Well I got my SLV-595hf up and running thanks to zaphod. Thanks again.

Now I have a problem. The dates only go from 1992-2007.....


Rolling Eyes Anyway to open the dates up a little? Access firmware?

Nope, sorry, it's hard coded in 8k of rom inside the CPU. You just have to go back and find a compatible year within the built-in callendar. Set the date (25th, etc) and change the year until the correct day of the week shows.

Thanks zaphod. Not the answer I was hoping for, but it is what I expected. I set the date to 2002. but leap year....... Crying or Very sad ah well can't have every thing. lol

Thanks again,

Well, the last leap year with dates aligned with 2008 was 1952(!)

I suppose most calendars won't go back quite that far.

So after February 29, you'll have to change your year to 2003.
