Can anyone out there tell me if it is possible to upgrade my Matshita (Panasonic) UJ 820 S burner.? There is firmware for UJ 815 and UJ 825. How do I find out if this is suitable for my burner? The problem is that I bought a tub of new AZO dye DVD-R discs and they "fail to initialize" and the shop owner says "no refunds" but a firmware update will fix the problem.

I take it you are using a notebook, as the UJ-820 model burner is a notebook burner with:
Quote:
Tray-Loading DVD Super-Multi Drive (OEM) for notebook PC's (12.7mm height)

Features
- 12.7mm height
- 2X DVD-RAM Writing
- 4X DVD-R Writing
- 2X DVD-RW Writing
- 2.4X +R Writing
- 2.4X +RW Writing
- 16X CD-R Writing
- 8X CD-RW Writing
- 8X DVD-ROM Reading
- 24X CD-ROM Reading
- ATAPI Interface
No they are not suitable for your burner, you need the extact version for your model burner.

I would try going to the Panasonic website or check out forum.rpc1.org and see if they have it.

Yes you are correct.It is a notebook computer.Thanks for the helpful information. I may have to see if I can sell these discs to a friend who may have a more modern burner.
