I'm so sad, I found a program called UNIVERSAL EXTRACTOR that uncompressed the .exe firmware update installation program, so I could skip the VAIO checker, worked like a charm, the firmware upgrade detected my drive, and successfully upgraded it from 1.Va to 1.Vb, but I tested again, all these three...

Well, I got home early and got a chance to test it on my desktop which has no bluray/dvd software installed, I mean nothing, I formatted it a couple weeks ago.. and boom, same error. As a site note, I checked on MakeMKV latest version and I found out that one bluray is AACS v7, another one is AACS v...

Here's what I'm gonna do, once I get home, friday, I will install this USB piece of crap on my desktop, which I haven't even tried... it's very clean, I'll just install MakeMKV and the drive, no other software, then I'll let you guys know

[cross fingers]

Well, I'm gonna focus now on finding a way to upgrade this damn firmware... if you guys find anything useful, don't hesitate, contact me!

The drives certificate is not revocked, it is the players or in this case makemkv. :) you have any blue-rays that play? do you have a blue-ray that says AACS v17 in makemkv ? Hi there Dirio! No I do not have any blu-ray that plays, since I just bought it and acquired my first three titles and NONE ...

No my friend, BACKUP gives the same error. I just googled and found 5 users having the same exact issue with this Sony Optiarc BC-5500S4 drive not being able to play disks (most of them found that it works with AnyDVD loaded). I'm sending all of them a private message to see if they got it fixed or ...

Those three are the only blu-rays I have.. I bought them all at once, and yes, the softwares are all very updated. I really don't think it's a software problem, since I tried FOUR of them: - ArcSoft Theather - Nero 9 Reloaded - WinDVD BD Edition - PowerDVD 10 Ultra There is a new firmware for my dri...

Hi guys, No it's not an .ISO, I'm trying to play three original disks I got from Amazon.com, they are: - Chris Botti at Boston - Tony Bennett - Diana Krall live in Rio I purchased the drive on eBay from a seller in Hong Kong, could that be the issue? Some sort of drive restriction? I'm clueless, the...

Oh, I forgot to mention that I just found out that I'm can't even play these disks without AnyDVD... so weird, my BD-ROM is useless without AnyDVD, I tried with PowerDVD v10 Ultra, Nero 9 Reloaded, WinDVD BD, ArcSoft Theather... jesus, all of them tell me my drive is not able to play these disks (do...

Hello Mike,

Thanks for such good support. I updated to latest 1.5.3 and still get the same error, the AACS version displayed on the main screen is "AACS v7". Is there anything else I can do?

Just tried another title.. this time on Windows, got pretty much the same thing :( Unfortunately these are the only three titles I have, they are all concerts, just got them from Amazon.com.

Hi guys, I've been trying to use MakeMKV on my Macbook (both on Snow Leopard and Windows 7) but all I get are error messages when I use the "open" option.. so I just found out that it only works (for me) when I have AnyDVD loaded.. is this normal? I don't think so, because it even gives me...
