Thank you for helping. I don't remember updating the firmware, but that would make sense. Since the drive was working perfectly, I wasn't aware that updating the firmware might be a problem. How do you suggest that I proceed? To enable UHD ripping, you need to flash it back to an older, libredrive ...

Modern Handbrake can do hardware encoding on AMD VCN , Apple VideoToolbox , Intel Quick Sync Video , Nvidia NVENC , and Media Foundation on Qualcomm ARM processors if you have a Window machine with one of those. If you don't like Handbrake, then obviously you don't have to use it. But if you want t...

I bought a Verbatim 43888 drive last year and it has worked perfectly until recently, but now suddenly it won't read 4K UHD discs anymore. This is the drive information from one of the recent tries: Drive Information OS device name: G: Current profile: BD-ROM Manufacturer: HL-DT-ST Product: BD-RE B...

Do you use Handbrake to re-encode them? Nope. I hate Handrake. I use Rigaya's nvencc64 CLI so I can use my RTX 4070 to encode (usually takes around 30-45 minutes) as HEVC/H265 software encoding takes hours. So, it uses your video card's processor to encode the video? I have a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 306...

Some are 4K only discs. The ones that include non-4k Blurays, I will definitely image the bluray version of the film. I would prefer to have a 1080 version of a backup than no backup at all. 4k discs are just too big and I have too many movies, TV shows, and documentaries to justify taking up 100GB...

Hi there, As we know who have bought any computer equipment lately, SSD prices went through the roof, which led to more people buying mechanical hard drives. So, now they've gone up 50% in the last few months. I want to minimize the costs for backing up my media library. I've pulled every hard driv...

Well, it didn't brick the drive, but it didn't fix it either. I still can't use it to read DVDs on my Fedora Linux machine. :( Still works fine on my MacBook Pro, either in MacOS or in Parallels Desktop running Windows 11. Works fine on my Fedora machine if I put in a BluRay disc. Just not with a D...

I am interested in purchasing this DVD player (Aluminum External USB 3.0 and USB C UHD 4K Blu-Ray player) I am not interested in burning anything only watching movies, is it possible to flash this player and install a downgraded firmware so I could watch ultra high definition DVD’s? It is a model B...

According to the specs for my BDR-S12UHT, BD-ROM DL (Ultra HD Blu-Ray) = 8x BD-ROM TL (Ultra HD Blu-Ray) = 4x BD-ROM SL = 12x BD-ROM DL = 8x Maybe the Pio drives are good because they are a bit slower? Damn quiet though, when ripping! I'm not really too concerned with the extra 20-30 mins taken to ...

You need to use the recovery mode in sdf tool Then just follow the prompts Yep, I tried that... Everything errors out. I even tried 2 old PCs, one of which set to Win98 with Exit to DOS for the DOS Flasher, and it failed every time (I could actually get the drive seen in DOS which surprised me usin...

sdftool doesn't provide any drive info and throws the no logic error. It won't even show any drive details (firmware version / drive platform etc). Can't use any sdftool commands on it. I'll give it a try later anyway and see if anything happens. low chance this works but have you tried adding this...

I have come across 1 so far... This Xrtfore says HL-DT-ST and has the CB05 firmware version and shows no libredrive info in MakeMKV, which, to me, implies this enclosure is not allowing commands (including libredrive) to pass through. Even using sdftool in the MakeMKV CLI shows nothing, just an err...

Your Amazon link doesn't work. The model I have is: https://www.amazon.com.au/XRTFORE-Exter ... 468&sr=8-2 Yep, that looks like the same model on another continent. May yours be better than mine. Mine are shipped from USA so they'd be from the same place. I'll have to test them all. Hopefully t...
