Birdy Xtreme Firmware for Hitachi-LG v46D v1.2 tweak
>> Birdy released a v1.2 firmware for the Hitachi-LG GDR-3120L v46D based on Commodore4Eva's Hitachi-LG v1.1 FW on the XBH forums:
[QUOTE]
This is a tweak of the orginial Commodore4Eva Xtreme firmware v1.1
It include 3 tweak:

* 1: Mode B tweak
If you start your Xbox with tray opened, the hitachis start in ModeB.
Start your xbox, open the tray.
Now power off your xbox by disconnecting power supply.
Start again your xbox, your drive is in ModeB .
Easy ;-)

* 2: Tray open/close in ModeB (without adapter, hitachi on power supply from xbox).
Correct the open/close tray faulty operation when your drive is in modeb with Windows.
Now in modeB you can use your drive without problem.

* 3: Dashboard TimeOut tweak with DVD DL ;-)
During disk recognition, this tweak fake the open/close function. If your disc are not recognized yet and you received the "Open tray" from dashboard.
Press the eject button -> xbox say opening but tray stay closed.
Press again the eject button -> xbox say "closing" -- "reading disc"
No more timeout!!
