Software Update v1.1.0 is available now

See here: Ability to fine-tune colour settings, especially @Philips_Support_P’s post here: Ability to fine-tune colour settings

That color management app hasn’t been publicly released yet. Maybe they gave up on it? He already mentioned on January 16: “An app to fine-tune the colour is being released to beta testers and will soon be available […]”, too.

I’m really not sure why this doesn’t seem to be a priority anymore (and doesn’t seem to actually ever have been released) as these are main basic settings and users should easily be able to tweak them if they want to.

In any case, I’ve been eagerly waiting for it since then and always been disappointed when it once again didn’t show up in the new FW’s changelogs.

Ah, okay, that one.

If you filled the beta application form, @Philips_Support_P will find it and add you to the beta group, at which point you can get this app.

Update downloaded. Noise level much much better now. Power safe mode is almost silent! Very nice! :+1::+1: Next update on color adjustments and Pico Pix Max will be 5/5.

Extremely impressed with the update.

Very noticeable GPU performance improvement. All apps including Netflix, YouTube, Hulu and Prime Video will play smoothly with no issues with judder or stuttering.

60fps videos that were once unplayable will now play smoothly as intended.

UI is fluid as well. Congrats on the developers that are making this happen. Thank you!

Wow the fan noise is down for sure , by so much that it’s scary, haven’t had the chance to test and monitor it for long will do that tonight, but it appears the fan is not even on, had a quick measure with the decibel reader on the Apple Watch and all 3 modes are the same at around 37 decibels, is this normal? my room temperature is about 16-17 so maybe the temperature is not considered high enough for the fan to kick in yet? I hope that’s the case will run it for longer tonight to see

This was a remarkable update! Thanks! So far, the only slight negative experience with the projector had been the fan noise, so this update made the viewing experience a lot better.

Sorry quick question, didnt see it in the list, so just asking.

Which version update for manual keystone configuration in HDMI mode and USB C.
I did read somewhere v1.1.xx

When you switch between modes the fan takes a few seconds to adapt.

This one, 1.1.0, already allows manual vertical keystone adjustment which carries over to all sources internal or external.

I update to new firmware offline but the bulb is very dim and no picture at all

What should i do ??

Agreed, this is a great update, it is almost silent in normal mode now which is wonderful for quiet scenes. I love the new quick access to settings too. There is one addition I’d like to request to the quick access, and that is the mounting setting (to flip the picture for ceiling mounting) - I do this all the time.

After update it freeze no projection and no response
Could you please advise

There’s no shortcut for that yet, it’s being worked on. Use the Image shortcut which will take you there in 3 presses.

Very Nice update. Well done guy’s!

Initially, it was stuck at 0% for several minutes. After I clicked the “Retry” button, the update downloaded within few minutes. Rebooted itself and successfully updated firmware.

My PPMax is in Energy Saving mode and connected to power. A short while after it booted up, the fan sound disappeared. I could hardly hear the fan sound even after I put my ear next to the air vents. This is amazingly quiet. For reference, I am in Singapore and temperature here is now 27°C at around 7:00am.

Congratulations to @Philips_Support_P and team for this achievement. Thank you very much.
