It makes the 1608 to write DVD-R @16x and DL @4x. But I never heard of the author "Lassie" (is it the dog?) and don´t have an 1608 to test.

Here´s the news in german:

I will try it when I get home tomorrow (Friday April 29). But the problem is, I can't understand the language in this site to know what the author trying to say.

Hello!

Found nothing to translate.

The Firmware is an exe-file, it´s the flasher with the FW included. There is no more info

Here is the new hacked f/w for AOpen converting 1608 to 1616. I have not yest tried to burn any thing with the new hacked f/w, but as far as burning some disk over its rated speed nothing has been changed from 1608 and still only Maxell and Fuji made in Japan DVD+R (8X) is being burned at 12X and that all.

If you mean the new German made hack, then the link is as follows, as has been indicated by Scour on top of the thread otherwise I am not aware of any other hack f/w for AOpen 1608.
