    I just purchased a ILO DVDR05 mIu manufactured Nov. 2005. It says on the setup page that it is version: Vi: c00065 MIU servo: Dx043D D 037S How do I know if I need the updates on the ilo website? I am getting that humming on playback when I have taped a TV show using the ilo tv tuner. I noticed in the postings that this could be helped by an update but I believe that was on an 04 version because the post was from 2/26/05.

    I also wanted to know about the A-B erase function. I thought that I had read that you could A-B erase an R+ disc but that you would lose that space to record on in the future. Is this right or can it only be done on a RW+ ? I tried to do it on an R+ but it didn't light up as an option.

    And finally, I tried recording on the 8 hour SEP. Everyone moves like a robot and are totally pixelized. It was horrible. The 6 hour (SLP) is bad enough. The closeup views are fine but anyone in the background are fuzzy and pixelized. Is this normal?

    This is my first time posting on a site like this. I appreciate any help you can offer. I found all of your postings very helpful before I bought my recorder. I had a gift card to Walmart and limited funds, so I had to go with the ILO. So far its been pretty good.

    Thanks!

    Just wanted to tell you that Ilo sucks had one didnt like it but I have the answer for you you can only edit on rw disk and r disk you can delete and then that space can not be reused oh and I also found out you dont have too record all the programs you want on that disk at the time the disk is in the recorder and you can take it out and record on it later but if you want it too work in other players or recorders you have too finalize it first.
