I wish I had a firmware editor for my old Aopen DVD+R burner. It still works
fine with old DVD+R media (2 and 4 speed), but I had to replace it for the
LG because I can't get DVD+R media anymore which is accepted. (illegal media
message) and in spite of having latest Aopen firmware.
I still have the Aopen lying around, it isn't broken but because of new
DVD+R media compatibility problem...
It would be nice if someone also know a solution to this... Or do I
definately have to throw it away?
