FourDoor Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 The west disks were in .rar files. People having problems with file sizes after uncompressing could be using an older version thats not uncompressing properly as well. The West disk that is in .rar format is the N5 disk! The West .iso is the ACTUAL CNDV-80MT! make sure you navigate to the proper one! Ahhh crap. It looks like the files I downloaded from the FTP were the N5 disks then. Redownloading now...

SuperH Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 yeah, looks like someone did something to it! It was almost 8 GB. I downloaded the "West" disc and got 7.93GB. When unzipping the "East" disc, I got 7.61GB from a 3.36GB zip file. Everything seems alright for me. I am burning the discs with Mac OS X's Disc Utility now. Hey, I'm using Mac too. Has anyone had any luck burning with the Mac I kept getting a read error after I burned my disks and put them in the D3. Yes. I simply used the Disc Utility built into OS X. It worked just fine. Load the ISO, select "Burn". Quote Link to post Share on other sites
athanato Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 My D3 is messed up after updating. After I updated my D3 with the east disc and everything works but my disc mode navigation screen is gone and I cannot get it back, it's hidden and I cannot restore it. All I see is the song title and folder name on the bottom of the screen. I press on the screen like you normally would to restore it but nothing happens. Any ideas? I run a DVD full of mp3's so using the skip buttons on the face is not realistic. Oddly the menu is fine in Radio mode. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rotun Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 Did you reset the unit after upgrading? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

offroaderf150 Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 i just downloaded it and burned it! it works on my d2! horray! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ReedH Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 Same Here, I downloaded the West.iso with FIREFOX (Internet Explorer does not work for some reason) and burned it with ALCOHOL 120% with the recording settings set to Book as DVD-ROM. I burned it at maximum speed and had no problems. I stuck it in my N1 and it updated right away. Thanks to everyone for their posts on here with advice and thanks to jlong for hosting.

axxman Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 thank you. Someday when I grow up I want to have a server just like Rotun's. FiOs is being installed monday so step 1 is underway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SuperH Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 Gosh, this was so much easier on a Mac. I just drug the iso to "Disc Utility", highlighted it, and selected "Burn". Three weeks using this as my primary system. I love Windows Vista Ultimate x64 and all, but the power of UNIX in OS X definitely awakens the nerd in me. And, it's extreme application simplicity is just too cool. D3 operation is successful using both discs. I upgraded with the WEST disc, and it worked fine. The unit seems faster. XMX now has a channel logo! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
vdn20 Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 when I burned it and put it in, it seems to update it, but I can't use the gps. anyone have any ideas why? I have the D3. also, can someone that actually got it to work, tell me how did you burn the disc because I burned 3 of them but it didn't really work right. Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
axxman Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 well I may have saved on buying the discs but now I have to go out and get an external dvd dl burner cuz my pc with a burner is locked away in storage 700 miles away. oh well its always nice to get new hardware.

athanato Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 Did you reset the unit after upgrading? For some silly reason I though I needed the remote to reset , fixed now that I re-thought about it, thx. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's what I did to my friends N1, then I found out the new firmware requires soldering to get the dvd to play while driving! Yeah, that was necessary a couple of updates ago. I think the CNDV-60 disks required that(maybe 50). I soldered mine a while back. It's not too hard as long as you have a good(small) solder tip. The hardest part is doing all the research before hand so that you don't make a mistake of soldering something incorrectly. Also, I've only watched a DVD one time while driving since I soldered it 2 years ago...lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
