Re: My poor ancient HD-DVD/BD Combo!
LibreDrive won't gain you anything on a drive that is from 2014 or earlier, really. It's the ones built after 2015 where you might gain some functionality, and then only if it was a drive that supported UHD. My Pioneer drive (2015) had no functionality added to it. It would allow you to play HD DVD...

Re: My poor ancient HD-DVD/BD Combo!
Bump. Any updates on possible firmware mods for these drives? Be awesome to see libredrive, and HD DVD writing capability added to them. Thanks! BTW, there's a brand new LG GGW-H20L dual HD DVD/Blu Ray drive on ebay right now: https://www.ebay.com/itm/LG-Blu-ray-Disc-Rewriter-HD-DVD-ROM-Drive-Model-...

Second! Happy to beta test or send a spare drive if needed to get this going.

Re: My poor ancient HD-DVD/BD Combo!
So we’re talking cross-flashing a BDR-205 with GGW-20L firmware. If it’s far from trivial, then it’s still possible... right? ;) Yes. Hardware is identical. Hey Mike, Just checking to see if there's been any more thought put into these drives? Curious if they can be made into a libre drive as well....

Re: My poor ancient HD-DVD/BD Combo!
I have one of these for HD DVD ripping. They’re pretty decent. I had no clue these are HD-DVD combo drives... This makes more sense to look at then. Yeah, there are a few logos on the front. :lol: F72318B8-9162-448B-AF96-E5595C9F9B8F.jpeg GGW-H20L.png Which tool are you using that shows all the dev...

Re: My poor ancient HD-DVD/BD Combo!
Does anyone know / is there a list of what the drive platforms are, in order of age? I know about 1959, 1939, but wasn't aware there was a RS1013. Did you send the FW dump? RS1013 aka Renesas Indigo3 is a new platform "accidentally" discovered just recently. Was used by Hitachi drives aro...

Re: LG WH14NS40 1.04 >>> ASUS BW-16D1HT 3.10 >>> LG WH16NS60 1.00
Ok..installed the 1.02 firmware on the WH14NS40 and it's working fine. I then installed MKV, VLC, and moved the files over that are needed to play the disc. And it's working! One more question, how do I know if it's in HDR or not? When playing the movie the codec info in VLC says "Planar 4:2:0...

Yes. use vlc with the makemkv integration and disable menus i highly recommend you have an hdr monitor/tv and H.265 decoding support if not its not worth it Thanks! I have an HDR monitor and TV. My Radeon VII should do H.265 in VLC right? Also I've been reading about the Libredrive, is this somethi...
