You should upgrade. I feel the ILO is a very good Unit that the upgrades make even better.
My ILO RHD04 build date is Oct.04. firmware 1185. I have upgraded straight through to firmware 1195. Some annoying problems with functions did occur, during the changes. The most annoying problem with the ILO was the green tint on some videos during playback and to many specif functionn problems. The green tint issue and most function problems were fixed with firmware 1195 and its a drive update also. All the firmware upgrades I have used came from Guitarman?s site and I use the hacked version. I have not had one problem. I have used many different DVD+R media and not one failure. They all have to be finalized. And will play in other machines. Lately I?ve been using DVD+RW. They do not require to be finalized and will play in other machines. I only say this in hopes that it will answer some of your concerns.
You say that recordings made on the ILO are back to not playing on the ILO. Does this mean that they did play on the ILO, stopped,than played. and again stopped. Will they play on other players? If not, there has to be a problem with the ILO, the media, or with how or what you are doing. You should ask [Guitarman] and go with his recommendations. I don't mean this, that others do not have a valid opinion.
I have not used MP3 but I can?t see why they should screw up your recorder. What do you mean by screwed up?
You are right way too many people are not aware that a problem can be solved by a simple firmware upgrade. I blame ILO for this but mostly Wal Mart. The ILO is a good unit, employees do not inform the purchaser prior or after the sale that a simple fix is available, Why? because to many don?t know the product or dont care. That?s not only true for Wal Mart.
