Yeah, the uptick in quality is really impressive!  The framerates are
also much better.

I would hope it resets all of the settings to factory defaults, so this
makes sense.  I would go so far as to say that any firmware upgrade like
this *requires* a factory reset on your part, just in case.  This will
also take care of your blank settings comment below.

I've confirmed this locally as well.  The recording integration is
completely broken at this point:  the program that the scripts used to
call is no longer there, so obviously things don't work :)

I've sent off an email to Epiphan, hopefully we can get this fixed soon!
