Neuros has officially released firmware upgrade 2.0.12, which fixes the PSP incompatibility problem, as well as introducing a whole bunch of new and exciting features!

For those who are unfamiliar with the Neuros MPEG-4 Recorder it is essentially an easy-to-use, free-standing VCR that records onto digital memory cards instead of VHS tapes so that the video recorded is playable directly on the PSP (as well as other mobile devices such as the video ipod), Well, at least it used to work like this, until Sony released firmware 2.7 This rendered the Neuros player redundant as any recordings made with the device wouldn’t play back on the PSP anymore :(

This new firmware release fixes this problem as well as adding the following functionality;

• Fixed the issue that rendered recorded files unplayable on PSP firmware version 2.7
• Fixed the issue of low volume playback of recorded video on PSP. The audio is now 30% louder
• Added recording options for smartphone, cellphone, and PDA. The new options are 176×120-15fps; 320×240-15fps. The application of TCPMP with AAC plug-in is highly recommended to play the videos on smartphones and PDAs. The video format is MP4, and the video quality depends on the computing power of your smartphone and cellphone
• Added the recording options for iPod: 320×240 Fine (1024kbps) & Superfine (1536kbps) for superior video playback
