    Update to v6.6.96.
    It's right there.
    If you installed any beta MP version, just uninstall it.

    Thanks' again for the quick response.

    Nope. Tried a clear data on MP6 but same result. The Icon is there but doesn't do anything.
    Next tried a factory reset. Now it is showing erasing but does not move ahead. Have seen that before.
    Had to do a forced power cycle which I hate to do. Next correctly booted up with the re-install procedure. :eek:

    OK now it works finally but can change the meter view only using touch control. The icon can't be accessed using the button control of my Neo X nor using the remote control. So some work left to be done on this.
    Do we get the White Meters back too as an option? Those were nice also.
    Please add some color/live to the spectrometer (it is a bit dull).

    Works fine Nice Monkey with mine.
    But I agree, we should have access to these Vu Meters by the remote control or the Zidoo Controller.

    Any chance for a Recovery Image for Neo Alpha?
    Always feels better to have one in the back pocket.

    For Neo X got it already:

    This seems to be a local chinese Alpha version and don't recommend installing it.
    The player keeps reporting there is new FW found and installs the same FW over and over again.
