karlw Posted April 24, 2018 Report Share Posted April 24, 2018 The new 2.0 Update offers iXML Header Support, which allows for recordings to contain industry-standard iXML data in the file headers, enabling easy handling in typical editing software. And Filesystem Protection adds provisions to protect recorded data on the Micro SD card when users mount the card onto a computer. The menu structure has also been updated with some items moved to submenus, including Timecode, SD Card, and “Settings, which is designed to allow for quicker and easier navigation for users. Additional functional enhancements provided by the Firmware Update include: — Timecode can now be copied from the internal real-time clock. — Scene and take numbers can now be manually entered, and are embedded in the filenames and iXML headers of recordings. — Take number automatically increments each time the record button is pressed. File browsing and playback can now be organized by file or by scene and take. And the PDR now understands recordings made in SMWB Series transmitter/recorders and can list their format, length, timestamp information, etc. (Note that the PDR cannot play SMWB recordings because of the sample rate mismatch.) For greater convenience, recording segment size has been increased from approx. 200 MB to 4 GB. On the largest SD card size supported (32 GB), the maximum number of segments a single recording can have is 8. And finally, the two original file naming templates (“Clock Time” and “Sequence”) have been enhanced.

Gordonmoore1 Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Recorded a 3 hours meeting with my PDR last week with the new firmware - nice to get a single wav file instead of a bunch of them. Last night during a narrative recording session for a short video I'm doing, the battery went dead just as she finished the last take. The recovery algorithm worked perfectly. Whew! And you can put in meta data now - (yay!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel McIntosh Posted September 10, 2020 Report Share Posted September 10, 2020 I have a recently acquired PDR. The firmware is v2.10. I want to update it to v2.12. Can you confirm that this will not cause the headphone jack to mute when in Record? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlw Posted September 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2020 Hi Daniel, PDR firmware v2.12 was released in October, 2019 and does not cut off the headphone output while recording. Sincerely, -Karl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
