@StevieB I'm new as well and the experts will jump in with an answer but since the stock firmware is available for A, B, C, and D versions, there is no risk in trying one since you can always revert back as long as you don't have an unknown E version, assuming that exists. When you type your...

There are experts on here that can probably confirm but I'd say yours is a D version based on the 4th & 5th digits being 25. Latest working D firmware is here: https://tinkerdifferent.com/threads/hacking-the-kodak-reels-8mm-film-digitizer-new-thread.4885/post-43847 This version has better...

What are the first 5 digits of your serial number?

I apologize if my last few posts confused some. For clarification, I have a type D unit, serial number H2825 and I'm trying the @videodoctor new drops. This post is to report on the drop from post #513 For this drop, after initialization, the expected screen displays but the unit is...

I'm a little hesitant to post because I might not be able to get back on for another day but I hope this helps. I downloaded the firmware in post #509 and followed the procedure to update the reels unit. Firmware loaded and looked normal but the control buttons did not scroll through any...

Thank you for pointing this out! I've been following the thread but somehow missed that there was a relatively stable test branch of the Type D firmware. I had been using the stock firmware and then using ffmpeg as suggested in an earlier post to adjust the frame rate back to 18 frames per...

I have a feeling time is a bigger hurdle than not having the D unit but I'm willing to contribute to the fund. The 20% off sale is back on for the time being on Amazon: https://amzn.to/4c8GFbb Not sure how to guarantee we'd get a D unit though.

Hello. I stumbled onto this thread while looking for a place to have super 8 movies digitized and I decided to get the Kodak Reels and try it myself. I selected an actual storefront instead of a strictly online vendor thinking I might get an older unit but I ended up with the "D" version...
