SDFtool Flasher

It's an option, no need. Better have and do not need than need and do not have.

The WH16NS60 1.02MK is the recommended firmware for your drive. But theoretically, there could be a better firmware in the future.

I just flashed my LG WH16NS40 to DE_LG_WH16NS60_1.02_MK per instructions because the original firmware was encrypted. The instructions say that I can now flash to another firmware if I choose. Why would I want that? What are the benefits of a different firmware? The only version I could see that matches is the DE_LG_WH16NS40-NS50_1.02.

Thanks.

If you need / want compatibility with other rip software you can flash now to that, too. If you want to check burn quality with qpxtools you can also flash to WH16NS58 1.V5. Otherwise you should be all set.

zittrig & Coopervid -- Thanks. It seems to be working just fine now with MakeMKV, so I will stick with the MK version.

Anyone have the tar file to put in the folder so my drive can read 4k disk. Thanks.

I have an archgon MD-8107-U3 and I would like to rip UHD discs. My fireware is on version 1.02. I don’t have the technical experience to understand what I’m doing and I would like some reassurance that I’m not to screw something up. As I understand it, all I need is MakeMKV, the flasher, and the firmware pack. From there, all I need to do is flash the DE_LG_BU40N_1.03_MK.bin firmware, right? Am I missing anything?

Huh??

You have to have a Libredrive enabled drive to be able to read 4k discs. If your drive is not Libredrive enabled, it may be able to be flashed to enable it.

What drive do you have? Can you copy and paste the MakeMKV drive info and Libredrive info sections?
