Pioneer BDR-XD08EMB-S Not Ripping Disc

[spaddywaddy]

Hi Everyone,

I haver just purchased this drive Pioneer BDR-XD08EMB-S
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0C2KPKRRR? ... ct_details

When I go to rip my Lord of the Rings Extended UHD's or any disc it saying "Can't read AACS VID from disc - most likely current AACS host certificate is revoked by your drive"

Could anybody help please?

If the drive was manufactured after December 2022, it is likely it has been locked out of doing UHD. Lots of discussion going on about that in topics that have "pioneer" in their subjects.

Thanks for your reply. May I ask if there is a way to get past this?

At present, no. There are people working on it, but nothing heard so far.

Thanks for your help. I will return the Unit and hopefully there will be a solution in the future.

Buy this. It will work with UHD.

I’m wondering if it would work in my M1 MacBook?

In your M1 MacBook or with your MacBook? It will for sure work with it.

Yes, I meant with. Not in the business of squeezing a disc drive in a machine which was designed to not accommodate such a device.
