Does Snapstream still even support Firefly?

Drivers/software haven't been updated in over three years, which seems ridiculous to me. Are they not going to release drivers for Vista or Windows 7? What about new programs like VLC and WMP 11? Why do they even sell this product if they're not going to support it with drivers? What a waste of my money.

Re: Does Snapstream still even support Firefly?

I'm using a Firefly currently on XP, Vista and Windows 7 machines with no problems. What are you seeing? What updated drivers are you looking for? I just downloaded the ones from the website and they work fine...

I believe the latest version of firefly was updated to support vista. But I'd suggest you think about using LM Remote Keymap

I just threw away the CDs and the remote - no way to get it to work with Vista and latest service packs. What a waste of money :-(

thats funny how you edit your post, talking about them delete posts and etc.... a search of your username, brings up 7 posts... SnapStream Forums - Search Results

guess what, you have 7 posts.... so doesn't look like they deleted anything you wrote.

And on all 7 posts, you complain about something....if you hate it that much, why are you even bother posting on there forums....

Not sure what your issue is... I have the RF Firefly and the Mini, and both are working without modification on Vista and Windows 7, both 32bit and 64 at my house.
