the sd card did not work for me either...the power cycling makes no difference.....I emailed chord maybe those stuck with upgrade failure from 1.041 to 2.00 they will provide some help....ridic to hit button to upgrade firmware and check your internet connection...message should read we are handling this upgrade as efficiently as brexit
I've just been trying out the new firmware and I'm happy to discover that the issue of dropouts with Roon seem to have been banished. I can open and close the Roon app at will and no static or dropouts from network interference, nothing. Thanks Chord for addressing this....
All day couldn't get from .41 to 2.0. Was using my phone as a hotspot. Tonight tried on the home network. Colours flashed for only about 3 minutes and went dark. I thought it failed... but no. 2.0. Phew. Happy.
Answer seems to be... YES! Kind of surprised actually, but very very welcome addition. A couple caveats though. It doesnt quite seem perfect, though maybe it was because I testing with some crappy files. A couple times I heard some extremely tiny gaps, but the rest of the time seems gapless. The other caveat is that in hificast on android, gapless needs to be enabled in the renderer settings. First time was not even remotely close to gapless until i remembered the setting has always been there, it just never did anything in the past. Dont know if thats the case with other players too, but definitely something to keep in mind.
Edit: Starting to wonder if it does have to do with file type... flac files were playing back gaplessly very well. Trying with some aac now, and theres definitely a gap. Its short, but noticeable on these...
Edit 2: @Gr8h8m sorry may have spoken too soon. flac seems to be playing gaplessly, but others, not so much. Trying in bubbleupnp too to see if it would make a difference, does not seem to. Actually getting really weird results. Some are playing gapless, others not so much. Cant quite figure out rhyme or reason at the moment... maybe my files were ripped poorly. Ill wait until others can chime in. Either way, I am definitely getting some gapless and others not (that I think should be).
Well, following the cryptic comments here I've managed to update to 2.0 - but it was a strange process.
Didn't want to risk damaging 400GB SD library, formatted a spare 64GB card to exFAT and copied across dlna-sdfree.dat and mpd.db, just in case.
Power cycled Poly and booted with the new card *inserted*.
Left it to LED colour cycle for 10 mins.
Ejected the card without powering down.
LED immediately switched to solid Yellow.
Powered down - solid Yellow stayed on for quite some time, more than usual - eventually turned off.
Powered up - GoFigure finds Poly and indicates v2.0
What a f*ing palaver!!!
NB - this worked for me but goes against Chord's explicit instructions for updating so ymmv.
I got the long solid yellow light when powering down, and thought I was spot on with your process.
But on powering up again, the Poly status light doesn't come on, and GoFigure can't find it.
Seems like I may have bricked the Poly.
Which sucks, but I JUST got it back from Greorge Meyer TODAY....ugh. After just spending $335 getting a loose port on the Mojo fixed, having to send it out again for a circuit board repair is not encouraging....

I saw the update this morning. Poly can’t get on the work network so all I could do was update GoFigure. Phone hotspot was no love for me also, but once home I am in 2.0 land... WOOHOO Thanks Chord!

Hang on..you got the solid light...powered down...unplugged...waited for light to go out...plugged in again (in case battery is dead)...waited for 2 charging LEDs to come on...booted up and....nothing?
- got the solid yellow light
- powered down
- unplugged
- waited for the light to go out
- plugged it back in again
- got the mojo light, but not the poly light.
Poly has been essentially charging all day, so doubt that it's a dead battery. Seems more like the firmware udpate may have been corrupted due to being incomplete. The solid yellow light (and the long delay of it staying on after powering down), was, at least in my case, indicative of the 2.0 firmware update not completing, so ended up with a corrupt firmware, and now doesn't start up.
