[MacDV] Fwd: Pioneer DVD recorder

[Peter Tattersall]

Kunga, thanks for the suggestion. I had looked through xlr8yourmac.com 
in early May and found nothing, but now (following a May 20 update) the 
information is directly available in the site's FAQ section, at
http://tinyurl.com/cvbwe
The FAQ references both a 1.40 and a 1.50 updater. The link to the 1.50 
updater is in the "Update: Joachim..."  line.

I successfully flashed the drive using the updater for 1.50 firmware on 
my Quicksilver G$ running 10.3.9. While the updater shows the firmware 
version at 1.50, it appears that the System Profiler relies on 
information loaded at start-up -- I had to reboot to get the updated 
version to show in the System Profiler.

According to the Pioneer website the update enhances performance on 
certain brands of media.
