23 Hi Folks....
I am trying to load the latest version of MW OSD on to my minimisd micro....with zero success. I have it plugged into my FTDI and I am not sure it's seeing the osd board. There is no activity on the osd (lights of any kind), but when I plug it I, two additional lights come on on the FTDI. All that said, the MS OSD software does not seem to recognize it. It just keeps flashing, "writing osd", but there is no indication it is actually doing any thing.....thoughts/comments?

139 so you flashed it okay? but can't read / configure it on the GUI?
can you try 1.4 quickly?
I am having the same issue on my micro minimOSD from banggood... only 1.4 works any newer version won't connect to the GUI, just says waiting for OSD...

That's what mine says...I checked the pins on the FDIC board and I'm not getting any voltage...which would explain why none of the LEDS lit on the OSD.....which means I never got it flashed in the first place...OR it was flashed when I got it and it's just that version 1.5 is not working....I'll get 1.4 and try that.....Thanks Oscar.
I tried 1.4.1....now it says "waiting FC".........

Swapped TX/RX...same thing. With no voltage at the 5v output of the FDIC board, I suspect there may be a problem with it..... "Damn the torpedoes!!! Full speed ahead!!!"

23 For anyone watching this thread.....I figured it out. I bought a Qunqi 3.3V 5.5V FT232RL FTDI Usb to TTL Serial Adapter and failed to read the "fine print", where it clearly says, "not supported in Windows 8". Crap.
