Thank you so much for this update! I have been using your previous update, but the 16fps for all my regular 8mm is a god send!. I did have one lockp issue only about 1 min into scanning. Had to pull the power plug to get it to stop, but since then, it has been working great. I have scanned...

I was only suggesting the D stock firmware because you already have a unit that cannot function. I have a D unit myself. There is different hardware in the D units compared to the older ones. As far as I know (could be wrong though) people who have flashed the wrong versions were able to...

Have you tried installing the D stock firmware? It cannot hurt anything at this point.

Thank you melw! This drop (605) works great on my D unit with the lense mod. I can tell the quality of the scan is better, and a lot larger (file size) than the previous D mod firmware. I have not tried your latest release, but I only use 32G cards and I format the cards in the Reels scanner...

I believe the stock "D" firmware is downloadable in post 143.

I did not open up the unit for the lens mod. I removed the old lens and sercured the ribbon cable out of the way. Then used a hobby knife to very carefully score the plastic until I could work it back and forth to "snap" the plastic I needed to remove. The knife never went all the way through...

This is what my model D records now on regular 8mm. It does Super 8mm just fine. Any ideas? I have already done the lens mod, but it was working about a week before this happened. It shows this, or some other type of corruption even if there is no SD card in the scanner.

New issue now. When I switch to 8mm from Super 8mm, the screen corrupts and will not show anything in the capture section of the menu in the preview mode or in capture mode. If I back out of capture mode, the screen returns to normal and all menu options work as they should. Have flashed...

Ok, I did the lens swap/mod and I am on the firmwre "D" mod. But now I cannot zoom out enough to see the entire frame and sprocket holes. Everything focuses fine, after some trial and error. I bought the 12mm lens in the link on the lens mod. I do have a "D" unit, so I don't know if that is...

Post #225 seems to be stable for version D. Is there a more recent firmware for version D? My biggest thanks to everyone who is working on this project! I am willing to test version D if there are new versions available. I can't make any adjustments during scanning on this version, unless I...

Just received by Reels from the Amazons. The SN is: H2825148BK001.. I'm assuming this is a "D" model. Once I get the film from my dad, I will test it out on stock settings to make sure everything is working and I can sync the audo with the used Elmo super 8 projector that also...

Hello all, new to the forum, and have ordered a Kodak Reels from the Amazons to scan a bunch of 8mm and Super 8mm with sound. I'm guessing I will receive a D version, so I'm hoping there will be some modified firmware I can use for a better scan. Thank you to everyone who has contributed to...
