WH14NS40-NS50 vs WH14NS40?
are these 2 drives the same?
trying to flash my WH14NS40 drives, but the "All You Need Firmware Pack" only has the "DE_LG_WH14NS40-NS50_1.02.bin" firmware file...is this safe to use on the standard WH14NS40?

Re: My drive going bad?
If the drive can still rip other discs without issue, then it's probably not the drive. And yes, I am one of those who have had nothing but frustration with the GoT UHD box set...I also had to go through 2 sets just to piece together one "complete/working" set where all the discs could be ...

Re: MakeMKV, just BUY it already.....
So I just wanted to weigh in on this subject, since I have personally been on both sides of the "it costs too much" argument. It's all just a matter of perspective, really. When I was making less money and my monthly expenditures were much higher, I also could not quantify spending $60+ on...

Option to permanently disable the "on-the-fly decryption software" warning

Re: Chick Fight: Another Cursed Redbox Exclusive
so, when this title had just been released, I rented it and it was able to be read, no problem. however, I needed to re-encode it using a different codec, and I have gone through 5 (five!) of these steaming piles of doo-doo, and none of them have been readable in any of 8 optical drives that i have ...

Re: Game of Thrones 4K UHD Retail.
I had a TON of problems with ripping this whole series, purchased on Amazon U.S. Probably MORE than 1/2 of the discs initially had read errors, but I was able to clean the discs (sometimes it took more than one cleaning per disc), and eventually got all but 4 of the discs to backup. Did a return on ...
