Pioneer sent us an announcement of their new firmware v1.50 for the A09/109 DVD recorders, along with a long (and rather messy:) changelog.
If we look at the high lights of this new version, one must be the DVD-R DL support, with a 6x recording speed for Mitsubishi Chemicals media. Also there is support for 8x speed +RW media. More 16x speed media is now supported too. The changelog also promises improvements to all media types, for read and write operations.
