Demolition Man has (seemingly) borked my drive

[mva5580]

I've looked around a bit on this and I see when others have had the same issue, I guess I'm just not entirely sure what I can do, if anything, to fix it. My drive had been working fine, I've just recently ripped 4k discs of Signs & Deadpool/Wolverine, but I tried Demolition Man today and now I'm getting the "Can't read AACS VID from disc - most likely current AACS host certificate is revoked by your drive" error. Is there anything I can do? Thanks.

We used to have to wait for a new version of MakeMKV to come out to fix the drive revocation.

Supposedly LibreDrive fixed this but... looks like your Prioneer drive isn't supported by LibreDrive? You might try flashing the firmware on the drive?

I've resolved other discs, I just needed to reset my PC and others are working as normal again.

But Demolition Man, I just can't get it to work. MakeMKV has all kinds of issues reading the disc period and if I use IMGBurn to create an iso, if I try to load that in MakeMKV I get the volume key unknown error. I've downloaded the most recent KEYDB, doesn't help any.

I had this exact same issue with the Arrow 4K UHD release of Demolition Man. I thought it was a bad disc at first, so I got a replacement. Same issue with the second disc, even after thorough cleaning with rubbing alcohol.

Lots of read errors to the point I get this:

The source file '/BDMV/STREAM/00506.m2ts' is corrupt or invalid at offset 0-6144, attempting to work around

...(these repeat a lot)
Too many AV synchronization issues in file '/BDMV/STREAM/00506.m2ts' (title #-) , future messages will be printed only to log file

This one stands out to me as a bit suspicious, given both pristine discs exhibit this behavior:

Error 'Scsi error - MEDIUM ERROR:POSITIONING ERROR DETECTED BY READ OF MEDIUM' occurred while reading '/BDMV/STREAM/00508.m2ts' at offset '0'

Attempting to retry I get realllly long decrypt times that seem to go on forever. I end up ejecting the disc and unplugging the drive.

I'm having a similar issue with this disc. Slight difference in that my Pioneer BDR-XS07UHD will eject it every time I put the disc in the drive. This happens a bit with this drive to me and I can usually brute force it until the disc stays in. However, I'm on my second copy of this disc and the drive ejects it every single time. I've tried connecting the drive to a different machine that doesn't even have MakeMKV installed but the disc still gets spit out after a few seconds of no audible activity.
