Herries 2500 firmware is much better, with bitsetting and more media support

bitsetting changes the booktype from DVD+R/RW to DVD-ROM, so if a reader looks for the booktype, it'll recognize it as a DVD-Rom instead of a DVD+R/RW

Why is it good to recognize a DVD+R/RW as a DVD-Rom?

Compatibility. Not all set players will recognize the DVD+R/RW format.
