Hi can anybody help me unlock UHD on this device? Is it possible? Drive Information OS device name: *: Manufacturer: ASUS Product: SBW-06D2X-U Revision: 1.10 Serial number: ************ Firmware date: 2017-04-18 Bus encryption flags: 1B LibreDrive Information Status: Enabled Drive platform: RS8511 ...

These guys post links on where to download them after you pay them!, I do it for free! To be honest I don't trust you. What I have seen in your first link seemed to be a cracked version of Billy's autoflasher. And who knows what kind of bad stuff might have been added to it. Virus, Trojan.... I pro...

Hello,
I am new here. Thank you for your work !
Please, do you know if I can do something good with a Pionneer BDC-TD03VC ?

Thanks for the PM - but unfortunately I'm not allowed yet to answer.

I found a Pioneer drive with a price which would be ok for me and I would test that first. I would write here again if I have any mor questions.

Thanks @Coopervid!

OK. Sounds good to me!

Same thing again now.

Well. Linux guys seem to be masochistic. You need to flash to an UHD firmware. Described here. Install a VM and do so.

Okay, again: "If your external Buffalo / Archgon / LG BU40N has encrypted firmware, flash BU40N 1.03-MK first, then you can either leave it as is or flash BU40N 1.00 or Buffalo BU / BN firmware if you want to." I don't see the BU40N 1.03-MK in the all you need firmware pack, only the stoc...

I'm re-reading that thread, and in the "The all you need firmware pack," I only see the stock firmware I already had for LG slim BU40N, not the patched BU40N 1.03 MK that I thought I need in order to bypass the lock for downgrade protection/encrypted firmware/anti-rollback checks. Read ag...

I've my first EB52 for flashing here. I thought I do some experimental with it. Just flashed to LG BU40N 1.03MK like the EB40.....and 4K ripping is fine. Why is the the second step to 1.00 necessary with the EB52? It's not for Makemkv / AnyDVD / XReveal. Only if you want to use DVDFab / Passkey. Ye...

Have this drive with FW 1.04. Bought it maybe 2-3 months ago. Over time I have noticed it has become incredibly slow to rip UHDs (it was a champ prior to this!). For example on my Seinfeld UHDs it can take hours to rip one disc. These are triple layer discs - at least the bath I am on now, so maybe...

I can't edit my response as it's not showing up yet, but it's only connection is USB-C.

You can flash it. Read the UHD guide. If on Linux / Mac you must use enc in your command line.

Thanks, I'll try that. However since it's happing with at least two discs, I think it's the drives and not the discs. Looking for BD drives, I was shocked as there are only some drives in stock, and those are mostly internal slim laptop drives or very high-priced. Regarding the movie: I like the mo...

hi guys, can someone please PM me what I need to flash my BDR-209DBK to rip UHD? Drive Information OS device name: /dev/sr0 Manufacturer: PIONEER Product: BD-RW BDR-209D Revision: 1.51 Serial number: MJDL002010WL Firmware date: 2018-05-08 Bus encryption flags: 13 Highest AACS version: 63 LibreDrive...

Post your Makemkv info and try to rip an UHD. Woohooo! Doing The Matrix 4k for a test run. It’s not done yet but no issue so far. 4x speed. No libre drive install needed. Do the below specs match the BDR-S11JX claim? Drive Information os device name: D: Current profile: BD-ROM Manufacturer: PIONEER...
