The PX-716A will receive firmware updates in the near future, that will increase the Double Layer recording on both DVD+R DL and DVD-R DL media. However, the 6x speed raises questions, as media manufacturers seem to be jumping from 4x to 8x speed. Also the release promises improved media support, especially for 16x single layers.

From middle of January 2005, firmware 1.04 will be released to support:
  • 2x writing on DVD-R DL media
  • 6x writing on DVD+R DL media
  • 8x writing on DVD+RW media
  • Support additional 16x media

  • Beginning of March 2005, firmware 1.05 will be released to support:
  • 6x writing on DVD-R DL media
