Core Infinity board

[IanG-UK]

I got this from Thierry Massoubre this morning:

- - - - - - - - - - -
The Core ∞ module needs to be installed in your Devialet Expert Pro in France for several reasons:
- The module replaces 2 modules inside the Expert and the installation, though not difficult, is a precise operation since there are many connectors underneath the board.
- We will take this opportunity to do a few modifications on the motherboard to improve the performance of your unit
- We will give the possibility to add an external WiFi antenna
- We will reprogram your remote control to improve the stability of operation.
- - - - - - - - - - - -

so both the modules yabaVR recommends us to remove will be replaced by the new core module. In a follow up mail I asked whether the I/O lay out will be changed (AES/EBU, SPDIF, USB, ethernet...) the answer was:

- - - - - - - - - - -
The connectivity will not change as far a I know. We will anyway come with a whole set of information in due time.
- - - - - - - - - - -

This first element is in some ways the best news in this thread. Thierry was always willing to communicate speedily, even if it was just "I cannot tell you any more at present".

Let's hope his presence is maintained - it is what has been missing for (?) 3 years.
