everything normal here :up

So far only thing I've noticed is AM21 still stays powered on when shutting down. Haven't lost video on this release (yet). H23-600.

L.G.M.

Still seeing the issue with my H21-200 turns itself back on in the wee hours of the morning (or should I say that it wakes itself up from sleep?).

I haven't tested playing a video yet. I will do that in the next couple of days.

H21-200

everything looks ok. :up

 

[berck]

Ok, playback looks better. I did find something odd though. I got a recording that had three bad spots for some reason. On the HR unit, it would just skip a few seconds and keep going. The H21-200 had major problems. It just froze for a while. I tried a number of times to skip over, and eventually it would.
