Hello everyone,

could someone share the flash commands and what firmware to use for the BDR-S08XLT?

Thanks in advance!

There are no flash commands for Pioneer drives. Contact Billycar11.

I hope it's OK that I continue on this tread I have a BP55EB40 drive too (It's a HL-DT-ST BD-RE BP55EB40 to be exact) with 'SVC Code EB52' on the box I've flashed it with the firmware for this drive. All OK. I can rip Blu-rays with no issues. But when I try to load a 4K disc it spins for a minute a...

You must have been extremely lucky and got an old unit from wherever you bought it. They stopped putting Pioneer drives in the 43888 early 2025!! You do not need to do anything as it is already UHD compatible out of the box. Just insert a UHD disc and start ripping!! EDIT: Never mind! I searched ar...

I installed 1.18.2 and still getting the http://www.makemkv.com/errors/ipc/ error. The drive has a 15 watt wall plug that I have used for the last month without getting that low power error. It only presented today after the 1.18.3 firmware update. I have restarted computer several times and no luc...

Silly question... But how do I go back t the previous version?

Uninstall it and install an older version.

1.18.3 on Mac

Ah, you mean you updated your MakeMKV software version? If so, just go back to the older verion.

There is nothing wrong with your drive and you should not flash it again.

What is a safe upper limit for the pressing date of a blu-ray disc to insert into an old optical drive without causing a revocation if the latest version of MakeMKV is used?

2023.

I see below drive information yet makemkv only shows it as a blu ray disc. Timestamp: 2017-11-15 13:36:48 Protection: AACS2.0/C v61 Data capacity: 74.34 Gb Disc type: BD-ROM UHD Number of layers: 3 Am I doing something wrong or makemkv only shows blu ray for a UHD+Bluray disc? It's showing as a UHD...

I'm getting this error message "Command produced error Code 0x82052603"
I'm using SDFlasher (V1.3.6) and I tried ASUS_ODD_FW_Changer

Your drive has encrypted firmware. Flash to WH16NS60 1.02-MK first, then to WH16NS60 1.00.

Hey guys, I get the fact that theses drives can't rip uhd, but can they rip standard Blu-ray? Thanks !

Yes, of course but since they are 15+ years old, not sure for how much longer.

Hey thanks for the response, it's a MacBook Pro. Coopervid did the UHD flash for me over a month ago. Everything has been fine until I did the firmware update this morning, so I didn't know if that may have disrupted something. Can I unflash and reflash? What firmware update did you do this morning?

So I just got my UHD drive from Aliexpress, it comes on a generic box but inside there's a BU40N: Drive Information OS device name: \Device\CdRom1 Current profile: BD-ROM Manufacturer: hp HLDS Product: BDRE BU40N Revision: BW41 Serial number: 711CS001663 Firmware date: 2116-12-22 09:20 Bus encrypti...

Hello I also have this PIONEER-BDR-XD07TS drive manufactured in December 2020, but due to my stupidity, I installed firmware 1.06. :? I would like to install the software in UHD. info: Drive Information OS device name: J: Manufacturer: PIONEER Product: BD-RW BDR-XD07 Revision: 1.06 Serial number: F...

I too am sort of confused with my drive, and do not wish to mess this up. I purchased a Verbatim 43888 and did all the research I could on here before starting and thought I was ready to flash until MakeMKV tells me I got a Pioneer UD04 drive, not the LG BU40N I was expecting and folks are saying c...

Why is everyone paying for this firmware flasher? PM me and I can give it to you for free.

Because the author of said tool asked that it not be shared.
