Fix Streaming Kit Firmware Failures

These steps are for manually fixing firmware failures with Hudl Sideline. Only use them when Hudl Support has instructed you to do so.

  1. Download this firmware file. This file is designed to work once sent to the Streaming Kit. You will not be able to open it on your computer.

  2. Plug the streaming kit into an outlet using the provided charger located underneath the plastic board in your kit. Leave it plugged in throughout this entire time.

  3. Turn the streaming kit off.

  4. On the back of the streaming kit, press and hold the reset button with a paper clip or similar item.

  5. While holding the reset button, turn the streaming kit on.

  6. Continue to hold the reset button until you see the "Teradek Recovery Mode" on the screen.

  7. On your computer, click the Wi-Fi icon, then connect to the TeraRecovery network. This network is coming from the streaming kit.

  8. Open a web browser and type in the IP address displayed on the streaming kit.

  9. Select Choose File. Upload the file that was downloaded from Step 1. It will be titled Teradek_VidiU_firmware_v2.4.4r27063 (1).bin.
