Not to worry. Make sure you have it on the latest firmware for best performance and most features. -Steve  |  IP: Logged Jake Spell Master Film Handler Posts: 294 From: Johns Island SC Registered: May 2009 posted 12-25-2011 07:38 PM                     Yup, All the XD-10's that I have used are pretty reliable as long as they are kept up to date.  |  IP: Logged Jim Cassedy Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1661 From: San Francisco, CA Registered: Dec 2006 posted 12-30-2011 07:06 AM                     quote: Tissa DeSilva Now when I power up the display says "Ready" and also bottom display's " Fmt Unknown " >Has it always done this, since you received it, or did it used to power up and say somthing else?

Is it outuptting audio normally? You said you bought it on e-bay. I had an XD-10 that was acting flakey and putting unusual messages on the front display and occasionally locking-up after being shipped. I opened it up and re-sat all the internal connections & never had any further problems with it. Try that. I've also had power supply failures on two XD-10s in the past year. But you'd know if you had a bad power supply, since it will be entirely 'dead'.  |  IP: Logged
