Today I can see a new firmware is available through TV settings.

But, I do not see this available for download and install from usb.

@Sony.4k and anyone else eith Netflix.  What content is there in HDR on Netflix at this moment?  Is there a different between regions (i.e. US to UK)?

[sony.4k]

As of now, in the UK Netflix, I could only see Marco Polo listed as being 'HDR'. All other 4K titles are listed as '4K UltraHD'. Will try the US later on and will post back.

Yep, Netflix seems to be up and running again.  Confirmed that it now works for me, when it didnt before.  nothing changed my end, presume Sony/Netflix resolved this

Just checked and my '55 loaded with no problems.  I don't use netflix so that doesn't concern me.

It would be nice to see the release notes and discover what the benefits of the upgrade are meant to be.

Triggered the upgrade on my '49 anyway, as the servers are quiet at this time of night.

Let's just hope they haven't broken anything important....

Still not working for me 😞 

I will try restoring to default settings this evening after work to see if that helps get rid of any lingering bugs.
