Re: Flashing firmware on a Mac for LibreDrive

This worked and seems to have already made the drive better! Discs that failed multiple times ripped successfully. They seem to rip faster as well. I'll see how we do with UHD then put this software in the buy column. I assume Preferences open up after I buy. /Applications/MakeMKV.app/Contents/MacOS...

Re: Flashing firmware on a Mac for LibreDrive

I hope my last question. Someone mentioned my code should look something like this /Applications/MakeMKV.app/Contents/MacOS/makemkvcon f -d '/IOBDServices/5CDB4FF9' -f /tmp/sdf.bin rawflash enc -i /tmp/HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_WH16NS60-1.02-NM00100-211810291936.bin HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_BH16NS60-1.02-NM00600-2120050...

Re: Flashing firmware on a Mac for LibreDrive

From version 1.03 onwards LG began to encrypt the firmware making it unusable for BD-ROM UHD discs. Version 1.02 was the last usable version without the sleep bug– the most nasty bug encountered in these firmwares. Nothing visibly different from …NS40 to …NS60. I have got two OWC purchases that are...

https://forum.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=19634 The guide here has command line options for Mac. BH and WH doesn't matter. It's just that the one includes software while the other one doesn't (bulk drives). That is the "I read 40 pages here" of the 127(?) pages and 16,000+ ...
