I have this drive in my laptop. Using Ltnrpc I think the firmware is 3ME8.
Using the following link, which firmware should I be using?
http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?download_id=1461
The comment "only for drives with 3Vxx firmware" on the page above is confusing me.

Just saw there is a firmware called 3MU1 , I loaded it in the omnipatcher and it also doesnt have a time stamp.
Now that one seems to make sense as it is chronologically newer 3MU1 than 3ME8
I'm kinda hesistant, should I try this one?

As a last check I know ultimately the decision rests with me but in your opinion are you confident that the 3MU1 firmware is the right one for my drive? I'm going to try this I think because I'm hoping this drive will be more media friendly.

I updated to 3MU1 but I lost the check mark beside the DVD+R and DVD+RW box in DVDInfo. This can't be good
