Thread: Matrix Infinity Firmware upgrade on V4 PS2...

  1. #1 Matrix Infinity Firmware upgrade on V4 PS2... 
    Valeclava Guest
    Hi everyone,

    I'm having a lot of trouble flashing my Matrix Infinity chip to the latest version (1.35) on my V4. I've tried CD-Rs and CD-RWs (both Memorex and Fuji) and all that happens when I put them in is a disc read error. I've burnt the ISO no problem through Nero and can see it on the CD, it's just not going through the final step. The chip works flawlessly as is but I have the DVD playback issue and would like to fix that.

    Any suggestions / helpful tips someone can throw my way? Do I have to get slower media perhaps or some kind of dummy file? I'm at a loss as to why it's not working.

    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for the quick reply, loy.

    Yes, it does play regular CD-Rs. I sucessfully backed up a version of Ty: Tasmanian Tiger or whatever it's called (for my sister of course) :-P and played it no problem on a CD-R.

    I have a pretty fast burner (NEC ND-3500AG) and it's tough to slow the burn down. I may just have to actively look out for and try to find slow media to try.

    I guess I'll have to get the latest firmware if there's been another update. I appreciate the heads up.

    Keep those suggestions coming and thanks again.

    Use the V1.35 as the V1.36 is done in a different way and might create confusion in you on how to use it.
    Also the V1.36 is just the V1.35 with PSTWO support.

    Try reducing the speed of the burning of the CD, ot try increasing the size of the dummy file inside the ISO.
    Some version of NERO have problem burning ISO smaller than a certain dimension.
    This might be exactly your case, as you already succeeded in burning and playing a full CD-R :-)

    Right on Chip, I was thinking I may have to do something along the lines of making the dummy file bigger. Any idea on how I can do that? Is it just a matter of replacing the file itself? I have a program that will create a dummy file, is it hard to incorporate it into the ISO?
