Mark, here is the serial port log data post reboot:

Abnormal player termination

The player runs fine until another KnobRight. Then you get this, looks like the serial port isn't fully restored right away and the first few lines are stuck in the buffer?

Incidentally, stonkdance.raw is present in the /empeg/lib/visuals directory but I am still at v210.

Sorry about the time zone questions, just makes the [Hijack] offset problematic!
