Re: 4k discs and MakeMKV Win32/Win64/Lin64

Appreciate the response, thanks. The installed distro is Slackware-current from a few months ago. I don't believe "docker" is distributed with that distro. Unless you are talking about something else. I am not familiar with the term, so my brief web search indicates it's software that has ...

WH16NS40 & HLDS BU40N Experience

Let me start by saying thanks to all the effort put into getting the Libredrive firmware working in the various optical drives we use.
