Hi Dana,


Wonderful, thank you! Do you know whether the menu layouts are in the
same order for each player variant? e.g. x number of clicks up or down
will take me to the version information, firmware upgrade screen, etc?


Thanks for such a helpful response.

Steve

It depended on what made sense for that specific functionality. (If that makes sense - Hah!)
