Re: What are the reasonable prices?
Thanks everyone! Remember to disable smilies whenever your comment (or the quote) contains an **Fancy Icons**. On my end (maybe that's not on yours), such emojis are stretched unless you disable smilies. :P

Re: What are the reasonable prices?
Are there any manufacturers left? I really wonder how movie collectors and directors like Christopher Nolan will collect and share their passion in a few decades... That's crazy... That would be an entirely different discussion thread, so feel free to start one if you wish to reply to my shower thou...

Re: BU40N - Which firmware is best?
Uh... What's the difference between the firmwares in the "old" subfolder and those in "HL-DR-ST"?
I flashed/wrote the one in "BU40N-FR". 🤷♂️

Re: What are the reasonable prices?
Try on Aliexpress ... OK. Thanks. I saw between CA$90 and CA$180 or something... Seems I got a great price, especially since both came with the cabling and one of the BU40N was already compatible. "Firmware type: Original (unpatched); Firmware version: 0.FR07j" Firmware Date said "21...

What are the reasonable prices?
Hi! I couldn't find a topic specifically about the price of LibreDrive/UHD compatible ODD. What are the prices these days for such online-bought ODD? I bought two repackaged slim ODD from a brand named Xrtfore on Amazon Canada and I'm almost done testing the first one which was a BU40N. I bought two...

Prospect (2018) and outgassing
Friendly reminder / teaching opportunity: I just got my first experience with a disc and a case that were covered with chemical residues. I backed-up both the regular Blu-ray and the UHD Blu-ray after many difficulties but it's only 10 days later that I looked at the resulting files and the logs... ...

Re: Handbrake and DVDs (and LibreDrive?)
Hm... Nevermind. I just tried doing the same thing with a AAA Holywood movie and it failed. The logs are not super useful with Handbrake. I guess encryption is doing its job.

Re: Handbrake and DVDs (and LibreDrive?)
In case I have to clarify something... : I never did that before. I always use MakeMKV, but I tried this specific thing tonight and it just seems to work.
I'll let you know... I guess...

Handbrake and DVDs (and LibreDrive?)
Hi! I hope I'm not starting a duplicate here with this thread... Does Handbrake benefit from MakeMKV being installed and from my BD reader being LibreDrive-unlocked? I'm asking because I'm currently transcoding one title from a DVD and I haven't dumped it beforehand... I'm processing the file quite ...

Re: MakeMKV is skipping VTS tracks
I used Grauhaar's solution (DVDShrink) and managed to extract some files... They were audio tracks with a still picture, so I exported the thing in WAV, then FLAC and cutted the track in pieces as originally intended... I guess the "bad mastering" reason is a good one. Volume One has simil...

I'm also having troubles with extras tonight. I'll try to document, but I'm noob.
