Re: UHD FAQ

It will show up in device manager if it isn't then something is not right, at a guess I would say it's faulty or on its way out. In device manager click on scan for new hardware, but it should automatically pick it up. yeah, it is listed in device manager. I had seen on another section in here that...

Re: UHD FAQ

Have you got any CDs to try load one up and see if it plays ok, just to see if its Windows playing up. You could also try safe mode. I'll have to check that out. Also, I have seen that ASUS is supposed to be under System Devices. Have you noticed if your writer is located in there? It will show up ...

Re: UHD FAQ

Device and Host keys are revoked in a new MKB versions. Once you have a new MKB v83 disc (not a thing....yet) then it'll likely revoke the device key that's been leaked. All current host keys are revoked in MKB v82. But with LibreDrive, we don't care. We only care about device and processing keys I...

It shipped with the MT939 platform which is different from the MT959 platform I've seen elsewhere on the forum.

A 2 hour movie has some 86,400 frames and I think we can honestly live with a few faulty frames but MKV seems to ...
