Great news about the firmware update 

Has anyone tried it yet?

If so:

Do all the files that used to play still work?

Does it address the AVI out of sync problems that a lot of people have ?

Thx

Hi ECF,

Great news and thanks for the update.  I also noticed that Server 1.10 is out and has better support for Vista.  I've downloaded this and will provide further feedback. 

Downloaded Firmware 1.06 to my Media Player and I am now enjoying full HDMI support.  Exactly what I wanted!!!!!! 

Cheers!

I buy a DSM-520 on feb/2009 and update the firmware to 1.06.
The HDMI connection doesn´t work. The TV is a Samsung HDTV.
How I can resolve this problem?

You actually have to switch the DSM-520 in the setup to HDMI.  That means you'll have to temporarily use the component connection to make the change.  I have a Samsung HDTV and it will work.

I have done yet what you wrote. The HDMI option were signed on the setup, and the TV image not appears.

I'm not sure I entirely understand. 

Were you able to see the picture using the component output?  When you switch to HDMI the picture will blank out.  On my Samsung I have to switch the TV to HDMI. 

There is a reset button so if you aren't seeing anything press the reset button for a few seconds and that will set the unit back to component.

I´m able to see the picture when I use the s-video connection on the TV. When I switch to the option HDMI in the DSM-520 and in the TV too (HDMI1 in the TV rear panel), the message "Incompatible signal" appears on the TV screen.
If I use the option component on DSM-520 and HDMI1 on TV, the image appears with the wrong colors.

also do a search on DSM-520 and HDMI on avsforum.com.  Firmware 1.06 was supposed to fix issues that others had.

BTW...on my Samsung...the colors will look wrong but after about 10 seconds the color corrects itself.
