hi everyone i have a quick question. im going to buy queen rock Montreal 4k uhd blu ray release and i was wondering will i be able to rip that into mkv using my ASUS BW-16D1H-U Pro. any answer will be very appriciated

What year? What does MakeMKV say about it, especially about its UHD capabilities?

The BW-16D1H-U has changed drives over the years. Early ones aren't UHD. Later ones need to have new firmware.

1. Your drive needs to be flashed with appropriate Libre Drive firmware to enable UHD disc ripping.
2. UHD discs are encrypted from factory. The Queen disc will be rippable with MakeMkv once the decryption key is created by MakeMkv. You can aid the process by sending the disc dump file to svq@makemkv.com once you get the disc. The dump file is required by MakeMkv to create the decryption key.

I have a version of this drive that works for ripping 4K BD using MakeMKV and I've never updated the firmware.

How stupid! You should have waited for advice. Maybe the recover option helps but it's complicated and you nedd to follow exactly the steps.

Try this and follow the video with recovery:

viewtopic.php?f=16&t=22896&hilit=SDFToolFlasher

Pick the firmware that you flashed.

Then pick any ASUS / LG firmware for 5,25" drives. WH16NS60 1.02 is recommended.

You got a penalty for NOT READING. DON'T EVER DO THAT AGAIN.

but there is no bin file for ASUS BW-16D1H-U Pro i tried recorvery with everybbin file and it didnt worked

anyone could recommend any bluray 4k drive available on polish amazon that could be flashed correctly with any bin file from All You Need Firmware Pack (MartyMcNuts)?

could be Archgon Premium Aluminum External USB 3.0 UHD 4K Blu-Ray Writer Super Drive for PC and Mac ?
