Xtreme Hitachi-LG 46D FW restore.bat Small Fix
Posted by XanTium | June 19 22:44 EST

Geebee reports in the latest version of his Hitachi-LG tutorial about a small error/typo in the restore.bat (used to restore your modified FW back to the original one) in the Commodore4eva Xtreme FW for Hitachi-LG with FW 46D.
There are calls for "flashsec46_win" in the restore.bat of the FW 46D release, but you'll get errors there's no such file. Instead the file that should be called is "flashsec_win".
So to fix this just open restore.bat in notepad and change all occurences of "flashsec46_win" to "flashsec_win". (don't just rename flashsec46_win.exe to flashsec_win.exe, xtreme.bat (flashing, backup) is also using this file)
The restore.bat file in the FW 47D release works correctly (it calls to "flashsec47_win" and file is named "flashsec47_win.exe", so that's OK).

Geebee also said that the default xtreme.bat file in the latest Commodore4eva Xtreme release now includes pauses after flashsec commands (which causes less flash errors) and improved the orig.bin backup procedure.

If you do the whole rename flash_sec to flash_sec46 your actual flashing of the drive bad will give you errors so just stick with editing the bat file.

Removed from news that renaming file was also an option.

keep up the good work geebee!

I haven't restored yet, but my natural instinct would have been to simply rename the executable to flashsec46_win

I guess for the really lazy people they can just make a copy of the file (flash_sec) and just rename it to flash_sec46 then both bat's would work just fine.
