FUJIFILM 8X DVD-R problems with 5045

Hi guys,
I used TDK DVD-R 8X without issues. Yesterday I bought 50 pack of dvd-r 8X fujifilm from BJ's!

I burnt one in 5045 without any issues, took it to my PC and played it using PowerDVD.

It gave me an error after an hour. I search for a tool that verifies the files on a DVD, and found one that told me that two files on the DVD are having reading problems.

I burnt another DVD-R and ran the tool again and it told me the media has reading problems for some of the files,

So I ran the tool on some of the TDK dvd-r I burnt before, and it gave me no errors or warnings.

I was glad since giving me no errors while recording then having an error while reading it is an scary issue.

My question is, how do I find media that works fine with lvw-5045?
The recommended list is not available in the market.
Should I limit myself to DVD with speed 4X?
TDK 8X worked for me!!

Is there a way to upgrade the firmware of the burner/drive inside this unit to write correctly on 8X & 16X?

Thanks
