There was a new bootloader required for two images prior to Hades. So yes, you will need to update it.
TM bootloaders are here.

file extracted to formatted 8gb kingston,cruzer,integral.
inserted/removed from box when powered off only.

same procedure when reflashing the image give it plenty of time to load and reboot box.


have a look here for your guides.

Ok ive flashed the new bootloader and the new image, all went well, but iam stuck on the setup screen, as my remote isnt recognised now, and i cant use the panel buttons.

Scrub that, rebooted the box and it all seems to be working now, very odd.
