Updating the Radiance XD/XD3D

About the updates: The most current firmware upgrade for the Radiance XD/XD3D is shown at the top of the list below this section. You can check your firmware revision by looking under "Info" on the menu or by pressing "ok" on your remote when the menu is not up.  The update can be performed with a PC and a null-modem serial cable, such as the one included with the unit. See the change log at the bottom of this page for more details on the updates. All updates are complete and contain everything from earlier updates so there is no issue with skipping updates.

Running the update: (For more detailed instructions see the Tech Tip on updating included in the zip file) Download the new update and unzip it. Connect up your PC and your unit with a DB9-F to DB9-F null-modem serial cable. Insure you have a stable power supply to the unit as there is a window of a few seconds at the end when the flash is reprogrammed that if the power went out it would then need to be reprogrammed at the factory--don't do it during a lightning storm!

Turn the unit on. On the PC double-click (run) the downloaded utility. Select the appropriate com port (check Device Manager/Ports) and baud rate (57600 usually works well). Select the desired Update Method (Auto unless you are attempting to reinstall the same firmware version and are having problems) and click on "Start" when ready to begin. The utility will start updating, which will take a few minutes. A download warning screen on your display lets you know that the update is in progress.

The PC utility will finish and tell you when it’s done, and the RadianceXD will turn off. Turn the unit back on, acknowledge any on-screen completion message, and you are ready to continue using the RadianceXD.

If the utility finishes with an error (due to a communication error), just turn the unit off and back on, and rerun the utility.

Note: All the configuration information is normally retained during an update (unless otherwise noted in the update notes below) so you usually won't have to write down your current settings or redo anything.

Reporting issues and making suggestions: Please email us at support @lumagen.com and give us all the details you can. When reporting issues let us know what software revision you're on.

Several small menu improvements and fixes. Small improvement in input switching speed.

[DOWNLOAD]

Production 102913- Added 2 APL patterns to the Gray Window pattern group. Added a custom window size and a custom window size + APL pattern to the User Color window pattern group.  The 2 new patterns added to the User group use the RGB level that are settable in the first 3 patterns. The custom sizing allows setting the window size in .1% steps. The custom size + APL pattern allows setting both the window size and an APL. As you vary the size of the window the background level is adjusted to give the desired APL. If it can't meet the requested APL, a greater-than or less-than sign is displayed next to APL to indicate this (.ie setting RGB=240,240,240, the custom size to 90.0% and the APL to 30% would give the greater-than sign next to APL). Added rs232 access to the new patterns. The rs232 format for the new User size pattern is "ZY7TsSSSRRRGGGBBB" with SSS being 3 digits (000-999) for 0-99.9% area of screen.  The rs232 format for the user defined size + APL pattern is "ZY7TsSSSAAARRRGGGBBB" with AAA being 3 digits to be set to 000-100 for 0-100% APL.

New fpga in this update for XD/XE for several systems having an issue with input 1.

[DOWNLOAD]  

Beta 090512- Fixed CMS 8 point to 125 point conversion bug (a certain CMS value could cause out of whack colors after updating). Fixed the Save:Undo command for the new 125 point gamut. Fixed issue of not showing a warning about configuration changing after altering 125 point gamut. Added rs232 command to report current input aspect, ZQI19 returns 0-4 which translate to 1.33, Lbox,1.78,1.85 and 2.35 input aspects.

[DOWNLOAD]

Beta 090412- NEW 125 point CMS added! That's a 5x5x5 matrix for color correction and calibration. A big upgrade from our previous 8 point matrix which allowed calibration from only the corners of the color cube. The new 125 point gamut has it's calibration points located at 0, 25, 50, 75,100% of video min/maximums. The older 8 point gamut was located at digital min/maximums which did not give quite as much precision. Previous calibration values in the CMS gamut menu are interpolated to the new gamut locations so the numbers displayed in the menu will be different. This doesn't change your previously performed calibration results. Instead, the changed values represent the same calibration but from the new gamut locations. You now have the option of calibrating with 8 or 125 points. If you perform an 8 point calibration you can change to the 125 point mode and keep the previously set 8 points. The other 117 points are interpolated from the original 8 when changing from 8 to 125 point mode. With this many points to adjust, auto calibration software from   ChromaPure and  SpectraCal really helps. They have both added support for our new 125 point gamut with excellent results. Note: We are in the process of updating the Configuration Utility to support backing up the new 125 point gamut data to a PC via rs232. This should be available by tomorrow.
Gamma correction: Range has been extended and can now be adjusted in steps of .01.
Test Patterns: Added 2.35 letterbox geometry overscan pattern.
Bugfixes,etc: Problems with Top/Btm 3D formats to Frame Packed and Frame Sequential output was fixed. An issue of using test patterns with certain settings not restoring the input aspect was fixed. Improvement to output setup menu allows multiple changes within the command to be performed more easily. Added sending 601/709 color information needed by Darbee Darblets with firmware before 2.8.2214. Added a direct command to globally disable video on output 1, "menu 0985". Other small fixes and improvements were also made.

[DOWNLOAD]

Production 030112- Adds frame-packed and Top-bottom 3D types to the output setup command so you can now go from any input 3D type to any legitimate output 3D type you wish. Fixed Top-bottom -> side-by-side 3D conversion. Added an indicator for test patterns as to whether it's a reference pattern or adjustable pattern (an A or R is shown). In the test pattern menu, pattern commands were added (both adjustable and reference) that are displayed in a user specified test mode. The test mode is settable in this menu and the output mode, 3D type, CMS and style are all specified. Bugfix for pattern commands sometimes causing odd values to get entered in the color gamut for some setups.

[DOWNLOAD]  

Production 020412- Fix for issue in 013112-020212 with not always enabling CRT 3D Glasses sync box.

[DOWNLOAD]

Production 013112- Fixed an issue with 122x11-013012 firmware that could cause 3D polarity issue or loss of genlock when changing memories on an input in some situations. Some improvements to operation with CRT 3D Glasses Sync Box. Added rs232 command to delay rs232 command processing--so for instance you could send the poweron command, wait 5 seconds, then put up a message. The new command is "ZWxxx<CR>" and the delay xxx, in milliseconds, can be up to 30000 for a 30 sec delay.

[DOWNLOAD]

WhtRamp is similar with background of video white (235/255). LowClip has static and flashing ramps for gray, red, green and blue with all values ranging from 0-31. HiClip is similar but around 235/255. Added checkerboard, inverse checker and a checkerboard with center marks. Added a User window test pattern group that allows entering r,g,b values. Added '1' key to test pattern controls in order to cycle opposite direction through patterns in a group from the '4' key. The rs232 test pattern command format was adjusted for the new User window pattern. The pattern is specified with 's' and the format for the rs232 command with this pattern group is  'ZY7TsSRRRGGGBBB' where 'S' is defined to be 0-2 for medium, small, full field size. 'RRRGGGBBB' is the rgb color value with 3 digits specified for each and a range of 0-255. An example rs232 command for a medium, red window would be "ZY7Ts0255000000". Some other small bugfixes.

[DOWNLOAD]

Production 011812- Some minor fixups and improvements to input EDID functions. Now allowed to set up different video EDID on input memories to aid with some multimedia PC issues.

[DOWNLOAD]   Production 090911  Due to a bugfix first made in 090111 there was a slow-down on acquiring video after a mode change which was most notable with cable/satellite type sources. This update speeds it back up to what it was before 090111 and may be a bit snappier then even pre-0901 releases. Several bugfixes and improvements to pip & pop including the ability to set the Pop background to a gray level rather than black using the Output: Style: Graybar: Top/Bottom level setting.

[DOWNLOAD]

Production 090511- Adds automatic input selection. This can be configured in the menu under Other:I/O Setup:Auto Select. In this menu you can add inputs to a priority list. This prioritized list of inputs is used by the Radiance when the current input source is turned off. The Radiance will then switch to the highest priority input in the list and continue thru the list until it finds an active video signal. If no active video is found it will wait ~8 seconds and cycle thru the list again.

[DOWNLOAD]   Production 090211  Bugfix in 090111 for loss of video with mode change caused loss of video in another case and is now corrected.

[DOWNLOAD]

Production 090111- Bugfixes: Issue in 081411-082811 with scaling being turned on when it shouldn't be in some cases.

[DOWNLOAD]

Production 082111- Several bugfixes for previous changes made in 081411 update.

  • Adds ability to set gray level for the border created by shrinking or masking the output. This border was previously always set to black. Setting it to a gray level can be useful for some in order to use the shrink /mask commands and avoid burn in on large plasma displays. This new command is located in the menu under Output:Styles:Mask/Shrink.

  • Added ability to enable rs232 reporting of Radiance output mode changes useful for control systems that need to take other actions when this occurs. This new setting is found in the menu under Other:I/O Setup/RS-232 Setup. When enabled and an output mode change occurs the Radiance will send a string reporting the new mode information as if the rs232 mode inquiry command ("ZQI18" ) had been issued to the Radiance.

  • Adds rs232 command to set 3D eyeglass polarity, new command is "ZY48X", where X can be either '-' or '+'.

Updated Documentation-

 

[DOWNLOAD]   Production 061011  Big improvement to the user interface of the output setup command. It's much more powerful and is now located under the Output menu----so no need to go wading thru the input menu to set up the output settings anymore (although we've kept  the output setup command in the input menu for anyone who's used to finding it there.)  With this new command you can do things, for instance,  like quickly check what all the inputs are using for CMS or if you want to set memory A of all inputs to use Style3 and leave the other output settings untouched you can do that easily. We've updated the tables of 8 output modes/CMS's/Styles now to display checkmarks next to setups that are being used. Also several bugfixes.

Production 060311- Fix for bug in 060211 firmware that caused a few selection items in the menu to not be completely readable.

    Production 060211  Bugfix for vertical shift changes sometimes causing a split screen for some output modes. Bugfix for 1080i-50 side-by-side 3D input being displayed as 720p100 frame sequential causing judder. Clock jitter improvement which can improve some display modes on CRT's and may improve digital displays locking on to the Radiance output more quickly.

[DOWNLOAD]

Production 052611- Small change so the Output:Style: Mask and Output: Style: Shrink commands allow changing/displaying test patterns with the 'Alt', 'Prev' buttons .  When adjustments are made in these commands and you have an internal pattern up the output will flip to video but you can flip back to the test pattern by pressing 'Prev' now.

[DOWNLOAD]   Production 052511  Bugfix for not always correctly changing between some 3D output types. Adds automatic turn-off of video to a display that does not support 3D if the output video is 3D (this can be overridden by setting Output:Global Setup: 3D Options: Out is 3D capable to Yes). Adds a remote control command sequence for input aspect of 1.85 letterboxed in 1.78, press 'Alt' then '1.85'. Improved FPGA performance for high-performance display modes with '+' option.

[DOWNLOAD]

Production 051511- Adds more 3D conversions so frame-packed, top-bottom or side-by-side sources can all be sent out as side-by-side if desired. The 3D OutSelect command was updated to reflect this with the addition of a side-by-side 3D type selection. The optional Quick Keys menu was changed to always be present (you'll see it at the top level of the menu) since we've added the manual selection of 3D types to it (side-by-side/top-bottom/off). There were previously only direct commands for this which are: "Menu031" = side-by-side, "Menu032" = top-bottom, "Menu030" = off. Added the ability to prefix direct commands (like "Menu031") with the 'Alt' button so the menu does not show up on screen. This should be useful for programmable remotes or control systems that wish to keep the menu from momentarily flashing on.

[DOWNLOAD]   Production 050611  Bugfix for occasional picture loss with some side-by-side 3D sources when also going out as side-by-side 3D.

[DOWNLOAD]

Production 050411- IR remote code is back to 041611 version as newer version did not play well with some programmable remotes.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 050311  Bugfix for 0501-0502 revisions causing audio/3D loss due to the PCH200 fix. Improvement to IR remote handling.

 

Production 050211- Bugfix for change in 050111 sometimes causing unreadable menus.
    Production 050111  Adds ability to convert 720p60 frame-packed 3D (common mode for 3D PS3 games) to 1080p60 side-by-side 3D which is useful for displays (like the Titan) which aren't optimized for 720p frame-packed 3D. Bugfix for automatic side-by-side 3D detection with Popcorn Hour 200. Bugfix for not always restoring ISF backup. Couple other small bugfixes.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 041611- Bugfix for editing the 2D OutSelect settings in the menu which could alter the 3D OutSelect 3D type. Some rs232 command updates: new command ZQI18 replaces ZQI03 for querying current output configuration. ZQI18 returns out1 on/off status (1/0), out2 on/off status (1/0), output mode selected (C<0-7> for one of eight output configurations or D<mode_name> for a directly selected standard mode), output 3D type (0=off, f=auto, 1=frame seq, 2=frame packed, 4=top-bottom, 8=side-by-side), cms <0-7>, style <0-7>. ZQI01 was updated to add one additional comma separated value at end for input 3D type ((0=off,  2=frame packed, 4=top-bottom, 8=side-by-side). ZQO01 was updated to add one additional comma separated value at end for input 3D type ((0=off, 1=frame seq, 2=frame packed, 4=top-bottom, 8=side-by-side).
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 041511  Adds saturation test patterns (red,green,blue,yellow,cyan,magenta) at 25%,50%,75%. Bugfix for rs232 command 'ZY42....' which did not use the correct cms index  for parameter updates.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 041411- Adds ability to allow 720p side-by-side 3D to be converted to 1080p side-by-side by selecting 1080p60 as the mode under '3D OutSelect' and leaving the 3D type as 'auto'. Useful for Titan projector owners or any other display that doesn't work well with 720p frame-packed.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 041311  Bugfix for 0411-041211 revisions causing problem with side-by-side 3D sources when converting to non side-by-side 3D on the output.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 041211- Fixed issue with audio loss using some PC graphics cards, fixes audio issue with Mozaex movie server and perhaps some other HTPC's and satellite boxes. Fix for 041111 issue with low-level banding. Fix for limits on output masking on top edge at 47% for 1080 sources.

Fix for manually setting side-by-side/ top-bottom 3D modes which was not always working (press "menu 031" for manual side-by-side 3D sources, "menu 032" for manual top-bottom sources, and "menu 030" to disable the manual 3D modes. Note that setting a manual 3D mode is only necessary if the source does not transmit that it's displaying a 3D mode).
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 040111  Adds conversion of 720/1080 side-by-side 3D to frame-packed 3D (need to have Input:Video Setup:RES:3D OutSelect set to "Auto"). Also adds converting from side-by-side to frame-sequential 3D (used by CRT's) and for this you must select an output mode and 3D type in the 3D OutSelect menu. Note: currently side-by-side 3D sources cannot be cropped or adjusted for aspect scaling but we will be adding this ability in soon.

[DOWNLOAD] Production 012311- Fixes a configuration compatibility issue in 012211 if reverting back to older firmware. Fixes a couple issues with manual control of sbs and tb 3D modes for 1080i.
    Production 012211 (If you loaded this update and want to revert to older firmware then update to 012311 first)- Added manual selection of side-by-side and top-bottom 3D formats which is sometimes needed when sources don't send a 3D flag over HDMI. Press "menu 031" for side-by-side, "menu 032" for top-bottom, and "menu 030" for 2D.  Added rs232 command to select Output Mode, Output CMS, and Output Style. Command format is "ZY530mcs". where m is the Output Mode select and can be the character 'K' to keep the current mode or '0'-'7' to select Output Mode 0-7. After m, c  selects Output CMS and can be be the character 'K' to keep the current CMS or '0'-'7' to select CMS 0-7. Lastly, s selects the Output Style and can be the character 'K' to keep the current mode or '0'-'7' to select Style 0-7. There are several more bugfixes in this update.

Menu improvements under the Input:Video Setup:RES menu area for Output1 and 2 select menus. There are now Output2D and 3D Select menus and under each menu you can setup Output1 and 2. In the Output3D Select menu you can select 3D output modes as before but we've added the ability to select the 3D type. The 3D type can be Auto,TopB (top-bottom),SByS (side by side) ,FrmP (frame packed), FSeq (frame sequential) and Off. We're still adding capabilities so not all of these are allowed yet.   Bugfixes for a test pattern issue, mode timing setup issues, mode information display. Bugfix for setting input color space and getting a shrunk version of input video. Bugfix for a copy issue with input memories. Fix for an issue with hotplug and NuVision displays that could result in a blank screen. Bugfix for not picking up 720p60 3D on power-up.

Beta 111210- Bugfix for output Select Mode menu command not changing the mode when required. Bugfix for global setup of output2. Bugfix for reading 3D capability of JVC projector in "Auto" mode.

[DOWNLOAD]   Beta 111010- Bugfix for bug in 110910 only that doesn't allow use of several menu items under Input:HDMI Setup.
[DOWNLOAD]

Beta 110910- Fix for incorrect mode display in Select Mode command. Added new 3D capability setting in the menu under Output:OutputX:3D. The default is 'Auto' but this can be set to 'Yes' for displays that support 3D but don't report it via their EDID (the Titan3D is one such display). This can also be set to 'No' is you wish to manipulate the Radiance Automatic output mode into not enabling 3D for 3D source material. 

[DOWNLOAD]   Beta 110810- Fixes up slow power-on issue. Expanded 3D edid for DirecTV compatibility. Fixes up a display issue seen with Panasonic VT20/VT25's where colors would sometimes be wrong and audio would not work. This could also fix up other displays with similar symptoms. Most likely they would only be 3D displays. We have got a VT25 and it now works with 422/444 colors, 2 channel audio and 3D (VT25 does not take Dolby Digital). Known VT25 issue (XD only): with the VT25 being sent 1080p24 3D, with audio, and using the HDMI ARC input on the VT25 results in occasional flashes of video snow--using another HDMI input on the VT25 works just fine.

THIS UPDATE HAS ISSUES WITH COLOR CALIBRATION please use 102910 or newer updates.
Beta 102810- Adds support for processing 3D video to use in combination with 3D sources and 3D capable displays. Splits output configurations into Mode,CMS, and Style settings allowing a more powerful way to mix, match and reuse your output settings. Auto output modes have been improved such that if the source changes from 1080p60 to 1080p24 then the output mode will change to 1080p24 if the display supports it. There have also been a few small bugfixes.

3D Details: For units purchased before Oct. 1, 2010 a software key must be purchased from Lumagen to enable 3D video processing. Email
sales@lumagen for information on purchasing. In this firmware 3D sources are only allowed to use the Auto output mode. For 3D the auto output mode sets the output mode to be the same resolution and rate as the input mode--so a 1080p24 3D movie will set the output mode to  1080p24 3D.Also Side-by-Side and Top-Bottom 3D modes are not currently allowed to be scaled (so no cropping, aspect adjustments). 3D BluRay players and the PS3 are using frame-packed 3D modes and these can be scaled with this firmware---so yes, 2.35 movies in 3D with an anamorphic lens will work.  Known issue (XD only): The XD has an issue with some 3D output formats when audio is also output to the display that can cause video to be intermittently blacked out. Can be worked around now if  you configure the XD to drive audio on the other output and turn audio off on the 3D video output.

Output Config Details: The 8 output configurations have been split into 8 Modes, 8 CMS's, and 8 Styles. Older setups are converted such that Output Config 0 becomes Mode 0, CMS 0, and Style 0. This split allows for mixing and matching settings in a much more powerful way. You can now select a Mode, CMS and a Style individually for each input memory and input mode in the menu under Input:Video Setup:RES:OutX Select (previously the output config was selected in this menu location). Instead of having to set up the 8 output modes for standard resolutions, you can now directly select an output mode in the OutX Select menu. You may find it unnecessary to even set up the 8 output modes unless you have some special output timings required by your display.
Note on reverting to older firmware: If you mix and match Modes/CMS's/Styles (.ie Mode 0, CMS 3, Style 6) or use the new directly selectable modes and you revert to previous firmware versions you will get some different results since the older firmware does not understand these selections. We recommend backing up your old configuration to a PC before updating to this newer firmware as a precaution.
-----2D + 3D releases and newer, improved output configuration functionality ABOVE-----(for 2D or 3D units)

-----2D only releases with older, less capable output configuration functionality BELOW----

[DOWNLOAD]   Production 092510- Bugfix to allow some non-standard sources to work (was broken in 0915-0916). Small improvement in switching and locking on to video signal in some cases.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 091610- Fixes up 75Hz video output mode for use with Pal sources.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 091510- Fix for problem in 080510 with Coax/Tos/Analog audio in -> Coax audio out. May improve Coax/Tos/Analog audio in -> HDMI audio results.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 080510- Fixes for audio/video dropouts which occurred in some systems with the 07XX10 updates. Fix for coax audio in when selected on an analog video source with inactive video. Couple other minor user interface improvements.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 072310- Small change to previous update which had a video noise issue on input 3 for some systems. 
[DOWNLOAD] Production 072210- Small tweak to the previous update to fix an output sync/loss of video issue on some units (only seen with 1080p24). If you don't have an issue with 072010 than updating is not necessary.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 072010- A couple bugfixes to genlock when appropriate and to avoid stuttering which occurred under some circumstances with non 60Hz output modes.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 071810- Improved Pop (picture-outside of picture) function for maximally filling screen when Pop is performed and the aspects had necessitated sidebars---for instance, if you're watching a 16:9 source on a 2.35 screen and you "pop" up another 16:9 source (if Pop set to size of 50) the sidebars will be removed to use up the entire 2.35 raster. Prior to this update the two 16:9 sources would have just filled the area originally occupied by the first 16:9 source, leaving sidebars onscreen.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 070310- 
  • Adds reinterlacing for 480p and 576p sources. This can provide dramatic improvements to a picture that has been poorly deinterlaced prior to coming into the Radiance. Reinterlacing also allows for taking in 480p/576p movies and going out at 24/48/72Hz. The new command is under Input:Video Setup:RES:Control:Reinterlace. With this command you can "allow" or "disallow" quick remote key control for a particular resolution as well as turn it on/off. If "Reinterlace <> Keys" are allowed the left/right arrow buttons on the remote can then be used to control reinterlacing. The left arrow can toggle reinterlacing on/off and the right arrow toggles the field order. Depending on how the picture was deinterlaced,  the field order may or may not be important but it can be quickly toggled to see if there is any difference. Discrete commands are available for reinterlacing control as well and they are "menu 0940"=off, "menu 0941"=on, "menu 0972" = toggle field order. A new rs232 command was added to arm the right/left arrow keys for reinterlace control, it is "ZY523X<CR>" where X='0' disallows, X='1' allows, X='2' allows with onscreen messages. The discrete reinterlace commands also work as rs232 commands ("M0940","M0941","M0972"). An rs232 command was added for reinterlacing status, "ZQI17", which returns "!I17X,Y,Z"  where X = 1/0 (on/off) , Y = 1/0 (allow/disallow) for <> keys, Z= 1/0 (active / not active) to indicate whether reinterlacing is taking place.

  • Improved PAL deinterlacing and now allows "film only" deinterlacing mode to use settings under "Enhance" menu for 50Hz sources.

  • Added direct command to set output sync polarity, "menu 01XY". X=0/1 (-/+ Horiz polarity), Y=0/1 (-/+ Vert polarity). Both outputs set together. Use menu to set them different from one another.

  • Upped maximum output pixel clock settable to 156 Mhz (useful for CRT displays).

  • Bugfixes: Bugfix for film mode sometimes not getting set when changing memories. Bugfix of 1080i-50 component zoom settings causing incorrect cropping on left side. Loss of input video under rare circumstances fixed. Loss of output video (depending on configuration) on output 2 fixed. Fix for inability to alter rate match settings on inactive config. Input changes to non-hdcp sources were sped up. Copying ouput aspect from one output config to another fixed. Copying black/white in output config fixed.

[DOWNLOAD] Production 031810- Bugfix for screen sometimes going black with no menu or video visible (which could come back if switching to a different input or turned off and back on). For rs232 users a command was added to disable displaying the status screen when a <CR> (carriage return) character is received, press menu 0927 to disable/enable.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 031610- Adds some more audio formats to the user selectable list in either the main audio menu or the per-input audio edid menu. Formats added were PCM 2Ch 192Khz, PCM 5.1Ch 192Khz, PCM 7.1Ch 44.1,48,96,192 Khz, DD+ 5.1Ch,7.1Ch (Dolby Digital Plus).
[DOWNLOAD] Production 022410- Fix for bug in 022310 release causing unreliable audio operation.
    DON'T USE--Production 022310- Fix for Pip cropping issue that occasionally results in improper scaling of the Pip window.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 022110- Fix for video issue in some XD/XE units caused by a marginal timing issue in FPGA. Updating not necessary unless you're seeing consistent/obviously noisy/corrupted video from one or more sources.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 022010- Bugfix for an audio issue that in some situations could turn hdmi audio output off when it was set to be on (or on when set to be off).
[DOWNLOAD] Production 021910- Bugfix for an issue with the main audio menu inadvertently changing the condition. Bugfix for masking in Pip/Pop window not always working.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 021810- Bugfix for intermittent audio issue which often affected HD audio formats (bug originated in 011410 update).

[DOWNLOAD] Production 021410- Bugfix with new Pop command when zooming on main window.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 021310- Bugfix for bug in 021210 revision that with Pip and certain source combinations could cause a video source to be lost until switching to another input and back. Bugfix for output mask command when used on inactive output configurations.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 021210- Adds Pop (picture-outside of-picture) to the already implemented Pip command. The 'Pip Setup' command is now called 'Pip/Pop Setup' and is located under the 'Other' menu. The new 'Pip/Pop Setup' command now has a 'Type' option where you can select 'Pip', 'PopL' or 'PopR'. 'PopL' stands for 'Pop Left' so the secondary video window will be to the left of the main video screen. 'PopR' is for the secondary video window to be placed on the right. For Pop you can vertically orient the side-by-side screens to be at the top, centered or bottom of the picture and adjust the y position from there. Also some small improvements to Pip in this update.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 012510- Bugfix for game mode with interlaced inputs only showing top half of screen (bug occurred at 011410 revision). Bugfix for the Pip Setup menu command where in a particular situation the values would jump as you entered the command.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 012010- Fix for an audio noise/dropout issue with some equipment.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 011410- Small precision improvement in video processing. Can now save last Pip source/mode per input. Also added a default PiP mode setting under Other:PiP Setup: PiPSel/Mode. The default Pip mode is initially set to "None" for each pip source ( which means you stay with the current pip mode as you change pip sources as it acted previously). If you set the default pip mode to 1-10 for a particular pip source then when you select that pip source it will use the assigned default pip mode.  Bugfix for occasionally powering on with a blank input which could be corrected by power cycling again. Output sync polarities added under Output:OutputN:SyncPolarity. Fixed label alignment in input menu.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 120509-

  • Some shorter timeouts added for the Pip timeout option

  • Fix for a horizontal tear with new game mode on+genlock+480p

  • Fix for selecting inputs 10,11 on new input selection menu

  • Fix for incorrect display of film/video deinterlacing mode on status screen (was broken recently when new game mode was added)

  • Fix for not deactivating Pip mode after Pip has timed out. (so a number press on the remote was still interpreted as a pip source after the pip had timed out)

  • Noise improvement on SD (240p too) analog inputs--completely eliminated some flickering seen on dark screens using a PS2.

  • Fix for incorrect vertical cropping with game mode turned on with progressive sources (seen as scaling differences turning game mode on/off).

  • Support added for 240/288p component sources (such as PS2's). Recommend enabling game mode for these sources.

  • Added another condition to the output triggers (if output aspect > 2.00)

[DOWNLOAD]   Production 111609- Improved analog component inputs for some sources that had a slight flicker. Bugfix for setting output1 video off for all mems and all resolutions which would turn off video on output 2 instead.
  • Added a "Game Mode" setting for minimizing video latency. For interlaced sources 480i/576i/1080i are treated as 240p/288p/540p when enabled. Enable it if needed in the menu under Input:Video Setup:RES:Control:Game Mode. When game mode is enabled PiP, Deinterlacing, and Enhance settings are not available.

  • Added a couple more Pip settings. "Label" allows disabling the label the comes on for 5 seconds when the Pip is selected/changed. "Timer" allows setting how long the Pip stays on when selected (the default leaves it up until manually turned off).
  • Added the Input Mask to work with the Pip window. The ability to mask the Pip along with the new "Timer" setting allows creation of a special Pip window for an output from an AVR or other equipment that displays menus. So, for instance,  a programmable remote could turn on the Pip for an AVR when adjusting a volume control and just the slice of the menu from the AVR with the volume display could be overlayed onto the screen and after a certain amount of time (10 sec - 4 minutes) this "volume control" Pip display would turn off automatically. The input mask command can be found in the menu under Input:Video Setup:RES:Size:ASPECT:Masking.
  • Added an "Input Selection menu option. Enable this in the menu under Other:Menu Control:Menu Options with the "Input Menu" setting. If enabled, you can press the 'Input' button the remote to display a list of inputs to select from. The list is editable.
  • Added the Pip swap function--used with the 'Swap' button on the remote.
  • Couple other small bugfixes
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 110209- Bugfix for changing deinterlacer mode settings incorrectly for inactive config(this bug was in 110109 only and was caused due to the addition of the new "video mode" setting). Updated rs232 commands regarding deinterlacer mode settings (for the 'ZQI15' and 'ZY515' rs232 commands the value of 2 is now used to indicate "video mode" deinterlacing). The rs232 tech tip will be updated accordingly. Added a "Video" deinterlacing mode to the menu under Input:Video Setup:RES:Control:Deint:Mode . This is a useful option if your watching cable/satellite type sources and your seeing some combing. Couple small bugfixes.
[DOWNLOAD]  

Production 102509-   

  • Added PiP for analog inputs with the limitation that if the main window is an analog source then the PiP can either be the same analog source or an HDMI source. If the main window is an HDMI source then the PiP can be any source.

  • Added a new "Memory Usage" option in the menu under Other:Memory Usage. Previously when you select a memory (A-D) you are using it across all  inputs, .ie if you're on input 1A, change to input 2 and press 'MemB' and change to input 1, you'll be using 1B. We've called this the 'common' memory usage mode since the memory in use is common across all inputs. Now you can set the memory usage to be per-input, so if you're on input 1A and change to input 2  then press 'MemB' and change back to input 1, you'll go back to 1A---it remembers the memory you're on for each input. Either mode can be used and it depends on what you use the memories for as to which you might prefer. For example, if you're using memA for settings adjusted to daytime ambient settings and memB for nighttime then you'll probably want to stick with the default 'common' mode.
  • Added aspect and memory  control for the PiP window. Now pressing the aspect or memA-D buttons after PiP select or mode have been pressed sets the aspect or memory for the PiP window--note that if you're not using the new per-input memory usage setting then changing the PiP memory also changes the main windows memory. Auto-aspect also works for the PiP now. Note that for the PiP window the 'Letterbox' aspect, which is defined to be an aspect greater than 4:3 within a 4:3 aspect, is just treated as 4:3 (so you'll see bars on top and bottom) and similarly the '2.35' aspect, which is defined to be 2.35 inside a 16:9 aspect, is just treated as 16:9 (so again top/bottom bars are visible).
  • Added a label to the PiP window that displays it's input name for a few seconds when the PiP is accessed with PiP remote buttons like PiP select, mode, etc..
  • Added a power on input selection option to the menu under Other:OnOff Setup:Input Select. With this you can control which input the unit powers up on after either power is removed or after standby.
  • Added a small reminder in the menu when settings have been changed to help remember if you should 'Save' before powering down.
  • Several bugfixes and some minor additional menu enhancements.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 100109-  Adds a new command to tweak deinterlacing quality with an "Inter-Frame motion detection" setting. This command can be found under the menu at Input:Video Setup:RES:Control:Deint:IFMD. The range is 0-15, 0 should minimize combing while 15 maximizes detail according to the chip specification. The default value is 6. Adds the ability to set HDMI input type. This option is found in the menu under Input:HDMI Setup:Type. This was always "Auto" but can now be set manually to RGB, YCbCr422, YCbCr444 as some DVI outputs use these other formats but can't communicate which format they're putting out like an HDMI device can.   Default for audio mute was changed to "Long" but this only comes into play if you load factory default values.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 092209-   Some bugfixes for new 12/21 point grayscale/gamma calibration commands. The biggest issue was a bug in the copying of the calibrated data between output configs which could cause either overflow on bright scenes and/or inability to go back and edit the grayscale for an output  config that had been copied from another. So if you did an output copy command with revisions 091409 or 092109 you should recopy the output configs (.ie if you had copied config0 CMS data to all other output configs then do that again after loading this update).  Also a couple of other small bugfixes unrelated to CMS.
  DON'T USE- Production 092109-  Turning on/off PiP no longer results in momentary onscreen noise. Bugfix for occasional horizontal line of noise with combing when the "film only" mode is used with 480i in and the output mode is 60 Hz. Bugfix for pressing the wrong key in one menu command which would corrupt an entry in the CMS gamut. Bugfix for going from 11 point to 12 or 21 point grayscale for an issue that occurs if the original points are only 0.5 IRE apart. Bugfix for restoring an ISF configuration that was saved more than a few months ago.
    DON'T USE-Production 091409-  Adds 12 and 21 point grayscale/gamma calibration commands (in the menu, under Output:Configs:ConfigX:Color Mgmt:Gray/Gamma). If you change from the 11point  to 12 (or 21) your current grayscale points are not changed and the new points are interpolated between your currently calibrated points. Bugfix for PiP sometimes turning on at powerup. A couple of other small bugfixes.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 090609-  Bugfix for factory reset setting on input 10 (bug was only in revision 090509).
    NOT RECOMMENDED, ISSUE WITH 24P OUTPUT---Production 090409-  Made some changes to the Rate Matching feature introduced in revision 072609. Some displays are not liking 60.00 Hz  refresh (show no picture) and only want 59.94Hz so the default is now "off". Also added direct commands to globally turn rate matching on/off. Pressing "menu 0950" will turn it off, while "menu 0951" will turn it on for all output configs.  You can individually set the output configs as before in the menu under Output:Configs:ConfigX:Timing:Rate Match.
  NOT RECOMMENDED, ISSUE WITH 24P OUTPUT---Production 090309-  Bugfix for audio turning off when PiP was turned on.
    NOT RECOMMENDED, ISSUE WITH 24P OUTPUT---Production 097209-  Adds Picture-in-Picture commands. The OFF, SEL, and MODE buttons on the remote for PiP now work (SWAP will be implemented in an upcoming release). Also, only HDMI inputs are currently allowed in the PiP window (analog inputs in the PiP window will be in an upcoming release).  Here's a short FAQ on the new PiP feature:
Remote button control for PiP:
SEL
: When pressed will turn on the PiP window if not already on. After pressing SEL, pressing a number selects that input as the PiP input. Once SEL is pressed you can continue to change the PiP input by pressing number keys. Once a non-numeric button on the remote is pressed, pressing a number will switch the main-window input.
MODE: When pressed will turn on the PiP window if not already on. After pressing MODE, pressing 0-9 selects one of the 10 PiP modes. The mode controls the location of the PiP window, its size and its density (aka transparency). Once MODE is pressed you can continue to change the PiP mode by pressing number keys. Once a non-numeric button on the remote is pressed, pressing a number will switch the main-window input. To change PiP mode settings go to "Other:Pip Setup" in the menu.
OFF: Press to turn off the PiP window.
SWAP: Not yet implemented. Will swap the main window and PiP windows. When swapping the screen may blank for several seconds.

Several small bugfixes also made in this update.

[DOWNLOAD] Production 080109-  Bugfix for change made in 072209 which disabled coax/tos audio in some cases. Adds increased range to the A2D gain reduction command used for component inputs. Bugfix for when sources are turned off or unplugged that would result in green dashes instead of a black screen.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 072609-  Adds "rate matching" for handling sources that generate 24.0/48.0/60.0Hz instead of 23.97/47.95/59.94 Hz. Rate matching defaults to on and is located under the menu at Output:Configs:ConfigX:Timing:Rate Match. With this new ability the output mode is adjusted to match up with the input mode so that frames are not dropped. This is most noticeable now when a 24.0Hz movie is played with the output set to 23.97Hz. When enabled the output rate is adjusted to the correct multiple so if you're at 59.94Hz on the output , a 24.0Hz source would change your output rate to 60.0Hz. Fixed an issue with spdif audio in at non 48khz rates to HDMI outputs. Fixed an issue with automatic display modes (added in 071309) where it would undesirably revert to 480p.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 072209-  Couple of audio issue fixes. Fixed an issue of the Radiance spdif out going to a McIntosh MX132 prepro. In the Radiance audio menu a setting of "Basic" for spdif out will now work with the McIntosh (the "Normal" mode will not , so use "Basic"). Fixed an issue with the Meridian HD621 audio processor where it did not see Dolby/DTS from the Radiance (affected both spdif/TOS and hdmi audio inputs on the Radiance). 
[DOWNLOAD] Production 071309-  Added new automatic display mode for output. This mode will configure your output based on information read from the display. The 2 automatic modes are  called "auto_p1" and "auto_p2". Since there are 2 output ports you can choose which one is given priority for setting the mode, so with "auto_p1", output1 is checked first for a valid mode, then output 2, and if neither has a valid mode then 480p is used.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 070309-  Bugfix for new auto aspect feature not always getting the correct initial setting from the source.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 070209-  Added ability to manually override the automatic input aspect. Just press an input aspect as you normally would and the current automatic aspect is overridden. You can go back to the current automatic aspect on the current input by reselecting the current input or just by pressing the "input" button by itself. There's also another field in the auto aspect menu which allows a manual input aspect override to be 'sticky' or not. If 'sticky' is off and the source sends new input aspect information then the input aspect will change to the new aspect automatically. If 'sticky' is on then the manually selected input aspect will be used until you reselect the current input or press the 'input' button by itself.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 070109-  Added automatic input aspect selection for HDMI inputs which can be enabled on a per-input memory basis. Look for it in the menu under "Input X:HDMI Setup: Auto Aspect". Added inverse options on output triggers. Added rs232 commands for input deinterlacing mode ("ZY515") and input vertical shift selections ("ZY516"). See newly updated  rs232 tech tip 11 for usage details. Couple small bugfixes.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 061109-  Fix for an issue where switching to 1080p24 output mode would sometimes give some flashing noise for several seconds or longer.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 060209-  More bugfixes for the 052509 revision. Fixed vertical input masking and vertical shift for "film only" mode. Fix for chroma resolution loss. Fix for corrupted horizontal lines in video when using NLS in some cases.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 052609-  Fixes some 601/709 colorspace issues arising from changes in the 052509 revision. Also, a bugfix for case when zoomstep set to 5% and 2.35 input aspect with 2.35 output aspect resulted in a slightly scaled image when it should not have been. Couple other small bugfixes.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 052509-  Replaced "Film Bias" deinterlacing mode (which was ineffective) with a new "Film Only" mode. This new deinterlacing mode fixes deinterlacing issues seen in film sequences  from Gladiator to Lord of the RIngs to Battlestar Galactica (TV shows are often shot as film). In some film sequences the "Auto" mode incorrectly drops to video mode which can cause a flickering effect with thin horizontal lines and can make 24/48/72 Hz output stutter. The new "film only" mode always stays in film mode and is only engaged with interlaced sources. Also, when using the new film mode the settings under the enhance menu are disabled. For 24p/48/24sf/72hz output modes the new film mode is probably the best option since it's implied with these output modes that you're watching a film source. Improvement can be seen for 50 and 60Hz output modes with film sources but if you're using a source that outputs both video and film you may want to use a different memory to quickly enable it.  A new 72Hz output mode was added. It is 817x1920-71.93Hz and is listed as 817p72 in the mode list. This new mode is ideal for 2.35 movies shown on a 2.35 display with a 72Hz capable projector. Bugfx for an HDMI audio output issue.  Bugfix for adjusting inactive graybar level and incorrectly affecting the active graybar. Fix for an issue of "softness" with svideo and composite sources.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 050509-  Fixes a couple of rs232 command interface issues (the rs232 output color/hue command for red and green only worked with output config 0 and if a test pattern was up and the rs232 power on command was issued then a small cyan box would appear onscreen.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 050309-  Fix for another audio bug in 050109-050209 revisions that would cause loss of audio.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 050209-  Fixed an audio bug introduced in 040309 update that could cause some setups to not get audio output.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 050109-  Fixes an issue which caused occasional loss of video , sometimes after working for hours, in revisions 032909-040309. Adds an additional setting for output audio SPDIF control, the old setting of "On" is now "On Norm". The newly added setting is "On Basic" and was found to fix Coax/TOS to an older Yamaha YSP-1100. Adds a separate timeout option for test patterns in the menu under Other:Menu Control:Timeouts
[DOWNLOAD] Production 040309-  Audio improvement for format changes (saw a case with an MC12 going from 96Khz to 48Khz) that would sometimes cause a short burst of static even with the Radiance long mute setting. Note that the PS3 connected direct to the MC12 also gave a burst of static on the format change. A similar issue was fixed with format changes and some sources resulting in silence. Another sw fix was made to prevent video stutter with an inactive component connected to a Radiance output (saw case with one particular component).
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 032909-  Improvements in fpga timing to fix some occasional video noise issues in some systems.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 031609-  (replaces 031509 which had an issue with genlock) Previous update had some marginal timing on video outputs. Also a bugfix for video tear towards top of picture  that occurred under some conditions (the case we were looking at was with 576i and letterbox aspect). Also fixed a bug where sometimes the input mode was not correctly detected.  Bugfix for turning genlock off/on between memories on an input. 
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 030509-  Fixes a bug in revision 030309 that caused subtle video degradation (streaking).
[DOWNLOAD] Production 030309-  Bugfix for video noise issue (intermittent flash of lines) that occurs with some sources and was also dependent on the Radiance configuration. Couple other small bugfixes. Added another setting for output triggers  in order for correct results when using rs232 control, the new setting for the output triggers i s "Under RS232 control". Added 3 new color test patterns (desaturated red,green and blue). The patterns are intended for CMS calibration. The patterns use 75% (191/255 if using 8bpp values) for the patterns primary color and 37% (96/255 using 8bp) for the other 2 primaries. So for the desaturated red pattern, r=75%, g=37%, b=37%. Added a new rs232 test pattern command ("ZY7T") to access all test patterns see updated  rs232 tech tip 11 (old rs232 commands accessed most but not all). Added rs232 command to control output color format ("ZY46"), see rs232 tech tip.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 021109-  Quicker restarting of audio on picture format changes and audio interruption seen on set-top boxes with channel changes or skipping through recorded material. A new per-input menu setting was added for this called Mute Control and it's under Input:Audio Setup. Can be set to "Short" or "Long" and will default to Short. Bugfix for an issue with passing back video EDID from a display to the source (bug present in 0126-0207).
[DOWNLOAD] Production 020709-  Bugfix for 012609-020209 firmware relating to video noise issues and 24p output not working on some systems. Bugfix for purple/green screen sometimes occurring. Audio fix for switching between 2 multi channel PCM sources and losing some channels. Bugfix for DirectTV HDMI audio in not working on latest releases. Bugfix for blanked screen being left green.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 020209-  Bugfix for hw precision improvements in 012609-020109 revisions that could cause horizontal streaking in some scenes. Bugfix for switching to an input and sometimes getting incorrect color (in one case switching to component and getting pinkish color with the input type getting set to Scart incorrectly).
[DOWNLOAD] Production 020109-  Bug in 012609 & 013009 fixed that kept non-HDMI audio sources on HDMI inputs from working.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 013009-  Bugfix for HDMI audio format change problem in 012609 sw. Added rs232 command to toggle HDMI inputs' hotplug (ZY520) -see updated  rs232 tech tip 11 .
[DOWNLOAD] Production 012609-  Some small precision improvements in programmable video datapath. Fix for a case of passthru video EDID which would result in no video. Bugfix for setting black/white on inactive output config which didn't always work correctly. Bugfix for audio issue with Halcro SSP220.  (This replaces the 012509 release posted yesterday)
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 011609-  Bugfix for switching from a component input (with 1080i-50 source) to hdmi input which resulted in the video being shifted to the right.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 010409-  Bugfix for switching to genlocked output and occasionally getting the incorrect input color format set (601 vs. 709).
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 010209-  Bug in 122708 with 601/709 input format was fixed. Fix for an output turned off that is also set to YCbCr output to have a black screen rather than green.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 122708-  Couple of bugfixes for switching between the 2 Radiance outputs. Bugfix for incorrectly setting the audio src of an HDMI input when performing a copy. Modified the input label command to more easily access lower case letters
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 121208-  Added per input memory custom audio EDID option for HDMI inputs in the menu at Input:Audio Setup:Audio EDID. This allows you to override the global audio EDID settings (configured under the main audio menu) on any input memory desired. Bugfix for mosquito noise setting sometimes not getting applied. Other small bugfixes.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 120708-  Bugfix for test patterns being shrunk in the upper left corner of the screen under certain conditions. Bugfix for "NA" sometimes showing up as the input mode on the info screen.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 120608-  Bugfix for sometimes getting strange output configuration parameters under the Output:Output 1 and Output 2 menus. Bug has been present since 102608 revision.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 120408-  Added several new capabilities to output dithering (Output:ConfigX:HDMI Format:Dither) to help some LCD and plasma displays. Numerous label changes in menu: Color/Hue -> ColorDecoder, Contrast ->White, Color Temp -> Gray/Gamma, and other smaller changes. Added some more test pattern access for rs232 so "tqXX" - "tvXX" gives large window patterns red,grn,blue,yell,cyan,mag. Added menu placement option to keep center of screen clear under Other:Menu Control:Menu Options (can also be set via rs232 with new ZY command---see updated  rs232 tech tip 11  ). Added rs232 ZD command to set rs232 delimiter setting. Added another delimiter option to use command count and checksums with rs232 commands.  Added options to factory reset command in menu which now allows for only resetting the current input memory, current output config, or everything. Added support for several more analog RGBHV modes (800x600, 1024x768, 1280x1024 all at 60Hz) and improved mode detection for RGBHV.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 111808-  Bugfix for blanked output with genlock on and source turned off. Adds an optional top-level menu item labeled "Quick Keys" which can be turned on in the menu under Other:Menu Control:Menu Options. It gives users with programmable remotes that have limited numbers of buttons an easy way to access some command buttons in the menu (like input aspects, memories). Improved rs232 command processing and adds some rs232 options for delimiters and acknowledgements in the menu under Other:RS-232 Setup. See updated   rs232 tech tip 11  for complete details.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 111208-  Fix for multi-channel audio issue where only 2 of 5 channels on HDMI would be seen by receiver (instance seen here was with a Denon 3808).Adds more rs232 setup and query commands for control systems, see updated  rs232 tech tip 11  for complete details.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production 110708-  Adds an rs232 echo on/off command, see updated  rs232 tech tip 11  for complete details.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta 110608-  Fix for occasional pip-like version of video in upper left corner seen occasionally when switching from 576p to 1080i-50. Fix for spdif audio out problem in revision 110508.
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta 110508-  A few rs232 additions. Adds the "ZBc" command to set the character for an onscreen block in conjunction with onscreen rs232 messages. Adds an rs232 nop character (_). Adds a <CR><LF> as terminators for rs232 query responses. Adds a power-on query command (ZQS02). See the new rs232 tech tip 11  for complete details. Fourth press of  "Ok" leavers screen clear instead of going back to start of info screens. Couple small HDMI audio bugfixes. Refined the switching of output configs when changing memories.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta 110108-  Adds rs232 powerup/down output messages for controlling another device. The message settings are in the menu under Other:OnOff Setup. Adds rs232 status query commands--this is so control software running on another device can interrogate the Radiance via rs232 as to it's status. If you're in need of documentation of these commands please email us at support@lumagen.  A bugfix for downscaling 1080 sources to 480p output resolution (bug was only in 102608 revision). Bugfix for 2.35 input aspect selection of output aspect (only in 102608). Bugfix for sometimes not setting input color format correctly. 
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta 102608-  Adds a second 1080p-48 output mode (1080p48_B) for JVC HD10K. Adds the ability to handle video sources with non-standard  horizontal front porches on HDMI inputs (an issue with Topfield PVR). Adds the ability to edit inactive input resolution submemory settings as well as inactive input aspect settings. Corrected internal setting for deinterlacer. Fixes an issue with the far right edge for 480/576 video sources when scaled up. Fixes a bug where editing color temp values would clear the output mask and output shrink values. Bugfix for not always displaying the correct deinterlacer firmware version date.  Bugfix for swapped Mosquito & Block noise settings, no visual change to video but you'll notice the labels were swapped. Other bugfixes.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta 102308-  Bugfix for some displays losing picture with genlock on. Bugfix for cropping issue on right side. Bugfix for field flip initialization. Bugfix for HDMI audio not always working right in rev 97208. Adds 5% steps for test patterns accessed via rs232 (use same format tXMM but allows MM to be 11-20 which corresponds to 5%-95% stepping by 10%). Allows 24p in to 24p,24sf or 48p out to have genlock disabled (you can not disable it for interlaced input with 24p,24sf, or 48p output since it can't work without it). Adds "video off" status to lower part of menu display. Adds tabbing thru the Info screens with the 'Ok' as well as 'Alt' button on the remote. Adds current output config to 1st page of Info screen and audio source to 2nd page. Adds disabling the remote controls left & right arrow aspect ratio selection (under Other:Remote Ctl). Other small bugfixes.
Beta 101808-102208 were replaced, they had some powerup and initialization issues under some conditions.
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta 97208-  Adds genlocking of output video to the source. Genlocking reduces video delay and insures that frames are not occasionally  dropped (or doubled) to stay in sync. With genlock enabled we can also convert 1080i/480i film sources to 24Hz, 48Hz or 24sF output. Genlocking is by default set to Disabled on all inputs. Genlock can be set to Auto under Input:Video Setup:RES:Control:Genlock . Under some situations genlock will be turned on whether you've got it set to Auto or Disabled---such as if the input is 60Hz, interlaced and your output mode is 24Hz,24Sf, or 48Hz. When genlocking is on you may notice that it takes a little longer to get a picture when the source changes resolutions. So for sources that change their resolutions often ( like some set top boxes) you may choose to leave it disabled. You can check the status of genlock on the 2nd page of the info screen (press 'Ok' then 'Alt'). Fixed an issue with analog audio to HDMI audio output not always working. Since there were more than the usual changes to accommodate these new capabilities we've labeled this a Beta release. We think this is a very clean update, but as always, if you do run into a problematic bug you can go back to an older update until we fix it.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 097208-  Small update from 082908 which corrects new output Black/Contrast commands so they affect the adjustable test patterns. Adds two new rs232 commands "tR" and "tA" which sets the mode for subsequent rs232 test pattern commands to either Reference or Adjustable patterns, respectively.
WARNING:
Do not do a "force update" with this particular revision.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production  082908-  Update for deinterlacer firmware (you'll see a 3rd progress bar added to the update utility user interface). The deinterlacer firmware update is the first half of getting 480i/1080i -> 24p output. Bugfix for faint banding in dark scenes with certain combinations of input/output resolutions. Bugfix for 1080 in to 480p out with NLS which in some cases resulted in corrupted video. Note that due to the deinterlacer firmware update this update is a little longer than most (~9 minutes). Bugfix for audio issue with TOS inputs when used with analog video inputs. Adds Black & Contrast settings under Output:Configs:ConfigX:Color Mgmt menu (these settings are combined with input settings). Adds rs232 commands for automation of color management calibration (a user manual update is in progress with these details but if you need them sooner just email support). Some other minor bugfixes.
WARNING:
Do not do a "force update" with this particular revision.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 072608-  Fixup for the 2 remote buttons broken in previous update (they were being used for debug and had mistakenly been left in the code).
[DOWNLOAD]   4:3 and LBOX remote buttons broken in this update...Production  072508-  Bugfix for problem present in rev 0711-0722 software that could cause video to go blank with input format changes in some situations. Minor improvements with SPDIF/TOS in to SPDIF out audio path.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 072208-  Fixes TOS->SPDIF audio connection that was broken in previous update.
[DOWNLOAD]   TOS->SPDIF broken in this update....Production  072108-  Bugfix for sometimes getting no/distorted audio on Radiance spdif audio output after the 062008 software. Another bugfix for sometimes not getting audio out on HDMI.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 071508-  Bugfux for occasional stutter that occurs in some systems with 1080p-50 output.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production  071408-  Bugfix for video stuttering under some circumstances. Adds output shrink command in the menu under Output:Configs:ConfigX:Mask/Shrink . Output shrink will shrink the video output window down on any edge which is useful if you have a display that always crops some or all of the edges of the video by some amount.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 071108-  Adds virtual inputs for HDMI inputs. This allows assigning input memories to different physical inputs--so you could assign input memory 1A to physical input 3 for instance. Input assignments can be made in the menu under Input:HDMI Setup:Physical In. Adds a command to disable/enable up/down arrows on remote used for zooming. Find this command in the menu under "Other:Zoom Setup". Some minor bugfixes.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production  062008-  Fixes an issue where a calibrated color gamut combined with certain conditions in the video could result in a splotchy look in color saturated regions.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 061508-  Bugfix for analog/TOS audio inputs not always working (bug was in 0608-0612 revisions). Also you will need to be at this revision or newer to use the new Configuration Utility program for the Radiance that allows backing up/restoring your configuration from a PC. See the utilities page for the Configuration Utility.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production  061208-  Bugfix for lower IRE gamma calculations which were sometimes bad enough to cause visible problems. Enhanced the function of the output aspect per input aspect functionality with NLS. Now, when selecting NLS with 4:3 input aspect the output aspect assigned to the 16:9 input aspect entry will be used and when selecting Lbox,16:9, and 1.85 input aspects with NLS the output aspect assigned to the 2.35 input aspect entry is used. Another small enhancement for input aspects  Lbox,16:9, and 1.85 when modified with NLS will now assert an output trigger if the output trigger had been programmed to trigger for 2.35 input aspect.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 061008-  Fix for Radiance occasionally powering on with corrupted color palette causing weird looking video until power-cycled again or changing the gamma up and back. Fix for the rs232 ZT command using to short of a timeout.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production  060908-  Bugfix for crop top edge (in Crop TopLeft command) not going negative (instead went to a large number). Bugfix for a couple of  spdif audio issues in 060808 release.
[DOWNLOAD] Production 060808-  Fix for occasional burst of audio static when switching between some sources on the Radiance and driving a Lexicon MC-12HD. Fix for occasional dropping of coax audio using MC-12HD. These 2 fixes can apply to similar problems driving other audio equipment but we were testing with the MC-12HD. Bugfix for Scart input corrupting svideo/composite inputs when switching between these inputs. Added wrap around for going up/down the menus. Added "Input Reselect" command in the menu under Other:Menu Control. The default behavior (set to On) is to reinitialize settings and display the input name when reselecting an input.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production Candidate 060108-  Bugfix for problems with snow/menu noise on some systems. Fixed a couple of small issues with the gamut:bycolor test patterns. Bugfix for intermittent vertical line on left side of screen that was in a few recent revs of software and could occur in situations when horizontal scaling was not needed. Fixed the Vertical Shift command to use "Exit" to cancel and "OK" to accept. Most text color in menus is now either white or yellow, eliminating black in all but a few places. Other small bugfixes.
[DOWNLOAD] Production Candidate 052608-  Bugfix for 052508 revision that for some configurations would give no video.
[DOWNLOAD]   Production Candidate 052508-  Adds YC delay command under "Input:Video Setup:RES:Picture". Adds vertical refresh rate selection to timing menu but limited to 50 or 59.94 Hz currently. Bugfix for vertical resolution issue where it would get stuck at  480/576 instead of the correct resolution. Other bugfixes.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 051808-  Improvement in vertical resolution for 1080i and 1080sf24 output modes. Fix for zoom with scale bias set to off that would give a smeared effect on the right portion of the video output. Bugfix for NLS combined with some other conditions that created jumbled output video. Fix for 480i/576i dvi sources that would get reduced horizontal resolution (could be easily seen with multiburst test pattern) and may help 480i/576i on some hdmi sources as well. Other small bugfixes.
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 050508-  Bugfix for NLS used with 16:9 (wouldn't allow you to press 16:9 again to turn off NLS) and other aspects with NLS wouldn't turn off NLS if the previous input aspect was 2.35.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 050408-  New method for gamut white point implemented that eliminates issue of white point affecting the colors (can slightly alter previous gamut calibrations). Another gamut correction issue that involved a calibrated gamut setup and low IRE colors not being weighted toward the color gamut (reported as oversaturated colors at low IRE) was also corrected. NLS (non-linear stretch) is now implemented for other input aspect ratios, so letterbox, 16:9, and 1.85 can be stretched for output aspects of 2.35 (or anything greater than the input aspect up  to 2.45). Some usability changes made to input mask command. Zoom step command was added to the menu under  "Other:Zoom step".
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 050108 (replaces 043008)-  Bugfix for the new vertical shift and input mask commands. Both commands were supposed to be settable per input aspect but ended up that setting it for one aspect also set it for the others. This update corrects this---however you will have to assign the masks/vertical shifts again. (rev043008 was only up for a couple of hours).
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 042908-  Bugfix for the new vertical shift command. Fixes the case of not clearing the bottom of the screen when shifting video up and when output resolution is less than input resolution.
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 042808-  Adds input masking and vertical shift commands in the menu under "Input:VideoSetup:RES:Size:ASPECT:". Vertical shift can be used to position the input video up or down in the output frame. Input masking can be used to cover any of the 4 sides of the input video without changing its position or sizing relative to the output frame. Adds an option to the trigger setup to be set off on powerup. Adds rs232 commands for controlling triggers. The command format is "ZY3<1,2><H,L>" (also a trailing CR,LF or Null character is needed to complete the command). The characters <1,2> selects the trigger and <H,L> sets it on or off. So sending the string "ZY31L<CR>" will set trigger 1 low (off).  Bugfix for triggers not being changed when changing inputs/memories. Bugfix for scale bias not turning off scaling in some cases. Zoom setting was removed from Input menu (just using up/down arrows to adjust).
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 042308-  Adds the rest of the commands under the Save menu (Undo and Restore). Fixes a couple of EDID issues with 24,25 and 30p sources. Added a bit more to the status pages (displayed when you press 'Ok').
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 042108-  Adds output masking (under Output:Configs:ConfigX:Mask/Shrink ). Adds the "Scale bias" command under Input:VideoSetup:RES:Size:ASPECT:Scale Bias " which can disable Radiance scaling in either horizontal/vertical directions if the input resolution is close to the output resolution. Added a second status page (press "Ok" for status) that displays the status of horizontal/vertical scaling. Adds the ability to save the service mode setting to keep service mode on when powered off/on.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 041808-  Adds RGBHV, RGBS, and RGsB analog formats under the Input:Analog Setup:Type command. Note only input 10 supports RGBHV (using inputs 18 & 17 for hsync and vsync). Bugfix for the NLS (non-linear stretch) command  not working on a per input memory basis.
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 041208-  Adds output aspect setting per input aspect (under Output:Configs:ConfigX:Aspect ). You can select to have a single output aspect for an output config or you can have a different output aspect used per each input aspect. This allows a simpler setup for users with moveable anamorphic lenses since they can have the 2.35 input aspect also select a 2.35 output aspect. Adds analog input A2D gain setting for the analog component inputs under Input:Analog Setup:A2D Gain.  Setting to "Reduced" should correct the Nintendo Wii white level issue.  Change in default mode setting for 1080sf24 (hsync setting changed from 44 to 88 gives better result on Qualia).  Bugfix on EDID that improves getting 1080p24 from sources (.ie PS3 on auto for 24p now works with Radiance EDID set to default). Bugfix for menu sometimes bouncing under certain situations. Bugfix for warmup test pattern.  Bugfix for audio source selection between different memories on same input. Several other small menu bugfixes.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 040808-  Bugfix for input video issue in the 040508 revision.
    Don't Use---occasionally when changing aspects input video is lost and Radiance must be turned off/on to restore....
Beta
Release 040508-  Adds non-linear stretch functionality and menu command for customization of NLS. The NLS remote button turns on NLS for the current input aspect and only if the current input aspect is 4:3 will NLS be performed. We will be enabling it for other input aspects later. To disable NLS for a 4:3 input aspect you need only to re-select the 4:3 input aspect. The NLS parameters for customization are under Input:Video Setup:RES:Size:ASPECT:NLStretch. Bugfix for BTB stripes in contrast pattern.  Bugfix for menu color when exiting color temp command. Changed default video edid to enable 24p,25p. Moved positions of some color temp and color gamut that were not already at the top so as to be readable when color probe is in use.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 031708-  Adds special command to disable the "24p output with non-24p source" message---press "menu 0917" to disable/enable it. Adds OSD disable/enable command to menu under Other:Menu control:OSD enable--the OSD refers to the small status message that pops up when pressing an input, zoom or aspect button. Changed default mode timing for 1080p24. Bugfix for Output timing command not reverting back to previous timing numbers when it should have. Fix for setting output color format on an inactive output config. Fix for a case of the OSD coming up with some red splotches on background.
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 031408-  Continued bugfix of a color overflow issue in 030208-031008 revisions. Bugfix for output copy not copying  output:color/hue settings as part of CMS. Bugfix for reference test patterns showing CMS settings (only adjustable patterns should show this). Bugfix for test patterns not filling screen with mismatched input and output aspect ratios. Fixes for setting output dither and output timings for inactive output configs.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 031008-  Bugfix for the rev 030208 bright white overflow issue. Adds the output config copy command to copy different parameters between output configs (under Output:Copy).  Adds the input labeling command (under Input:Label). Bugfix for switching between reference/adjustable patterns when either the reference or adjustable pattern has been left up (which is an easy way  to A/B CMS adjustments with internal patterns). Adds letter 'K' to rs232 interface to select 2.35 input aspect with no-zoom. Extra confirmation added to color temp command when exiting.
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 030208-  Adds linearized gamma before gamut correction and adds a gamma factor for adjusting gamma up or down (under Output:Configs:ConfigX:Color Mgmt: Gamma ) . After updating you will initially not have linearized gamma or the ability to adjust gamma-- you'll have to go into the "Color Gamut" command and "Set  Defaults" ( or you could do a total factory reset). You'll need to do "Set Defaults" for each output config you're using if you want to have linearized gamma into the gamut adjustment or adjust gamma for that output config. An example on using the new gamma factor setting: if you've measured your displays' gamma to be 2.2 and you prefer 2.4 then set the gamma factor to 1.1 (2.4/2.2 = 1.09)
Adds the input copy command for copying input settings between input memories.
Some improvements were made to the commands under the Color Gamut menu to make calibration a bit quicker. The biggest improvement is in the "By Color" adjustment where you can now directly enter a number as well as adjust with up/down arrows. Some precision improvements were made to the video datapath. The slow menu timeout was fixed (will keep menu commands up for 30 minutes). The video input level was moved up under the HDMI Setup (or Analog Setup) menu since its a per input setting. A 6 second timeout was added to the "Non 24p...." warning message.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 022008-  Adds programmable output timing for display modes (in menu at Output:Configs:ConfigX:Timing). Adds some more output modes to "Select Mode" command (1080p48 among others). Bugfix for RGB input types with PC levels causing color errors for dark colors. Bugfix for vertical chroma edges. Bugfix for yellow, cyan patterns in CMS. RS232 control of test patterns was fixed to work as before. Some other small changes.
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 020908-  Fixes 1080p24 output mode which was broken in 0207-0208 sw. Couple modes added to mode list, typo in mode list corrected.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 020808-  Fixes 1080sf24 output mode for use with 1080p24 sources.
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 020708-  Adds the output select mode command (Output:Configs:ConfigX:Select Mode ) for selecting output modes from a list. The list currently has 15 modes and we'll be adding many more. 1080sf24 is in the list and shows a display but is not running correctly yet (has tearing/judder). Bugfixes for 020108 sw (1080i deinterlacing and gamut/color temperature test pattern issues). .
[DOWNLOAD] Note: this sw has several bugs in it (one of them being 1080i-60 deinterlacing stutter--occurred as result of a change for 24p)...new update with fixes will be posted shortly...
Beta
Release 020108-  Adds 1080p24 output mode (currently only works well for 1080p24 sources). Press "menu 020" to load 1080p24 output mode. Adds white point to color gamut configuration. Adds window patterns (small & large)  to gamut and color temperature commands. Adds color window patterns (small & large) to test pattern command. Adds a test pattern with squares that are square for the current output aspect ratio called "Aspect Squares". The test pattern command now has some groupings of patterns so you still use the right/left arrows to cycle through the groups and press '4' to cycle through patterns in the group. Test patterns load onto the screen much more quickly.
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 011508-  Bugfix for the "By color" gamut command that would show wrong colors in some situations. Added menu timeout control to the menu under Other:Menu control. Several test patterns were left out of the 011408 update and they're back in.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 011408-  Couple of color gamut menu bugfixes. Corrected 100% smpte pattern and solid color fields in the "By color" gamut menu. Minor user interface improvement in the "By matrix" gamut command.
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 011308-  Bugfix for a color calculation error in 011208 release wherein certain color values would cause an error resulting in a color that would be obviously wrong.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 011208-  Replaces gamut matrix with 3D color look-up-table algorithm allowing calibration of primaries and secondaries as well as maintaining grayscale.  Can set up secondaries to be automatically calculated. The color points are set at 100% saturation.  Adds 100% color bar test pattern which goes well with setting up colors at the 100% points. Adds film mode setting under Input: Video Setup:XXX:Control:Deint which is useful for some PAL film sources.  Fixes and improves the output dither. Fixes a video/PC level issue in the 1217-1219 sw. Fixes a bug with video edid settings not being used if powered up on memories B-D. Fixes up incorrect timing for 540p output (set by pressing "menu 022")--in order to switch to the new timing if you're already set up for 540p you would need to switch to another mode like 480p ("menu 021") and then back. Other bugfixes. 
[DOWNLOAD]   Recommend not using---input video level for YCbCr broken and CMS changes still coming....Beta Release 121907-  Some bugfixes for the 121707 release: picture made worse in some cases, built in test pattern colors were undersaturated, gamut values had too small of an effect (they now have 4x the effect but upon doing the update they will get divided down by 4 so you won't have to divide them manually),  limit checks on the "by color" gamut entry method were not correct. Also for the "by matrix" gamut entry method the matrix was moved down from the center of the screen. 
[DOWNLOAD] Recommend not using---input video level for YCbCr broken and CMS changes still coming...Beta Release 121707-  Adds 2D/3D (aka temporal) noise reduction. Adds adaptive contrast enhancement. Adds directional sharpness and texture settings. The noise/contrast/sharpness settings are all found under the Input:Video Setup:XXX:Enhance menu. Modifies the primary gamut controls so that they now affect the secondaries and adds a direct matrix entry option in the menu.  Fixed some small color conversion errors in the video datapath.  Adds hotplug mode setting (under Input:HDMI Setup) for situations where the source does not tolerate hotplug retriggering for EDID updates.  Numerous bugfixes.
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 112307-  From around 111107-112207 some users were seeing issues with HDCP handshaking which made it take a while to get a picture. Some changes were made to improve this
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 112207-  Fixes a bug that sometimes would leave video off on composite or svideo inputs. Couple other bugfixes.
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 112007-  Another bugfix (fix mentioned in 111207 did not work for some cases) for switching output types and ending up with the incorrect one (would result in bizarrely colored video). Bugfix for adjustable test patterns sometimes not using the output settings. Other bugfixes.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 111207-  Fixes a bug that would occur in some cases when using YCbCr422 or 444 output type and switching between sources would give incorrect output type (resulting in bizarrely colored video). Also switching between HDMI input sources in some cases is faster. Couple other small bugfixes.
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 111107-  Continued cleanup of the 1107-1109 software.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 110907-  Fixes a bug in 1107-1108 sw that would often lose video when output refresh rate was changed between 50 and 60 Hz.
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 110807-  Fixes the "late update" bug in 110707 release.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 110707-    Bugfix for faint red line on right edge with 1080p out and 1080p in. Bugfix for many non-hdcp sources like AppleTV. Several audio bugfixes mainly for non-hdmi audio sources.  Several other small bug fixes. --late update----this version has a bug such that if you're watching an HDCP src and change the output resolution you won't see the video until you turn the radiance or display off and on (or unplug the display cable and plug back in)--we'll have this fixed asap.
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 110207-  Adds output type setting (RGB, YCbCr422, YCbCr444) in the output menu under Output:Configs:XXX: . Output type was previously always RGB so that's what you'll initially still be using unless you change it. Adds output dither setting next to the new output type setting. The output dither can make a difference for the YCbCr 422 output type if the display is using less than 12 bits, so you would set it to 8 or 10 bpp to match what the display is using. Also adds output color format setting which is only useful with the new YCbCr output types. The "auto" setting should be fine for this but if you suspect your display is using the wrong format it can be set manually to match. Adds the analog Scart input type for inputs 7-10 which you can set under the Input menu. Several small bugfixes.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 103007-    Primary color gamut has been significantly improved and the ability to toggle between viewing the primary color and the video source while making the adjustment was added to the command.
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 102507- Adds test patterns under the "Other" menu item. Test patterns can be left up as you modify settings though only output settings affect them since the intent is to calibrate the path from the Radiance to your display. Bugfix for incorrect color conversion when the input source was SD component (either HDMI or analog component inputs). Bugfix for HDMI audio not always working into a receiver/pre-amp. A bugfix for video stuttering when Radiance HDMI output was connected to a receiver/pre-amp but receiver/pre-amp was selecting another source. Other small bugfixes.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 102207-    Bugfix for new color temperature command not always removing the test pattern when returning to the main menu.
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 102107- Adds the color temperature command in the output menu under Output:Configs:XXX:Color Mgmt. Full field test patterns are available at the points being edited. Just cycle through the points with the arrow button to get to them. Couple small bugfixes.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 101807-    Bugfix for stuttering video with some HDMI sources. Doubles the range on primary gamut control. Bugfix for audio not initially being on for inputs set up with TOS/SPDF audio.  Bugfix for some menu timeout issues. Bugfixes for using non-HDMI audio inputs with HDMI video inputs. Current audio input now displayed in main menu. Other minor bugfixes. 
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 101107- Adds output color management menu under Output:Configs:XXX:Color Mgmt. Under this menu we've added primary color gamut adjustment controls. This commands allow adjustment of the primary colors and automatically fills the raster with the primary color being adjusted. You really need a color probe to do this adjustment correctly. Also under the new Color Mgmt menu we relocated the Output Level setting, put a placeholder for the Color Temperature command, and added an output Color/Hue command. The input Color/Hue command still exists but the new version in the output menu gives you one place to do color correction for the display. Then use the input Color/Hue command to make any necessary adjustment for source color/hue differences. So the effective color/hue applied to the video uses the output color/hue settings as the base and the specific input memories color/hue setting as an offset from that. Also, the input Color default was changed to 128 so although your color will not change the displayed value will be different by -16.
    Adds control of the output triggers in the menu under Other:Trigger Out. You can set either trigger to go high for Power, or input aspect settings of 4:3 or 2.35 for use with masking systems. Adds menu control of the LED found in the menu under Other:LED Setup. The LED now blinks either on or off when remote buttons are pressed.
    Bugfix for stuttering issue seen with Toshiba HD DVD players. Bugfix for composite inputs sometimes not locking onto source. Other small bugfixes.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 100807-    Bugfix for system hang that would sometimes occur with 1080p-60hz sources when operating the menu. 
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 100507- Adds the analog/TOS/coax audio inputs and coax audio output features. There are default audio inputs for each video input but you can match these them up any way you like in the menu under Input:Audio Setup: Source. Improvements to the Audio menu were made and there is now a list for user defined audio features instead of only allowing one feature to be set. Adds the auto power-on feature into the menu under Other:OnOff Action:Auto On . More audio bugfixes. There are some issues we're still working on  with the newly added analog/TOS/coax inputs going out on the HDMI outputs (not always working initially depending on audio receiver and previous HDMI audio type).
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 092507-    Bugfix for horizontal shift of image when downscaling and using 2.35 input aspect ratio. Bugfix for video noise occurring in some situations on inputs 5 & 6. HDCP on/off message added to info screen (pops up when you press "ok").  Adds 1080p-50 to user defined video edid. Other small bugfixes concerning audio. 
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 091707- Bugfix for 0915 sw problem where resolution changes on analog inputs would result in a blue screen. Fixed an audio bug for detecting 48<->96Khz changes (or other rate changes for that matter).
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 091507-    Adds much more HDMI control for audio/video. You can now send 1080p out to your display and the audio over the 2nd HDMI output to a pre-amp/receiver with a blank 1080i signal as well as passing back the audio devices EDID to your source. You could have the video go to output 2 as well but many pre-amp/receivers won't take 1080p. To set this up you would navigate in the menu to Output->Output2 and turn video off for output 2 for all inputs. Then under the Audio menu set up "Always" use "Out2 EDID" with at least HDMI2 audio output being on. Multi-channel PCM now works. Many audio related bugfixes.
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 082607- Bugfix for audio bug that due to audio format changes would result in audio loss and sometimes interruption of video on HDMI inputs. Please let us know on the Radiance beta forum if this fixes/improves your audio issue or not.
UPDATE: This update has mixed results for the described audio problem--feel free to give it a try but we're still working on a complete fix
UPDATE: This update does fix the described audio bug, the mixed result turned out to be a bad unit.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 081507-    Adds HDMI audio in with audio out on HDMI outputs only. Currently the default is 2 channel PCM. By setting the EDID (under Input:HDMI Setup: EDID Setup)  to passback from output 1 or 2 you can enable other audio formats that are supported by the downstream HDMI device. When you change the EDID setup you need to do a Save and power down and back up (to cause devices to read the new EDID information). Future updates will enable more audio capabilities. Also a small HDCP bugfix.
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 081107- Bugfix for setting EDID when on memories B-D (note currently the EDID setting is common across memories A-D currently). EDID audio setting was removed as it is moving to another location in menu and was not useable yet anyway. Several other small bugfixes.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 080907-    Bugfix for HDMI inputs not getting the right color for some sources, couple other small bugfixes. 
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 080807- Bugfix for snow on outputs under some situations when 2 outputs are connected. Bugfix for condition where 480/576 input only fills half the screen horizontally.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 080407-    Rev 080307 had an old fpga which only gets used if your previously loaded sw revision was earlier than 0725. If this old fpga got loaded you'll see bad video and menus so  run this update. Couple other small corrections
[DOWNLOAD] Don't use... Beta Release 080307-    Adds output config selection per input memory/resolution changes. Set up which output config to use in the menu under Input:Video Setup:RES:Out1 Select.  So for a given input memory and resolution (selected by the RES navigated to in the menu) you can select 1 of the 8 output configs. Output 2 is currently always a copy of output 1. Also, some bugfixes for auto color format detection with HDMI inputs.
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 073107- Adds level control for sidebars and top/bottom bars to the output menu (under Configs:config:Other:Graybar:Sides and Top/bottom. Several small bug fixes.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 073007-    Fixes up some bugs with the newly added edid command also resets any edid settings made with the 0728 sw. 
[DOWNLOAD]   Beta Release 072807- Adds video EDID controls for HDMI inputs in the input menu (under Input:HDMI Setup:EDID Setup:Video). You can use the default EDID which now enables YCbCr 422 and 444 color formats or choose to "passback" the EDID from either output or a "User Defined" mode lets you selectively disable features.  You can see what color format is being used on an HDMI input by checking the Info screen in the menu or pressing "ok" when the menu is not active.
[DOWNLOAD] Beta Release 072607-    Fixes a configuration bug in 0723-0725 that caused saved settings to be lost when updating from 0722 or earlier sw. Unfortunately if you already updated to 0723-0725 and reprogrammed your settings they will be lost again when you update to this or future updates. We're sorry for the inconvenience.
[DOWNLOAD] Don't use---caused loss of saved settings --Beta Release 072507-    Fixes a problem with 1080i-50hz output and certain input modes that gave a corrupted image. Fixes a problem with factory reset defaults on SD inputs for PAL sources which was in sw revs 0714-0723 (if you're seeing this problem then perform a factory reset by pressing "menu 0999" after updating to current sw). Improvements to sd video detection and other small bug fixes.
