Hi

my iStar 1.1 (with active fan) have small problem now - after some time output went black and box don't react.

Restart help sometimes but sometimes I must just wait some time.

It looks like overheating or something like this. Front panel is not hot but is warm.

Is this problem known and is there some way how to fix it ? I can change fan or make few more holes and/or improve airflow with some kind of air tunnel or deflektor but I want be sure before I cut in case.

Is there temperature sensor which can be somehow readed from linux and telnet ?

so I tries update to new firmware (just to be sure that it is not a bug in fw) and result is (after successfully finished fw update) bricked player

Do somebody know where can I download recovery file for last fw ?

ok, so it is not bricked but need be plugged off voltage for couple of minutes to start working.

Looks little bit strange for me :-(
