Microchip PIC24FJ64GA004-I/PT 16-bit microcontroller

  • Used to handle IR input/output for remotes/IR blasters and possible interface with wireless keyboard

Update Procedure

Place new update labeled "update.zip" on a USB drive, with a single partition (ie, 1st partition on a USB disk, so say "/dev/sdc1")

Insert into Revue in the Right most USB port (if looking at the back, closest to the power jack)

Boot into recovery mode: (confirm?)

Hold the Sync button while plugging in the Revue, keep it held, at the same time hold Menu+L on the keyboard.

Box will reboot, continue to hold Sync button, then hold Alt+L (or mash, your choice), and it should then enter recovery mode.

You can then, update the box. Downgrading fails (date check)
