Interesting, but the file you're referring to is just the latest firmware for the NLS player, which is currently version 2.1.3. It isn't any special bookshelf software. Since you said you were already at the latest level of firmware, I wonder what was going on with your player. I wonder if somehow the previous upgrade to 2.1.3 didn't fully take but did update the announce of the FW level. Maybe upgrading again got it to take. Oh well, the bottom line is that you got it working, and we'll never know what the original problem was.

Inside that folder, is another file that's called, upgrade. I never opened the folder to see what kind of files are in it, but I got it from their firmware web page. My best regards.
