My Mictrotracker just died! firmware 1.4.6

With this new firmware I do not need to press REC twice to start recording. For me there were more error messages using the old firmware - like media full or not the correct speed.

You don't have to push record twice with firmware 1.4.3 .

It depends on your CF card.  My original Kingston 45x card works without a glitch, as does my Hitachi microdrive.  My newer Kingston 45x card (which I really was the same as the earlier Kingston card) probably at least half the time comes up with "Media Full" when I first press record, even though I've just formatted the card.  Then I need to hit record a second time, and it all works fine -- no "Media Full" messages.

I'm still on 1.4.3.  When I stop being lazy, I'm going to upgrade to 1.4.5, which I hope will stop the media full messages and allow me to record just be hitting the record button once.

yeah, My old kingston 4g 45x card records wikth just one hit, but my new kingston 4g 45x card always says media full so I hit record twice and it works, kind of funny. Hopefully when  my new MT shows up, it wont die when I up the new firmware to it, lol

they should send you a brand new one, and it will have all the latest firmware on it. the reason i know this is because the exact same thing happened to me. i was uning the transend 8gb cf card though. they were rather nice about everything even got it shipped out sooner with a little sweet talking. +t for your troubles
