iXtreme V1.4 released for all drives!

Today the iXtreme V1.4 firmware was released for all the Dvd drives except v78/79 hitachi which will be released shortly.The releaser claims that the recent banning wave that took place could have been due to the Challenge/Response timer.When backed up games are played online,games that was ripped with kreon drives combined with iXtreme would produce an value which should be less that 360.In the earlier case this was to produce exactly 360,so this serves as an way of detecting that this is an backed up game.Now the new firmware would get the values and wrap it under 360,hence would make it undetectable for the Microsoft.Though steps are being taken to make it as guanine as possible,still there is an risk of banning!
