driver
    2. A few people have bricked (recoverable) - suggestion is USB pen drive incompatibility and just try again with different drive
    3. Blind scan works, DVB-c work
    4. Ethernet speeds are slower
    5. 51% bug is re-introduced.

    So definately not worth getting too excited about yet - it IS after all a beta

    I thought it would be Marty as thats how the Vu's are done. Just the warnings in the thread earlier made me wonder if some voodoo was involved also
