I noticed these different version on TV and BD - but: When I got my Bravia TV last year, the iplayer was exactly the same as the BD370 version is, which has the connection quality option in a setup option, and displays the BBC HD channels if selected HQ. Then in one of the updates at some...

John Cobb: Hi all, I would like to update you on the current situation regarding software updates for our latest range of BluRay players. The new version of software for BDP-S470/570 will be available for download as of tomorrow 18th August. The version for the BDP-S370 will be made...

Well the time is up and suprise surprise no update that I have seen. Even if they are struggling to fix this it would only be polite to update by the time mentioned, to let everyone know. Has anyone heard anything at all?

riggit: Dupes, If you look a few a dozen or so posts back Sony have stated they should have a fix ready by Mid August. This explains why most have gone quiet, just waiting for a fix and hopefully this time it works. DOH - did not see that through the fog of disappointment and annoyance...

Hi Andy/anyone I was wondering if there was any news from Sony on this fix - maybe they have an idea of timescales now - how long this will take? All seems to have gone very quiet from them, so I hope they are not just seeing if this will go away - they have now had long enough to completely...

So some more news - the 'fix' will work with certain TV's as it was designed for certain models as Sony only thought it was certain ones effected - even though they were told different. Frankly I am disgusted with them. I asked for a refund, and I will be picking this up with the CTSO for...

But then grandma etc is not likely to have a wireless network or maybe even internet, so what do you do then! I think you might be able to request the update disk be posted to you by Sony, but not sure and they don't advertise that. There is a lot of pressure to release products quickly, but...

Hi Andrew/Anyone - has there been any further update from Sony? For example a estimated date on a full fix? Last time they advised a rough date? I have not had any reply (other than automated confirmation email) to logging this again on the Sony support site to say its still not fixed. Thanks

yep think mine was 78 - maybe had other updates as well to download? Anyway it took a while and took a while to install once updated. Hoping we will get some news soon. I have written again to Sony. I encourage you all to write again to them to advise the problem is not fixed.

Sterling stuff, thanks again Andy for the updates - everything is crossed for some definitive fix news soon!

Andrew Everard: The Sony engineers are monitoring this thread, but they aren't writing the software themselves, but rather receiving updates from elsewhere in Sony. They are, however, working on finding a solution to the failure of the latest update to resolve the situation. Cheers Andy I...

rtmcg/Perspecta seems that you might be right, at least for Iron Man blu ray, or EX503 and BDP-S370 via hdmi! Its better, sync is better for sure, but still not zero drop outs. So 1 hr 36 mins through Iron man BD and I have so far had one drop out at about 24 mins in, so far....correction just...

Did you update by disc or is it connected to the internet by cable/the sony dongle? The disc update method is trikier than the unit auto updating - maybe redo the whole process if by disc? Just an idea, not doubting your ability Check of the verison number should indicate that.

I have updated mine and have the same equipment and set up as you, and so far it seeems to have cured it. Full DVD no drop out and 45 mins of Dark Knight Blu Ray was now fine. Also think the snyc issue mentioned above seems better as well I had noticed this on avatar. So well chuffed. Did you...

Andrew Everard: rc789:Alas, good news. You're upset at the good news? 'At last..good news?
