  1. Download the .zip file.

  5. After you have finished the upgrade for the "Launcher" firmware, you will be given two choices: "Official" and "GPL". Select "Official" to upgrade WDTV Official Firmware or select "GPL" to upgrade GPL/Modified Firmware.
  6. Put Official or GPL Firmware onto the USB drive and plug it into the product.
  7. Press the "OK" button to upgrade the firmware or press the "HOME" button to cancel the upgrade process.
  8. If the firmware version is not greater than your current version (.ver file), the system will not detect the new firmware.
  9. Select "Yes" to proceed to next step, otherwise select "No".
  10. If you upgrade to the GPL Firmware, a "Warning" message will appear. Please read it carefully and recognize the risks before you proceed to next step.
