my Mp4 player has a firmware version of:

PMA300-006
2005/11/04

RYJ-3.5.35

I wanted to know if its worth upgrading the firmware.
If so, which version?

Updating firmware on your player is very risky. I wouldn't recommend it as the hassels involved with recovering a 'dead player' if flashed with an incompatible firmware is a nuisence and time consuming.

In some cases, recovering a dead player from incorrectly flashing your player with an incompatible firmware might render is completely dead instead.

So there is a high risk of that happening. Updating the firmware to a new version won't guarantee you will get new or updated features.

Majority of players are DIFFERENT and majority of firmware is specific to player or MPx manufacturer.

Thank you for that info. admin.

I will not now try & update the firmware based on your advice.

Once again
