No, I'm not a bot. What a bot thing to say right?

Nice pun!

What confused you in Marty's instructions about flashing the BP50NB40 drive? What changes could be made to make it more clear?

Clean your UHD disc or try a different disc. LG drives are not as good as Pioneer readers. No insult intended but are you a bot? Your question about firmware on the BP50NB40 has been asked and answered probably 50 times before and a bot may just use those postings to make a realistic question. "...

When you launch MakeMKV itself, it will show your optical drive model, its firmware version and date. That and the SDFtool Flasher [url]https://forum.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=22896[/url ] first post will tell you how to flash your drive. Note that your BP50NB40 if SVC: NB52 (a tag ...

You will always get the full, correct beta key if you use the "Select all" link in the Code box before copying.

I have a couple Verbatim 43890 drives and they came with external power bricks. Have you tried using this external power source? I use that and it runs fine with single USB 2.0 connection.

Check what audio adjustments are on your TV. Anything to reduce the bass should make the dialog more prominent.

The vocals are difficult to discern on some films. I think it is just bad sound engineering on some newer films. My Handbrake process is like yours, reducing the 5.1 channel to AAC stereo. Maybe someone with a theater sound system will comment if that helps the vocals. My profile for blu-ray discs d...

Some users have requested that failed files not be deleted hoping that some use may be made of them. See viewtopic.php?f=1&t=31272&p=155118&hili ... on#p155118. So this may be a new feature not a bug.

Hey Guys ! is there a tutorial on how to crossflash LG WP50NB40 to LG BU40N ? tks! Also look at https://forum.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=22896&sid=3a6dc4448bc250b7959ce1a195e628a0 and follow the instructions for the BP50NB40 SVC:NB52 if that is the SVC code on the bottom of your...

Many messages on this forum assure new users that their MakeMKV copy is not degraded in any way. It is an exact copy of the video and audio data on their disc. Taking from Marty McNuts, if you get errors then: 1. Your disc is dirty, 2. Your disc is faulty, or 3. Your optical drive is faulty. I like ...

did you follow the guide below? what does your drive info show now? is it still a BP50 or is it a BP60 now? Thank you for the help! Yes, I followed the guide, but I am not super technical, so might have messed it up. Drive Info shows: Drive Information OS device name: E: Manufacturer: HL-DT-ST Prod...

Both BIN files produce Error coves too long to copy...ideas? You don't copy the bin files. Download Marty's SDFtool Flasher and either "All you need software pack" to your windows computer. Unzip the pack if needed and then start the SDFtool Flasher program and select the firmware to writ...
