I got my new Beo5 today, firmware is 1.40a which refuses to download Configuration Files created with Config Tool v1.30.

Anybody knows a solution to this problem?

Is there a "changelog" what's different in the new firmware and in the new config tool?

 

Perhaps it solves some problems (like mine) where  the Beo5 refuses to get the configuration ...:-(

I noticed new firmware doesn't send the commands of third party xml files. I hope it's my fault, but it doesn't look well.
