SmartSDR Upgrade to 1.7.30.78 - Video

Very straight forward process. Downloaded the EXE file from www.flexradio.com, closed any instance of SmartSDR, CAT and DAX as well as any program that makes use of the DAX audio, loggers and DDUtil.

The main idea behind the video is to let people know that the radio will shut down a couple of times on its own and that it takes a little bit of time.... be patient. At times it looks like the yellow bar isn't even moving.
Steve points out on a different thread that the update can take up to 5 minutes. I guess the radio and PC have something to do with the total time.
In this case is a 6700, on a gigabit network connected to a Core i7 8GB laptop.
