Additionally, the patched driver should save the life of these devices by not flashing the configuration every time player runs -- only when the configuration is different than what's stored on the device. https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=433166&aid=2136885&group_id=42445 I have tested this in Player > 2.1. I'm not sure if the patch applies to Player 2.0.x. Good luck, Patrick Beeson |
