I have update the ILO Firmware Download Page to include the new HD04 1194 firmware update. It is available both hacked and unhacked. There are also CD images for the hacked version in both Nero (.nrg) and Standard (.iso) formats.
Update Info:
Version: 1194
Filename: WMJA1194.DS3
Type: System Only (if you haven't update previously to 1193RevA, do so!!!)
Fixes: Green Tint Problem, Playback of Audio CD's
I have also done a lot of changes to the site. The only firmware files on the main recorder pages are those that are needed to bring the recorders up to the latest updates. Each page will have the last available system & drive update and the latest system only update. This is to help relieve some of the confusion as to what updates to run. I have moved the older updates to a seperate page linked off of the main recorder pages.
I also made the Home page a little more simple, moving a lot of the links to other new pages. Mr. Wizard's Smart Hacking Tool is still linked on the Home page.
I have added a link to the new ILO Firmware Update Instructions on Home page and each of the recorder pages. READ IT!!! It will save you a lot of problems and make your upgrade go more smooth.
I hope you like the new changes to the site. If there are any questions or ideas, you know where to find me!!!
Enjoy the new HD04 update. It works!!

Seems to be working. I watch the collateral and amazingly without any noticeable green in the clouds in the beginning of the movie. The Audio CD is fixed, as well. I'll try other titles when I have time.
Thanks, Gtrman, for the download.

bbaxter,
Yes, it should. I have heard of other 5007 users using the Smart Hacking Tool to hack the firmware. Try it. The program will tell you if it has a problem finding the right code.

Pazzi1,
Same as any. You need to see what firmware is installed. Go to the setup screen and look at the serial number.
xxxx-xxxx-0097-xxxx The third set of numbers is the firmware version.
If it is earlier that 1097, you will want to use both 1097 and 1098RevB. 1097 gives you the latest drive update while 1098RevB gives you the latest system update.

does anyone know why this model needs 2 firmware updates (drive and system), while the liteon 5007 only needs 1 file?
thanks!

bbaxter,
The LiteOn/ILO recorders can have 3 different firmware files, system, drive or system & drive.
The reason for needing 2 files for the ILO at this point, is that the last firmware update for the ILO (1194)was system only. The update prior to that was a system & drive update. If you were to just install the newest file (1194), you would not be getting the drive update that came with 1193. This is also assuming that the recorder had not been upgraded to 1193 beforehand.
If you have a recorder that already had 1193 installed, there would be no need to do both. You would just install 1194.
Be assured that the 5007 will come across this situation at some time.
The rule of thumb for these recorders is to make sure you install or have installed the last available system & drive update before installing a system only or drive only update. This will assure you have ALL the latest updates.
Read the firmware update page I have set up on my site. It explains the different firmware upgrade types.

Thanks to Gtrman for the ILO firmware hacks. I'm wondering what is the difference between Gtrman's hack vs Mr. Wizards? If the official ILO firmware updates are accomplished, and then Mr. Wizard's hack is run, are we not accomplishing the same end result as Gtrman's hack?
However, if Gtrman's hack is installed, does this mean you cannot update via the official ILO firmware downloads in the future? It appears that Mr. Wizards hack allows future official ILO firmware updates?
Can anyone clear this up? Appreciate it!

hieye,
Mr. Wizard's program is not firmware, it is for hacking the firmware.
My firmware is already hacked. I actually use Mr. Wizard's hacking tool to hack the firmware posted on my site.
My site has both the hacked and unhacked versions of the firmware. You have the choice of downloading either the already hacked version or you can download the unhacked version and use Mr. Wizard's hacking tool to hack it yourself. Either way, you end up with the same file and result.
Whether you use hacked or unhacked firmware, you are always able to upgrade or downgrade to other versions of firmware.
I hope this helps

thanks gtrman for your clarification. Do you know the bitrate for the hacked 3hr recording? Is the quality equal to, or worse than 2hr?
Thanks,

Hey! Does anyone know if there is a way to defeat the copy protection on the HD04?
Specifically is there a way to put a copy protected DVD (that I own) in the DVD tray and copy it to the HDD?
I've downloaded the latest (hacked) software version... but , no go...
Thanks!

KLEAR101,
You can not copy a dvd from the drive to the HDD. The hack will only allow you to record a DVD real time using another player.

I have just bought a DVDR04, but have been reading this page, Guitarman's download page, and ILO DVDR04/HD04 Firmware Download Page. Maybe I am overlooking it somewhere, but I think the first thing to know before a Firmware upgrade, is to know what version I now have. I went through all the menus under Setup, but did not see the Firmware version; I did see the serial number though, and I have a 813S unit. The manufacture date is Jan 05, so I hope it has recent firmware in it. Maybe Guitarman should add "How to find your Firmware version" to his instructions.
I made a 2 hour DVD from a 8mm camcorder last night and everything went OK.

Firmware version is in the same sn where you find what burner is in the unit.  The g2bc means this has 451s drive the 0097 before g2bc means it has 1097 firmware in it. So your unit has b20x where x is a letter or number the 4 numbers before that is the firmware version. With manf date of jan 05 you probably have 1097 firmware because it was released by ilo on jan 1st. March 14 1098 was released. If your unit does show 0097 you have the new drive firmware. The 1098 that will show as 0098 is system only update so is for both.

Thanks, mine is 4E01-1840-0097-B207 (101-010D), so it does have the 1097 firmware in it. I had been looking for several days before I bought mine, but never saw this explanation about the serial number and what it means. What does the numbers in the parenthesis mean? Maybe it doesn't mean anything that I should be concerned about, but just interested.
REV. I see now that Gtrman had already answered the Firmware revision question on April 7th, but I overlooked it. Sorry!

I am sure the ones in parenthesis has some meaning. Far be it from me as to what it is unless it is some form of revision build code. I dont think they are to important to us end users though.

Hello Members,
I am a newbie to Forums and DVD Recorders. I would like to thank everyone who contributes to this Forum for providing interesting and useful information about iLO and LiteOn DVD Recorders.
I would like to especially thank Guitarman for his contributions and congratulate him on his fantastic Web Site. I have successfully updated the Firmware on my iLO DVDR04 to 1098B (Hacked). I downloaded Mr. Wizard's hacking tool from Guitarman's Web Site and ran it on the latest Firmware for my LiteOn LVW-5045 Recorder. The upgrade works perfectly on the LiteOn LVW-5045. Thank you, Mr. Wizard.
I also have the Daytek DVR P30 DVD Recorder. I would like to upgrade the Firmware on this DVD Recorder. Daytek does not post a firmware upgrade on their Canadian Web Site. Does anyone know where I can find the Firmware file for this Recorder? My SN is: 4901-1140-0900-G2B9(100-010B). This unit has the familiar LiteOn / iLO SetUp Screen and Menus. I suspect it is a re-branded LiteOn manufactured Recorder.
I would appreciate any suggestions for upgrading the Firmware on the Daytek DVR P30 to disable M/V and add LP 3 hour mode. The already unit has the hidden feature to set Region Free which I have set to Region Free.
Thanking everyone in advance.

I have a LiteOn 5005 and it has that picture shake/jitter problem. It also had the green tint trouble but I just updated the firmware and that seemed to help the problem. But the picture is still randomly twitching. I was hoping the new firmware would fix it but it's still not how it should be. I've looked around for info about this and I read that if you downgrade to the 1143 firmware this might fix it. I looked around for somewhere to d/l 1143 but I couldn't find it. Does anyone know if this would fix the problem, if there is anywhere to d/l the file, and also if I downgraded would this make the green tint problem come back? I would appreciate any help! Thanks.

To get to them, go to the main page and click on "Other Helpful Information and Links" to get to the 5045 download page.

The 1195 firmware update continues to carry the green tint fix as well as the cd isue correct ?
Also if your last update was the 1191 doing an install of the 1195 would be all right correct ?

ydkjman,
Yes, the new update carries the same fixes as 1194Beta. It also includes a drive update so there is no need to use a previous version w/ drive update first. It can be installed alone.
