What is firmware?

What is a firmware?? and how do i keep it up to date?? how do i install this firmware???

  • my dvd player does not play my burnt dvd, some told me that probably is my firmware

  • Answer:

    There's nothing wrong with your burner firmware. Leave it alone. Your player is either too old to play burned disks or the brand of blank disks you are using are poor quality. You have a choice. Try different brands of blanks or buy a new player that can read DVD-R and DVD+R disks.

Most consumer electronics these days has a little computer inside. This embedded computer runs a specific program to do it's task, eg. play a DVD. This program is normally held in a special type of memory chip called Flash or EEPROM inside the box. For DVD players, to update this memory chip: a) download the updated code from the manufacturers website b) burn the code onto a dvd or cd disk c) play the burnt disk on your player

firmware is something like a software platform for a device to work example mp3 player. firmware can be updated from the manufacturer's website. or some devices can use a third party firmware. installing it you have to follow instructions from that website. every device is different for your case i believe its designed not to allow reading of burnt dvd. and not all dvd players can read burnt dvd especially the older ones.
