I watched this track from the Netflix Blu-ray and it ...

Disney uses multiple playlists to support different languages (for the credits etc.), not for obfuscation. 00800.mpls is usually the English version.

Can anybody confirm the correct playlist for Fast Color (2019) - Netflix Blu-ray? MakeMKV says:

Thanks. I await your result.

I reinstalled the NS40 drive and ran your new executable (FW 1.03 Re-Flasher for LG WH14NS40 (NS40) Drives.zip). When I clicked start, I did not get an error message, but the (empty) drive tray opened. (The tray also opened with other flashers when when I got the ...

Well, if it were me, I'd fall back to the 'old fashioned' dosflash dump, use datamover to apply cal data to clean image, dosflash... just the thing Billy, Alex & Marty specialize in. Seeing as you got yourself here, negotiating with them seems like the best bet... or write off the drive. Your call ...

Thanks for the suggestion, but it gives the error: "CheckSum is mismatched. Drive will go to BOOT mode. Please retry again." (Retrying gives the same error.)

I am giving up on the 2013 drive

Try this image on the old drive. Just downloaded the 'official' flash tool from the LG site (dated 04/10/2014) & ran it thru 'FirmwareExtractor2.exe'.

WH14NS40_140326_1.03-A0_NOBJ_DE.zip

Try it with the 'ASUS_ODD_FW_Changer_(Modified).exe' tool. If it works ...

You rented a Lionsgate disc, and might discover that you ripped the wrong playlist.

Has anybody confirmed this for Netflix Blu-ray rental? Thanks!

Java is picking a different playlist than the one listed above for my Redbox copy:
