From the above and other threads, do I gather that upgrading the firmware erases the RC profiles in the G68? If so, then all you should need to do is reload them - no need to re-run the setup sweeps.

Also, where are the individual volume settings for each radio channel (mentioned in the release notes) in the new Mconfig program?

No, the firmware update doesn't erase the RC DSPs on the 68. However, I haven't found a way of getting the filter data into new Mconfig in order e.g. to build new RC filters/profiles. Not such a big issue, I problably need to make some new mesasurements in any case.

The newer versions of MConfig are dramatically improved with their integration of the MRC measurement/calculation process that that's probably a good idea anyway [Linked Image from softronix.com]

Best,

Is the starting point to fetch an 861 program with the new configuration program or do the settings have to be entered manually?

Odyssey,

The starting point is to retype, then upgrade the firmware. You'll need to start over on the 861 I'm sorry to say. After this though, I'm thinking you won't need to redo your config file from scratch again.

That being said, once you get used to MConfig it really doesn't take too long to get things done [Linked Image from softronix.com]

Lipsync upgrade.. Ok so where is it!

Just downloaded firmware release 1.3 for my G68 and it won't let me increase lipsync above the previous limit of 30ms. Have I missed something? Gotta say that its a bit unnerving watching firmware downloads as they progress with a 'bad program' message that is until the final element! Anyone else managed to get the improved lipsync?

Did you do a MConfig update as well?

On my 1,5 months old G68J I can select >30ms on the unit itself, but not yet in MConfig.

Well for the 1st time now i have all the correct units in place as before my G68J was labeled as an ADV in the config menu so it all looks fine now "fingers crossed"... [Linked Image from softronix.com]

Having now sat in front of my computer for some time being confused, I have now found out why my post above seems to be a bit silly. I still have the original version of Mconfig on my machine in the directory \Meridian\Config with the icons in my start menu pointed to Mconfig.exe in this location.

The new version installs into the \Meridian\Mconfig directory but did not install new icons pointing here. I have thus been looking at the old version all along! DOH!

On fixing this, I agree with the comments from Cliff ref. the inability to read tuner settings and RC from files. I can't see how to import the profiles either.

A shining new MConfig it is! [Linked Image from softronix.com]

The update and RC was done from a friend's computer, what should I do to get all to my laptop? I just have the .msl file at the moment and the programs aren't updated.

Tommy, if you want to be absolutely sure that no old stuff interferes.. Uninstall all Meridian software and delete the old install directory.

Then install this: http://www.Meridian-audio.com/download/setup.exe

Tuner settings I can help you with.

As you get closer and closer to the end, there's a breadcrumb for tuner settings for G68 (or G91 in my case). You will have an option on that screen to Save settings or Load Settings. I think the file extension is .mst.

I believe that MRC data is stored within the MSL files these days, but I could be mistaken.
