Frequently Asked Questions:  
Q1. What does this update do?  
A1. This firmware update covers the following items.  
- Support for 1080p/24Hz output to the HD-XE1 and HD-EP10 player.  
- Additional on-screen language display options, improved network connectivity for supporting the  
download of web- enabled network content associated with certain HD DVD discs  
- and also addresses certain disc playback and HDMI/DVI related issues identified by Toshiba.  
Q2. Why do I need to turn on DHCP and DNS?  
A2. Turning on DHCP causes the player to automatically detect its IP address and other network  
information from your internet service provider's DHCP server. Turning on DNS causes the player to  
automatically detect the DNS server address associated with your internet service provider.  
Q3. I purchased an HD DVD disc that contains/has the capability of downloading web-enabled  
network content. What do I need to do to view this content?  
A3. First, be sure that you have properly configured the player's Ethernet port. If your Ethernet port  
is properly configured, perform the firmware update process to update the player's firmware to the  
latest firmware version. Once you have updated the player with the latest firmware, follow the  
directions that came with the HD DVD disc or that appear in the menu of the HD DVD disc. Should  
you experience problems viewing such content, please contact Toshiba Customer Service for your  
country.  
Q4. When I connect my HD DVD Player to my HDTV or HD Monitor using a HDMI to DVI adaptor  
cable or a HDMI to DVI adaptor, the output resolution of the player remains fixed at 480i. Does the  
new firmware address this issue?  
 
A4. This firmware update addresses the issue. Should you continue to experience problems,  
please contact Toshiba Customer Service for your country.  
Q5. The HDMI output does not work or works intermittently with the HDMI or DVI input on my  
HDTV or monitor. Does the new firmware address that issue?  
A5. The firmware update addresses and improves HDMI and DVI connectivity issues. If you still  
experience such issues, try disconnecting and reconnecting the HDMI cable. Make sure your  
display input is set to HDMI (or DVI). If your display has more than one HDMI/DVI input, make sure  
that all connected HDMI/DVI source devices are powered on (even if not in use). If none of these  
solve the issue, please turn off the TV and the HD DVD player. Check all connections. Disconnect  
and reconnect the HDMI cable. Turn on the TV first and then turn on the HD DVD player. Should  
you continue to experience issues, please contact Toshiba Customer Service for your country.  
Q6. During HD DVD playback I sometimes experience pixelization, block noise or audio dropouts.  
Sometimes playback freezes or stops. Sometimes, playback is not smooth. Does the new firmware  
address these issues?  
A6. This firmware update addresses various playability issues. You should also check to be sure  
that the disc is clean and, if the disc will not operate at all, that you are inserting the disc with the  
right side up. In the event that playback freezes or stops, press and hold the ON/STANDBY button  
on the front of the HD DVD player for approximately ten seconds. This will cause the HD DVD  
player to turn off. After the player turns off, turn the HD DVD player back on by pressing the  
ON/STANDBY button, and then press the OPEN/CLOSE button to remove the disc. Should you  
continue to experience issues, please contact Toshiba Customer Service for your country.  
Q7. Do I need to install prior firmware updates before installing the current firmware update?  
A7. No. The current firmware update includes all of the prior firmware updates.
