I did some digging and under the surface this looks like a BDE-PR1ME-L. A "Cost-effective business Blu-ray recorder, suitable for loading into automated equipment. CD Printer/Recorder, CD library." Sounds like a durable workhorse. The specs rate BD Read Single and Dual both at 12x. Too bad it can't ...

The SDF Tool said it had the wrong platform. I'll keep it as a pure BD player/writer. Oh well.

Yeah, the SDF Tool said it had the wrong platform. I'll keep it as a pure BD player/writer. BTW, I just extracted the BD of Inter****r. At 39gb it took 29 minutes, this thing flies!

Sorry to crosspost this: I have an interesting drive out of a Epson disc publisher, a Pioneer BDE-PR1EP. I've converted a LG to UHD in the past with no issues but I'm unsure about the firmware for Pioneers. Can this model be converted? The info below is on a BD, a 4K just makes seeking noise in the ...

I picked up an interesting BD/DVD-RW drive out of a Epson disc publisher, a Pioneer BDE-PR1EP. The specs say: "These drives perform above the industry standard, offering extremely accurate publishing with an exceptionally low error rate." Its also said to have 'specific' firmware. The case is dated ...

My results from last night:

I found that my WH14NS40 had been updated to 1.05 in 2120? According to the data 1.05 was supposed to be encrypted, but the SDF Flasher showed differently. I used HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_WH16NS60-1.02-NM00100-211810291936.bin and it updated in 10 seconds. No problems and the ...

I’ve used MakeMKV for years with an ancient Lite-On drive on my HTPC to extract BR and have had no issues with it. No 4K abilities of course.

I also have a pristine Xeon mid-tower I acquired a few years ago as a backup PC. For the first time I looked closely at the drive and realized it’s a LG ...

Solved it, the file was corrupt somehow. I ripped it to a mkv a 2nd time and resolution is correct. Probably should have tried this it before.

I just opened the mkv in Magix Vegas and it shows the same settings. I have the feeling that these settings are displaying incorrectly for some reason. I wonder if there's a way to change them at the file level without resaving it.

Noone seems to have discussed ripping the 1st episode of these ...

I just extracted Guardians of the Galaxy 1 (4K) from disc. It went smoothly with no errors, the output was a 56gb mkv.

The video through HDMI to my Sony X900E is washed out which is a well known HDR problem. But what I found odd were the video attributes when I opened it. Instead of 3840 x 2160 ...

Well...I just replaced my old Lite-On BD drive with a new LG WH14NS40. It blazed through reading the disc in 1/4 of the time without slowing and made a seamless mkv. Really surprised me.

So in my case at least the error shown at the top of the post was solved by using a new drive. Go figure.

I'm not getting any hash errors despite it not being listed in the current keys_hashed file. Its Dances with Wolves theatrical version from the Steelbox edition...btw.

The error points to a bad disc because it keeps failing at the same spot. But...my BD drive is embarrasingly old. I just ordered a ...

When ripping a BD I ran into the attached error. Could be due to either the disk or my drive. So I decided to copy the entire disc to my hardrive and rip from there. I was able to copy all the BD contents over with no issues.

--My question is how do I covert the HD version to a mkv? Makemkv ...
