This could be explained if they intended to release it for only a small group of users which they direct to it because of a certain issue, after these people opened a support case. edit: but I do see them write: "Here is the beta version of firmware, please try it and let us know your comments" which seems to contradict my own theory! Sigh...they'll probably never learn to communicate properly.
I for one am not going to install it when I don't have a clue what they changed for what reason.
Only the ihm and dspm parts of the complete firmware package have changed. Rest is bit for bit identical.
I believe ihm is the 'Interactions Homme-Machine' (French: Human-Machine Interactions)' part so responsible for the user interface of the Devialet (menu's, screens etc.). DSPM was never a part of the D-Premier so it must be the software running in the new DSP of the D120/200/250.
Here's my wild guess. The IHM update is to allow the 120/200/250 to be controlled by Spark/Dialog. I suspect an update is coming for both of those products.
I can't comment on any changes in sound, but my D200 seems to boot up faster.
Id say you're pretty spot on with the connection of the interface file to Spark/Dialog.
One wonders if Spark will eventually become the devialet remote regardless of phantom or dialog ownership.
It would make sense to merge the code and have a singular app.
