Thema: Software Update Online - openATV Images

Hi guys,
just a quick Q. concerning the "Online Software Updates" - openATV images.
I have an image Build dated 15.07.2020 with Drivers dated 06.2020. see Pics.

Every time I go to check the Software Updates Online, I get the Warning message as in Pic 3
WHY is this? The image Build is only 4 weeks old, WHY am I getting this warning?
Should I go ahead and update or is this really the case and the Installed image will become unstable?
If that is the case why offer this solution I DO NOT understand the point of it.

What is the point of having an Online Update if this will make the image unstable?
Any explanation would be greatly Apprec., I am trying to understand this Logic?
Thanks
AJP

Sometimes a lot happens in a short time, but if you don't want to re-flash, make a backup and then try the updates.

Thanks for the reply, but it does NOT answer the Q. I know that four weeks is a long time and things move forward.
My Q concerns the Online Update. If this means DO NOT try it but make a BackUp first in case it goes wrong,
then the whole object of the exercise is defeated and makes absolutely NO sense.
Should I consider the Online Software Updates as useless and should NOT be made?

It takes me 2 hrs to Set up one of my Images as I like it and this Four times on Four 4K Boxes Multi boot Boxes, that means 16 Images.!!!
So you understand why I am asking, I don't want to keep doing this every four/five weeks. But I DO want to be up to date with the Images.
I have never been able to make a complete BackUp that worked afterwards as it should, these BackUps are always corrupted for whatever reason.
Thanks

Nightly Build ! Updates not only for the viper we build for many other Models too

you can take a look to the git log for your model History for meta-brands/meta-dinobot - oe-alliance/oe-alliance-core * GitHub

when you have free time make a update or wait

Even after disconnecting and reconnicting HDMI? I can observe sometimes problems with HDMI-CEC after upgrading the image without this reset of HDMI..
