I bought an older Blu-ray drive, the “LG BH16NS55” However, in the “Drive Info” window, it’s listed as “Asus BW-16D1HT 3.02” and “LibreDrive Enabled.” So it looks like the previous owner modified the firmware. Now I have several options and am not sure what to do: 1. Leave it as is (UHD ripping wor...

we already knew what drive was in it you recover it the same way in or out of the case you will have to use cli and add nocheck to the command to ignore the tray being opened Why don't you write a cli cookbook for him? https://forum.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=23023&p=95457&h...

OK. Thank you: Billycar1 I will upload some photos of the new HUB and Blu-ray drives. If you are willing, at an appropriate time, you can teach me how to flash the firmware. Of course, I understand that this will take up your valuable time. I am willing to pay for it because I have many similar dri...

Hi! I'm not so familiar with the japanese naming of bluray-drives, I have't got it in the mail yet, so can't post makemkv information about it yet, but it was produced https://www.jauce.com/read_yafile/https://auctions.c.yimg.jp/images.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/image/dr000/auc0204/user/0d68eab2dcc60c7b9...

there not really much fw development going on for CD drives
and from what i can see they are very old from 1999

so theirs really not much flashing to do to those
for modern UHD drives see the guide below

Hi, reaching out to see if I can get that firmware.

use the emergency eject hole if a disc is in it
you use a paperclip for that or something similar

your drive is a 212 for some reason asus rebranded it as a 209 When I opened the enclosure, it clearly had it labelled as BDR-209MBK, MFD. September 2024. Are you saying that it uses the exact same hardware/firmware as a BDR-212, but is labelled as 209? Do you know this because of the platform modu...

I have a Pioneer BDR-X13 external USB enlcousre, although the actual drive inside it is a BDR-213M according to the label, it has Firmware 1.03 on it which I knew was the crippled & encrypted FM. I did search for info on this and found a few posts recently about it but got a bit confused on som...

it likely does support the dvd m disc but if you want to be 100% sure we can flash your drive to a s12 and it will also do 4K UHD discs then if you want it to

Where did you hear to flash to bu40n ?

See guide below and use sdf tool recovery option and follow the prompts exactly read them carefully

Flash back to wh16ns60
