Re: Does flashing enable WH14NS40 to play UHD/4K discs?

Ah, thanks for researching that!
Is there something I need to do to at least be able to rip regular blu-rays? Do I need to buy certain firmware or a flashing utility, and a MakeMKV license?

Run MakeMKV. What does it say about your drive?

And, if you're not ripping, why do you worry about UHD support?

Does flashing enable WH14NS40 to play UHD/4K discs?

I already have a WH14NS40. I don't really do any ripping at all. I would just rather not plop a Benjamin down on a new drive just to get 4K/UHD support.
