Post-Update Checklist

✅ Re-enter IPTV portal URL (if not automatically restored).
✅ Reconnect Wi-Fi and test streaming.
✅ Check audio sync and video resolution (Settings → Display → Resolution).
✅ If using MAC-based IPTV, note your MAC address remains unchanged (hardcoded).

Note: Only restore a database if the update was a minor revision (e.g., v1.2 to v1.3). Jumping from v1.0 to v2.0 requires a fresh scan.

Channel Frequency Changes: Broadcasters frequently change their transmission parameters. An old software version may lose track of these frequencies, causing "No Signal" errors on previously working channels.
Bug Fixes: From audio sync issues to EPG (Electronic Program Guide) glitches, updates patch the bugs that frustrate everyday users.
Security Patches: Older firmware may have vulnerabilities to signal injection or malware.
New Codec Support: As broadcasting moves from MPEG-2 to MPEG-4 (H.264) or even H.265 (HEVC), your Jetron box needs software updates to decode these video streams.
Interface Improvements: New menus, faster navigation, and better blind scan speeds.
