Serious bug on 1.1.0 [Overheating] <- Fixed in v1.1.01

Thanks for all the suggestions.

But I’ll like to reiterate the two key points:

  1. Most devices support HDMI CEC by default. Not just Apple TVs (e.g. PlayStations and NVIDIA Shields). Leaving this feature on the PP Max unfixed and enabled by default may put people at risk of a significant safety issue as a result of overheating.

  2. Based on some threads by other people in this forum (Search: CEC), it appears that a unit may have damaged as a result of this bug, and another case where the unit was so hot that they had trouble holding down the power button to turn it off .

This raises another concern, on whether the device has a safety mechanism to shutdown automatically in event of a cooling failure / overheat.

Not everyone who purchased/funded this projector is as tech-savvy as most of us here.

I’m not trying to be an alarmist here, but this projector will be placed in many bedrooms and living rooms, sometimes with kids around. Any potential for an overheating concern can become a safety issue.
