BMPCC4K - Not seeing update option for 9.1 firmware

PostMon Oct 07, 2024 1:52 pm

Not sure if anyone else has seen this but I have 2 BMPCC4K cameras, both on firmware 8.6. When I install the 9.1 Camera utility it shows as the current version but there is no Update Software option when I click the camera icon in the software utility. It only brings me to the setup screen with the date/network/certificate configuration.

I've tried multiple cables, rebooting, both cameras, multiple USB ports, removed HDMI so it's USB only, and nothing is presenting the ability to do the 9.1 firmware update. All previous updates to this point have been fine.

What am I missing?

This is normal when there is nothing new to add to that specific hardware. Happens with their switcher lineup as well.

8.6 is the newest for the P4K.

To read the description : Pyxis only update.

It’s in the description where you can download it, and in this forum from Lam’s announcement post.

You not miss anything
We, pockets oweners, aren’t affected from these update.
