Re: All Pioneer drives will be LibreDrive supported

I have the opportunity to purchase it. The firmware is 100% newer than 12-2022. I don't know what to do, hence my question.

Re: All Pioneer drives will be LibreDrive supported

Will there be a chance in the near future to unlock BDXL drives, e.g. Pioneer BDR X13JBK, to read UHD formats? Is there anything more known yet?

Re: SDFtool Flasher

Hi Marty,
What's the difference between the BU40N_1.03_MK firmware and the BU40N_1.00 firmware?
I'm asking from a user perspective.
Does one support BDXL discs better than the other?
I'm mainly concerned about writing discs.
I know that version 1.00 is compatible with other programs, not just MakeMKV.

Re: SDFtool Flasher

I'd like to ask the experts on the subject which is better to buy: BW-16D1HT BOX or Verbatim 43888?
Which lasts longer?, Does the sleep error also affect the Verbatim 43888?

Re: SDFtool Flasher

I don't want to start a new topic. I have a request and a question at the same time. Is it possible to flash ASUS BW-16D1HT (3.11) so that it works with UHD and MakeMKV? I guess the problem here will be firmware 3.11? Could someone smart explain this to me? ------------------------------------ Drive...

Re: ASUS BW-16D1X-U - Flashable?

Hello, I am considering buying a new Asus BW-16D1X-U. I'd like some tips. How to find out before buying that the drive can be flashed? Will information about the year of production help?

Re: Pioneer BDR-S09XLT LibreDrive ready but not ripping UHD-discs

OK. I'll ask again:
Pioneer BDR-213ULBK, new, firmware 1.02 (unlocked), price $550. Is it worth it?

Re: Pioneer BDR-S09XLT LibreDrive ready but not ripping UHD-discs

Good morning, I wanted to say hello. Please help. I can buy a used Pioneer BDR-S09XLT drive for USD 170. Two purchase offers. One was manufactured in 2018 and the other in 2015. Which one should I choose to work with LibreDrive?
Thank you for your commitment.
