Thank you for clarifying. I was going by the picture he posted.

You're welcome. And yeah, Amazon pictures are generally good for getting a general idea what something looks like, but they're not generally very good for things like manufacturing date.

I picked up a BU50N that is a UHD drive that works with LibreDrive out of the box. https://www.amazon.com/Genuine-BU50N-Blu-ray-Internal-Optical/dp/B07BF5LY5Z Is the one you are talking about the same as in that link there? Please keep in mind that those drives were built almost 3 years ago. The pr...

Do you know of any UHD drives that don't need the firmware messed with to work with LibreDrive as-is out of the box? I have tried searching about online but have not really had any luck finding such information due to LibreDrive just being so new and not many details being posted just yet. I picked...

Is there something that needs to be done to get the fix? Because I'm still having the same problem.

Is there anything those of us who have "official" drives can do to be of assistance? I have a BU50N.

Yes both the BU40 and BU50 will be supported.

Thank you!

I'm looking to get an "official" UHD drive. I can get an LG BU40N drive here from Amazon UK, and an enclosure to put it in. Or I can buy a BU50N from the US and have it shipped over. Is there any reason (functionality of MakeMKV-wise) to get the BU50N over the BU40N? I haven't been able t...
