Applicable Models: HD-E1, HD-XE1
Overview:
As part of our commitment to provide world-class services to our customers, Toshiba is supplying this firmware update for use by purchasers of Toshiba HD DVD Player models HD-E1 and HD-XE1. This firmware update addresses certain disc playback and HDMI/DVI related problems identified by Toshiba.
How to obtain and install the update:
If you have a broadband internet service, you may obtain the firmware update over the internet using the Ethernet port on the back of your HD DVD Player.

Set out below is an overview of the process:
- BEFORE BEGINNING THE FIRMWARE UPDATE PROCESS, BE SURE TO REMOVE ANY DISCS FROM YOUR HD DVD PLAYER.
- Follow the directions in your owner’s manual to configure the Ethernet port. You may need to turn on DHCP and DNS.
- After you have configured the Ethernet port, follow the directions in the owner’s manual to check for a firmware update.
- If a firmware update is available for your player, it will take about 20 minutes to download and install. Once the firmware update download process has finished, the player’s power will automatically switch off. You must wait until this process has finished.
- DO NOT UNPLUG, TURN OFF, OR USE ANY OTHER FEATURE OF YOUR PLAYER DURING THE FIRMWARE UPDATE PROCESS. Doing so will cause the writing of the firmware update to the player to be halted and the player may no longer operate properly. If the player stops working, please contact Toshiba Customer Service on 01159 766958.
- If no firmware update is available, the player will quickly exit the update process.
