- All A6.5.9-X firmware versions are compatible with each other
- A6.5.9-X firmware versions are NOT compatible with versions earlier than A6.5.9
- A6.5.9 is NOT compatible with 3G-only hardware
- 708POE
- 737WARP
- 767DSS

- Operational Mode of the ST1 is dependent on the position of the jumpers on the bottom of the hardware unit
- Changing operational mode requires a reboot of the device
Bug Fixes
- Devices will now properly default to 2G Mode without needing to manually apply 2gmode.sh
Known Issues

Bug Fixes
- Cable and satellite sources no longer freeze video after outputting a bad video frame on resolution change
- Satellite boxes no longer output black video when changing resolution on Native Mode
- BT2020 Color Space is less dull
- HDMI loopout on 715POE is enabled by default
- Fixed startup race condition that caused mDNS announcements to report devices as "HTTP on none", causing discovery failures
- Corrected update scripts to account for POSIX sh compliance, allowing updates directly from firmware prior to A6.4.12
- `getmodel.sh` will not record the discovered model in the filesystem cache until 60 seconds of uptime (to allow for all SCU level checks to complete)
- Fixed startup issue that would cause SwitchPlease to fail to load
Known Issues
- Some cable/satellite sources can cause an audio drop on 718AVP and 749AVP Transmitters
- Fix by disabling mic/line inputs
- Fix live by power-cycling the TX or applying `dd_reset.sh` via telnet when the problem occurs
