Re: LibreDrive for Pioneer drives

All non-UHD drives flashed for UHD might say that they are BEE enabled but they "lie". The chip to do so is missing. This 211 should be used internally. If you want to rule out the root cause you should get a Benfei USB -> SATA adapter like this. If it works with that your enclosures don't...

Re: Issues With Verbatim 43888

I will let someone more experienced than me check the log (it looks like you've got a download error as well ?), but I will say that as far as I know the KEYDB.cfg file (which is supposed to be placed inside the MakeMKV config folder, as you probably already know) does have a key for the 4K version...

Re: BDR-211UBK won't rip 4K discs that other drives rip fine

Pretty sure this comes down to the enclosure SATA USB bridge. Use the drive internally or buy this adapter: https://www.amazon.com/BENFEI-Drive-Adapter-Cable-Compatible/dp/B07JGT17B8/ref=sr_1_1?crid=FHA3RSS8FES&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.0vW-5Udb8cYg3nfTLjI4bmAQkRwQb9_eBP5T7H-NB-6Zt5QkC0xkTh9q8d9SUl5cNtJ8...

Re: Start updating the firmware from scratch. Requesting assistance. Thank you.

The drives shown can't be flashed for UHD. Forget it. OK, Coopervid. Thank you very much. I'm just a bit interested in these technologies. Maybe I can get ready for them and make more people aware of our community. I would like to know which models can be technologically enhanced to achieve 4K ultr...

we already knew what drive was in it
you recover it the same way in or out of the case
you will have to use cli and add nocheck to the command to ignore the tray being opened
Why don't you write a cli cookbook for him?

Re: Buffalo Media Drive

Your second, lower box is wrong. You NEED to choose a full size drive firmware like LG WH16NS60 1.02 firmware. Putting BU40 firmware in the second box won't help. Besides that the flasher seems to think that a disc is in your drive. So fix your first issue and try again. And you need to check RECOVE...
