the 211 seems ok for uhd and classic BD

Most likely your keydb.cfg is not up-to-date or your haven't set the correct path in XReveal. You should use KeyDB_helper by SamuriHL to synchronize / update it. There's a link in the first post.

so dvds are ok , tried BRs and :

the prestige : ok

abyss (from new version ) : not ok

so why ?

i dont rip , just play discs live in my tiny cine-room with htpc and use Xreveal for BR protections

I use dosflash 2.0 , probably not the bh16ns40 one . Its ok even with an Asus drive ?
Where can i get so ?
I certainly missed something

Hi , so i try to foolow the recovery guide but ... SDF TOOL dosent work on a 32 bits system .... so how can I do ?
DOSFLASH is ok but ays me : "no known flash chip on this port " (it sees the drive well )

@Billycar11 is there any detailed guide includind switching IDE mode here ? I cant find it sorry :oops:

so is it ...

Not sure if that's what you talking about but i already tried yo make a recovery with 1.01 firmware and modified Asus tool picked up here on the forum and i cant , have error message each time. If this is not the way can you please lead me to the dedicated recovery guide ?
