The firmware and Slimserver software are pretty independent of each
other, but there have been times in the past where a FW upgrade
depended on a certain version of the Server software being present.

e.g I think FW54 or later requires SS6.5x.

Slim recommends that users upgrade Server software and FW together as
they are tested as a unit. It would involve too much work to test
server upgrades for compatibility with several older FW version.
Similarly, Slim don't go back and update 6.2 or 6.3 to work with the
current FW as well as the version bundled with the release.

So if you upgrade to 6.5 the FW will automatically bee updated.
If you go back to 6.2 or 6.3 you'll be prompted to downgrade.

You can edit the squeezebox2.version file in C:\Program
Files\SlimServer\server\Firmware to avoid a downgrade, but you won't
get any support if your system breaks.
