Anthem: Latest bugs, er, Genesis


Anthem has updated the room correction software, but getting it working is a stupid PITA due to lack of documentation.  To get it working you have to go into the Web interface and turn on automatic as well as BETA updates.  Then let it finish the firmware upgrade process. 

Super counter intuitive because the first time I did a FW upgrade I could NOT use the web, had to do it via the remote/TV menu.  This time you can ONLY do it via the Web. 

The only major improvement I can see is the built-in distance setting which is hopefully more accurate than using a tape measure.  Based on prior testing, tape measures were off 4" or so from correctly aligned.  Long story, but in any event, this feature is now built in.  Good luck.

Hey,

 

Yeah, it's not just surround, but yeah, it IS annoying that with my LG CEC must be enabled or we get NO audio output.  I don't get it at all.

@mike_in_nc I feel swindled, bamboozled I say!! I didn't know it was beta. I may have missed that messaging, I thought it just said there was a new version available.   Damn fine print!    😂
