Thanks, but none of it applies.
I described all the symptoms above and there’s no way to do any of what You suggested.Otherwise, I would have tried them.
I backed up the data and formated the player before the FW update. Maybe I should have resetted it before running the update, also.
One other thing I could try, is to put the update hex to the SD card and try to boot from that. Not sure, if the player manages, though.
Will tell later, how it went.
