    Sigmatek 500 HD firmware upgrade available here:

    http://www.touslesdrivers.com/index.php?v_page=23&v_code=26398&v_langue=en

    Click on the download box half way down page. When downloaded, extract rar file and put on USB memory stick. Turn off Sigmatek, Stick USB in back of sigmatek, turn on box, go to installation menu,installation,Firmware update via usb and press ok.

    When finished, restart box. Box will return to default french settings.

    DO NOT ATTEMPT IF YOU HAVE CONNECTED TO TV VIA SCART.

    Box returns defaulted to hdmi, if you have no hdmi connection you will not see menu to setup box again.

    Main difference i see is the remote is more responsive.
    Adds Support for audio Dolby Digital Plus (AC3+) via HDMI. This may prove useful in the future for Irish DTT.

    Thanks for the info.

    Does this upgrade improve lip sync?

    I applied the firmware upgrade and install completed successfully.

    However the volume control now is effectively disabled. It displays on screen okay and visually changes up and down but the sound level remains unchanged.
    I have tried changing all the audio parameters but the problem persists.

    :confused:

    Anybody seen this problem?
