Re: Verbatim 43888 / BU40N 1.05 - UHD “host cert revoked” - Windows 11 rollback to 1.03?

@Billycar11: Mhh... it seems I did ask the wrong question or I did not understand your answer...

Does the firmware 1.00 or 1.03 MK prevent updating the host revocation list of the drive when inserting Blu-ray or UHD Blu-ray? Yes it does or no it doesn't?

Thank's!

Re: Verbatim 43888 / BU40N 1.05 - UHD “host cert revoked” - Windows 11 rollback to 1.03?

Got a new BU40N 1.05. This drive is stated to be a real UHD drive. That means that this drive has a host revocation list that is updated via MKB from Blu-ray and UHD Blu-ray inserted in the drive. Does a firmware downgrade to 1.00 or 1.03 MK defeat the host revocation list or does it remain updating...

Media Identification MID of BD-R and BD-RE

I have some troubles with 50GB BD-REs on my (old) Samsung TV Blu-ray Player. Unfortunately there is no firmware update available for this player anymore because Samsung has discontinued these products years ago. E.g., Panasonic, BD-RE 50GB, MID: MEI-T01-001 Verbatim, BD-RE 50GB, MID: VERBAT-IM1-000 ...

Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide Updated 2025

I have got an HP UHD-Drive. Inside is a LG BU40N with firmware S05JH. I think this firmware is adopted to HP.

Is it possible to flash this firmware to 1.03 MK and to 1.00?

Thank you!
