Read speed now increased from 40x to 48x for CDR media

you have to press eject button for 3 sec to read at 48x everytime you insert a new cd.

After seeing some translation using Biblefish, the 1.05 upgrade implements a new feature in which you press the eject button for 3 sec., then the read speed will go to 48x (I assume 48x to read CD-R discs).

I think that's the only change.

Ah crap, should of press the submit button a minute earlier :wink:
