Well, i figured that instead of making several seeprate threads about the firmware, we could all place discussions and thoughts about the firmware in here until the official xbox-scene thread comes along.

So, I guess i will start the discussion. I am really excited that this firmware is coming out because finally our stealth backups will truly matter. It was such a pain in the ass extracting the stealth files. Im glad I did, because I would have to reburn my originals.

Another thing, are we going to see a firmware toolbox version of this firmware, or will c4eva use his flashing kit?

P.S. Keep up all the good work c4eva!

I hang around in #fw and no one knows too much about the firmware. C4eva hasnt spoken in some time so i dont have any idea of what the ETA is. Its almost like they arent testing it or working on it.

C4eva was on last night around 8P CST and said that 1.0 was still safe for TS and that 1.1 was coming soon. It stands to reason that he ditched 1.0 Hitachi after 1.1 was determined to be needed. I expect that the Hitachi 1.1 will be out soon after 1.1 TS.

it would be nice if we could use toolbox... and even nicer if it supports read/write of the 79...

...just as I though. Hitachi's dont get any love.

I have never heard any developing news on the Hitachi's since the Samsung firmware came out.

Okay, I heard that the Hitachi FW IS still in the works. I just came from #fw and they said that there will be a new iextreme 1.1 firmware which does extra checks on the pfi and video sector. C4eva has ultimately decided that making a 1.0 version of the iextreme firmware wouldn't make any sense because it will just need to be updated to 1.1 anyway. So he has decided to work on the Hitachi firmware from the 1.1 features.
I wonder if they will just call it iextreme 1.0 instead of 1.1 since there never was a 1.0 (or maybe there was and we didnt hear about it)

bebrewer basically said the same thing, but just felt like saying it again : P

I wish we saw something though. Considering that more of the dvd drives are hitachi. They only make hitachi and benq(soon to be lite on) now. There are no more samsungs in production so I was hoping to see hitachi first but whatever. Just takes time

[03:11] <c4eva> hitachi will be done soon, just finishing off 1.1 for sammy tonight, then hitachi full time
[03:13] <c4eva> hitachi was always 99% code from v1 which I did
[03:23] <c4eva> c/r timing in iXtreme is fine
[03:24] <c4eva> disc capacity was fixed from xtreme v3 upwards, all good
[03:26] <c4eva> some work has already been done on hitachi, but more work needed
[03:28] <c4eva> current checks are only PFI,DMI and capacity
[03:31] <c4eva> 1.1 will have just some extra checks on valid video data/PFI matching before booting

good news
