When will MSI put out firmware that recognizes media properly?

i just got a replacement drive from MSI.
It is a CR52-A2 and I just updated the firmware to 180D.
The drive will not recognize  my CD-R's at their proper speed.
The 52x media it insists is 32x.
Same with the 48x media.
I put an LG 52x drive in the same machine and it recognized the media at the correct speeds, so this a FIRMWARE PROBLEM with the CDRW.
I had the same problem with the old MSI drive, but I hoped that a year later
they would be able to figure this out.
I will never by an MSI CDRW again.

Which hardware?
My computer? or the MSI CDRW?
The 8348 that I used to have only recognized one blank as being 48x times
and that was the blank that came with the drive.
All others, because of serious deficiencies in the firmware, it recognized as being much slower.
Same thing with my MSI 52x burner.
During the several months I waited for my replacement MSI CDRW,
I bought an LG 52x burner.
It recognizes the correct speed of media, including numerous brands of 48x 52x and all speed media.
It will burn blank media at the correct speed including up to 52x.
So since my computer with Nero software can correctly burn 52x CD's with my LG burner, It must be the MSI drive that is the problem.
BTW, look at the latest firmware revision
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/download/dld/spt_dld_detail.php?UID=410&kind=5
Release new F/W version 180D
1. Improve high-speed CD-R/RW medium compatibility
WHAT DO YOU SUPPOSE THIS MEANS?????
It means that they know that the previous firmware didn't recognize media properly.
And guess what???
IT STILL DOESN"T!!!!
BTW,
looking back at my original post from 05.09.2002 01:36
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?threadid=3402&sid=
32x is a definite improvement.
my MS-8348B only wrote at 16x.
The same disks in the current drive write at 32x in the MSI drive.
IN the LG drive at their rated speed.

  • I use Canon 5DMk3 for videos in A/F mode. When will Canon come out with a quality STM lens?Tad

    When will Canon come out with a quality lens with STM phase focusing for Canon 5DMk3? I shoot mostly videos. in A/F/
    The 1.2.1 firmware update didn't do it.
    Tad

    Yes, sorry. I did realize I didn't specify exactly what I shoot.
    I do a lot of car-related things. Car photoshoots, races, etc. I'd like to delve into portraits and such more upcoming too.
    The races are easy to do, so long as you have a fast camera and a good lens. Even going from my old Nikon D60 to the faster Canon 60D proved very helpful. I am also pretty good at the focus pan where you move with said object to blur the background.
    My real issue with the crop sensor cameras thus far have been the noise levels. I do a lot of shooting in low-light. But I figure a couple proper lenses a good tripod, and some time experimenting could help that.
    I do like the idea of the T5i as it's so cheap. At only $600 on the body, that would give me plenty of wiggle room to fund proper lenses. And I suppose that if I went that route, I could always just end up picking up a 7DII as my go-to when released, since the T5i will obviously have it's limitations.
    But at the same time, going right for the 70D would also be a solid choice as to it's benefits, larger sizing, etc.
    Although I'd love a 6D, it's probably better that I stay away from FF for now until I get steady pay from shoots. I know me, and I'd take myself broke buying proper lenses.
    The 60D seems like it's still a good choice, but kinda going backwards from the others. And the 7D, same thing. Although still a great camera, it seems to (at least for me) have the negatives outweigh the positives at it's price point.
    So it seems like it's been narrowed down to the T5i and the 70D.
    FYI, I don't have a ton up yet as it's been recently created, but feel free to check out my page for a couple references of what I shoot. It's below.
    Also, on Instagram, I'm "averagewhiteboy" as well. I have a Flickr Pro account too, but I don't think I've updated it since going Canon.

    Disabled
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.                        
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings        
    For how to restore:                                                             
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:

    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
    If you previously synced to the computer then you may be able to recover use of the iPod without erasing the iPod by following the instructions here:

  • When will Apple put the Adobe Flash version on the iPads?

    When will Apple put the MS Adobe Flash version on the iPads?  The iMac desktop has Quick Time, but there's nothing for the iPads that I know of.

    Guess you haven't seen the analysts reports and sales numbers for Android tablets lately... Or heard that the tablet optimized version of IE in Windows 8 will be plug in free... Or heard that Adobe is now pushing a server product that will convert Flash video to HTML 5 for use on mobile devices.
    A 1980 Chevy Chevette will do the same thing as a 2011 Mustang. I guess Ford is going to go out of business when everyone starts driving Chevettes.

  • When will Siri come out for ipod

    When will siri come out for the ipod

    That again is a wrong answer. When iOS 6 is released, siri will be available for iPad 2 and iPad 3 Mr. Please don't respond witht he wrong answers!
    This is the DIRECTLY from Apple Inc.
    With iOS 6, Siri understands more languages, works in more countries, and is available on the new iPad.2 So you can get more things done in more places around the world. Want to know the latest scores and stats for your favorite teams and players? Thanks to iOS 6, Siri knows the answers. Or maybe it’s movie night. Siri can show you the latest reviews and showtimes. Find the best restaurants in town and make reservations. Even open your apps for you — no tapping required. Say "Launch Flight Tracker" or "Open Angry Birds" and Siri does just that. You can even use Siri to post Facebook updates and tweet for you, too.  "

  • When will siri come out of beta stage...

    When will Siri come out of beta stage and become full working order. And when it does what will be different about it and will it be able to destinguwish words better?

    I would say that given the nature of the Siri platform read: dynamically changing based on user inputs and requests - that the project will most likely be in a perpetual beta state.
    That's not to say Apple won't drop the "beta" tag from it's marketing and FAQ's, but I think it's safe to say that this product, it's design, its goals and it's feature set will be continually changing for the better.

    When will apple sort out the scrolling issues on iOS versions of iTunes and the App Store?
    It seems impossible to get the horizontal scrolling to work smoothly and in a way that doesn't result in some albums/apps in the row being skipped.

    Working fine for me. Have tried resetting or restoring?

    When will Apple make an ipad that lets you make and receive phone calls?

    The iphone is too small for me to use for the internet (maybe it's my age)-- especially for Facebook--where I am a Page Administrator, but the mini ipad would be just right for both phone and internet. I'll bet they make a new ipad able to make and receive phone calls right after I buy the current one.
