Can I edit and flush DVD firmware to increase laser power?
Or do I have to do some hardware modification?
I have a few DVD recorders and readers that partialy work.
Sometimes when I increase the laser current by adjusting
the pot on the head it starts reading but the problem
is that this only increases for 2-3 mA (as I measure)
and the total current is 87 mA (when reading).
I would like to increase for 10-15 mA or maybe more
just to see will it start reading.
Also I am interested what actualy gets weared out here
the laser or the sensor.If it is the laser then I can
increase laser power withot fear that it will burn the cd/dvd.
Because light intensity then just gets restored to the old value.
Thanks.
