Re: BDR 212V UHD Guide

Re: Comparing Pioneer UHD Models
Most likely old stock. BD production in Japan has ceased and new stock comes from other countries like Taiwan. Verbatims from Japan MEI T02 50GB were also very good. The new Verbatims 50 GB from Taiwan are just bad. I bought enough SONY RE 100 and R128 during new year sales, after that price signif...

https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=185539&page=19 Thanks, useful guide, I had copy-pasted it from redfox. I don't watch movies and rarely used it, but it works everything as stated. Also it works with BD-RE with localized defects even with single layer ones. Honestly, on the last existing...

Re: Comparing Pioneer UHD Models
The plastic lens info for 212DBK comes from seller asmcom. Pioneer Europe told him I think all Pioneers for retail users for the last 10-15 years have plastic lenses. Otherwise it would be item #1 on the pioneer website to show the advantages of the S models. But it shows 2 copper screws on the mos...

Re: Recommended drives for non-UHD use
@Coopervid (and anyone else looking for a Pioneer right now) - 212V is currently available on Amazon and Newegg. Of course, it won't be patched like it would have been if I were to get it from Billycar or Asmcom, but when I eventually start using UHD discs I can reach out you folks and get it flash...

Re: Asus BW-16D1X-U
For a successful flash power needs to be removed completely. Both power supply plus USB. Otherwise the electronics is kept alive and doesn't reset the drive.

Re: 2 - Brand New WH16NS40 Drives from Newegg????
Buy Vinpower 212V (Pioneer) from Newegg or Amazon.com while they are still available. They can be flashed to UHD very easily. Just post their Makemkv info when you have them.

Re: BDR 212V UHD Guide
Here you see that they started with 1.02 and then switched to 1.5x.

The 211 is the OEM version of S11 w/o software.

Re: Looking for 4K Blu-ray Drive (UK)
I only see a few in the US. Amazon.com and Newegg. They might be sold out already. Check for 212v Vinpower. If you have it post here.
