If the serial decoders on this one work above 50mS/div then that's something. I'm sure most people would rather have that today than a promise of "maybe next year sometime", like the Tek.

No. Because with the Tektronix it is specified the decoders don't work -yet- so you can base your choice on that. It is all about unspecified surprises (= bugs) that make buying the Rigol an adventure. If you need working decoders today, you don't buy the Tektronix (unless decoders have been added in the meantime) but something else that you know works. MicSig did the same when they released the TO1000 series; the decoders where added later and MicSig was totally open about that. In the end nobody benefits from a feature that is half baked at the release.

Yeah that is totally valid.

Still you'd think at this point people would realize that serial decoding is low on the priority list for a number of scope manufacturers, for a reason (as Kleinstein points out).

Signing this.
What benefits you got when it´s not "freezing" while playing with the vertical adjustment..

That you do not loose control on monitored system that could be an high power inverter in alpha stage development. 

Anyhow I decided to overcome this whole matter in necessity of quiet instrument :  scope purchased during black Friday sale and arrived today, first impression :

- screen quality is simply awesome, high contrast sharp image, responsive and good feeling touch operations, very good analog intensity emulation
- nice screen layout
- analog resolution is actually very high, for the first time i can spot DAC stepping of mine SDG2042X
- fan is loud as well as DS1054Z
- bug fest with serial decoder engaged

Does anyone know if it's available a FW update ?

Main Rigol sites do not have nothing.

I would like to report a quite annoying bug, some settings are not stored / restored correctly across a shutdown, even manually recalling a setup saving.

For instance, at least in my case, channel one coupling is erroneously set to AC after reboot.

FYI, you probably just need to add an appropriately sized pull-up resistor for your bus capacitance.

See the attached guide from TI, it has a formula.

Yes, I can confirm this behaviour. I was thought that it is on purpose but I don't remember to read about this in user manual.
Also Flex knob does not always action even if it has focus on that field.
