Just like with computers and smartphones, other technical devices should receive software updates from time to time. Televisions, Blu-ray players or cameras can all achieve higher performance or be more secure with updated device software, according to the German magazine Audio Foto Video Bild.
The most important argument for an update of the firmware is security. Depending on the device, users might expect entirely new functions. Picture and sound quality can improve on televisions while internet-capable devices even offer video-telephoning via Skype after an update. Digital cameras can profit from longer battery life or work quicker, while HD-TVs can improve their reception.
There are various ways to receive the new software. Televisions with an internet connection can directly load the update with the push of a button. Others can be updated via satellite television connection. Cameras can often be updated by being connected to a computer.
