[QUOTE=redsox14;2494283]I am having problems reading memorex dvds. I thought I would check to see if there was a new firmware upgrade and I went to the LG site. I currently have version 1.06 but when I checked the LG site the only version they have is 1.05(EW). I know I downloaded 1.06 from the site last year. Just wondering what happened to 1.06 or is 1.05(EW) the latest?If they removed 1.06 for some reason is it safe to go back to 1.05(ew)?[/QUOTE]
As far as I can remember, most LG sites never had v1.06 listed at all. Only one or two out of their multitude of regional/country sites had it listed (sorry I don’t remember exactly which one) … all the rest only listed v1.05, so I doubt it was removed. Most likely it was never added, which sounds just like LG
One thing they’re very good at is to sit on firmwares for a while before releasing them (that is if they ever get released!) 
I don’t think your problem is firmware related …generally - with a few exceptions - Memorex media tends to be quite poor quality / unreliable media.
I would first try better quality media …
