Onkyo Releases Fix for TX-NR818 24p Issue

As the months dragged on I was a bit concerned that the issue noted in our review of the TX-NR818 where it converted 23.976 content to 24.000 was not going to get fixed. Thankfully that is not the case because today Onkyo released a firmware update that resolves it (and a couple other issues) – Huzzah!

I’ve been running a beta version for a few weeks and it’s been working great, so if you have a 2012 Onkyo AVR grab a USB stick and get updating.

Also, it’s worth thanking Onkyo (and the people there who advocated for us) for doing the right thing here; not every company does.
