Optoma Ml500 Firmware Downgrade
I downloaded a firmware from a post here on the site on my old ML500. The firmware took away the media menu to where now I can't access the firmware update menu. I have the update firmware to restore it back. But the link to the firmware that was posted on this sight I downloaded does not have any option to install firmware. I can access the projector main menu. But there is no option to update firmware. The poster should of mentioned that by using the firmware in the link you loose future firmware updates or restore options.
