Firmware Upgrade
It is possible that these updates will provide features not covered in this guide. Details of new features will be available at www.magictv.com ➜ Support.
Magic TV™ uses a safe firmware upgrade process. The previously working firmware will only be overwritten if the upgrade firmware is successfully loaded. This process safeguards against power cuts and similar interruptions.
Automatic Upgrade over the Internet
If Magic TV™ is connected to the internet (see Network Connection and Network Setup), upgrades will normally be downloaded and installed automatically.
When new firmware is available a message will be shown when you next switch Magic TV™ on. You will be asked if you want to upgrade to the new firmware.
If you select ‘Yes’ you will see the following progress bar.
Caution: It is important that the power to Magic TV™ is not interrupted during the upgrade process.
Once the firmware has been upgraded, Magic TV™ will restart automatically.
