Yes indeed. My dealer basically says he will not come round until there is a specific problem to fix, so I'm a bit confused now

thorne:

Is this normal policy?

Yes, this is what my dealer insisted, too. Well, less "insisted" and more like "we can get an engineer out to you in 48 hours, so why other using the CD?". An engineer came around and did a full BV7 sw update, including the Blu-ray drive. My TV was updated to sw 10.x at the same time. Good news.

Thanks for all the info. The thing is my dealer tells me that the strong advice from HQ is that you should only have updates installed to fix an existing problem

And the BR-player can be updated by simply hooking it up your broadband connection (or by disc). So your dealer can sort this out rather quickly.

To the DIY gang at BeoWorld: updating the BR player will initiate a service ticket/note that will be sent to the dealer you bought it from.

Are there any worthwhile software updates for this?
