Hi all,
I found this website/forum doing some googling about my USB Pioneer BD-RW Drive.

I have a Pioneer BD-RW BDR-UD03D [ extra character 'D' in product id ] and cant find that much regarding this particular drive, makeMKV only shows limited info about the hardware. Does anyone know if this is compatible/moddable for UHD media.

Thanks, unfortunately the tool doesn't recognize the drive... it's a Verbatim BIAA 43891. Is that the reason? or what could be the reason? Started the tool as admin and tried other ports too.

Did you follow the tutorial???? If so, the enclosure chip is the problem.

I solved the problem by using a Win 10 PC. The drive was then immediately recognized in the flash tool and now it can also read UHD disks! Thank you!

Is it possible to flash BDR-UD03FAL to read UHD? I don't physically have the drive so I cant post MKV info.

So. How should I know. It is likely but get the drive and post the Makemkv info.
