    The next major firmware release, 1.20, is now ready for beta testing. It brings several UI/usability features from OSSC Pro and restores features left out during v1.xx transition. Due to major changes underneath with potentially resulting compatibility issues (especially with HW versions/variants where I’ve not been involved with), the firmware will be initially offered only as USB Blaster programmable file (link). Once it’s proven that bricking is not a concern, an usual image will be released. Below is a list of user-visible updates:

    * full FAT32/exFAT support
    * new shadow mask and Lumacode presets
    * easy load/store of profiles, custom shadow masks and Lumacode palettes on SD
    * improved profile compatibility across subsequent firmwares (similar to Pro)
    * restoration of DIY Latency tester and Panasonic hack features
    * OSD cursor color selection
    * support for alternative FW stored on internal flash
    * 480p/576p pillarbox option (for widescreen displays without AR control)
    * freed up RAM for future use, e.g. for implementing 2 additional line buffers to enable linear interpolation horizontally
