I just upgraded to 1.4. I think there was an article on pioneer's web site about the firmware upgrade. If I remember correctly, the newer high speed disc can damage the drive, that's why the firmware update came out.

thanks for that,i forgot to say that i still want the choice to burn at x1 (i think its the safest way,less errors on playback) even on x2 and x4 media.does the 1.40 support this?


cheers

I don't know for sure if it supports the choice of 1x or 2x burn, have not tried to burn anything yet,working on a project currently and will burn in a day or two. I would hope that it would give you the choice. I would say if you are never going to burn anything faster than 1x and your not having problems, don't upgrade yet. Just my 2 cents

Yes it still burns fine I've been using it for a while now, just go for it.
