I'm a long time user of MakeMKV and have been lurking on here for years, but just created an account, so I'm unable to PM. Would it be possible to get the flasher for the 212V? I just purchased one on Amazon when the news was posted about all Pioneer drives soon being able to be flashed, so I figured it'd be worth the risk if I got one with a weird firmware version.

Anyway, I posted my details on that thread, here:

My LG is fading so I'm hoping this will be able to handle UHD discs it was unable to rip—I lost my 4K collection when migrating to a new NAS, so I'm having to re-rip everything.

Thanks!
