Im from Poland. I dont have ANY clue what the Embud company was(it was from Poland) because Im join into the AVR club later Very Happy

But I know who sell AVRPROG MKII in Polland.

This is not any intentional commercial because I dont have programmer from this company, My programmer(MKII) I made myself by some Internet instructions.

But if you want to buy new one from Poland HERE IS THE LINKl
Im patriot only and want to support our makers Very Happy

EMBUD stopped making these programmers. So we can not sell them.
I leave the product page so customers can download the drivers.

The replacement i selected was the Kamprog from kamami (also from Poland)
But last time i wanted to buy they were no on stock.
I also looked into alternatives and the mySmartUSB light STK500 mode programmer is a great alternative. It is also supported by bascom.

If you want a clone of the original avrisp mkII from atmel, you can find various. I used one from olimex and it worked after altering the firmware.
There are many clone programmers.

Thanks Mark.
I have a KamPROG but it doesn't work correctly with the Atmega 1284P ( which I use exclusively) , and the mfr has not yet fixed the files.
I see that i can get an olimex locally so will try that. My embud is still working fine, but if I lose it/break it /etc then I'm dead in the water as they say, so i need a spare.
Thanks for your help Mark

you need to update the flash with a firmware that is compatible with libsub. By default they ship with firmware that is compatible with avr studio.
They have a document that describes it, and you can download the firmware from their web.
you should contact them for help since they sell it.
