Pros and cons of updating to BLV3 for LH20A1L
| LiteOn / PLDS / Sony Writer Discuss, Pros and cons of updating to BLV3 for LH20A1L at CD and DVD Writers forum; Quick Question! I'm using C0deKing's BL06 firmware on my LITE-ON DVDRW LH-20A1L. What's the pros and cons of updating to BLV3 for LH20A1L? I take it this is Lite-On's official firmware? I've haven't had much issues with C0deKing's excellent firmware. Only issue is a new batch of 48x Sony CD's |

I've haven't had much issues with C0deKing's excellent firmware. Only issue is a new batch of 48x Sony CD's has a max burn speed of 16x. No problem playing mp3 CDs in my Alpine Head Unit. Thanks! |

| These are official LO test firmwares, which IIRC, address the issues of CD burning.

Actually, I have problems burning new Verbatim DVD+R DL 8.5GB 8x full printable (MKM-003-00) with both firmwares at all speeds. 1 of 10 media work and are error free after burning. I have no problems with other media or the same sort, but of an older batch, so this is quite strange and I wonder if other people have the same problem. |

I even had no problems with these media - until I bought new ones (from two different vendors). I had some old ones with the same media code - and these still worked without any problems. Resetting "learnt media" didn't change anything. |

| This is one of the few new media I could burn. I stopped scanning jitter since it took too long at that stage. (BLV3 didn't produce better results.) |

| This is a scan of one of the "older" media I had no problems with: |

| There was a similar problem, but with MKM 001: http://club.cdfreaks.com/f44/trouble...er-dvd-247270/ |

| Similar problem at the layer break: MKM 003, but with DH20A3: http://club.cdfreaks.com/2106938-post1830.html I don't believe it's the firmware or hardware, but the media. So at the moment, I see no reason not to use BLV3 at all. |

| Didn't realize my post was moved to a new topic until I checked-in today. Thanks C0deKing for giving me a heads up! Should I hold off installing the are official LO test firmwares as the firmware on the DVD burning side would go back to stock...correct? Thanks! |
Posted: 12-08-2008 - #12
| I don't know if I understood you correct, but BLV3 is the latest firmware and I would prefer it (although there is no EOHT patch for BLV3). It seems that there is nobody who has somehow more problems with this test firmware. |

| I used a HEX editor and searched for the differences between stock BL06 and C0deKings BL06 eoth, then I patched my BLV3 firmware in the same way. Here's the result with a Verbatim DVD+R 4,7GB 16x printable MCC 004 @ 16x |
Posted: 16-08-2008 - #15
| These are Variox DVD+R DL 8x 8,5GB CarbonPro RICOHJPN D01 (fake?) @ 4x Since there is no layer break issue and it has a better quality index, these media are somewhat better than Verbatim (above). (patched BLV3, see above) |

| I found out, that all these good and bad media from Verbatim were from Singapore, while these VARIOX media come from india. This is strange. |
