Crossflashing BDR-X12EBK from 2021?

Post by Hubldidubldi »

Hello,

I was wondering whether it is possible to crossflash a Pioneer BDR-X12EBK that was manufactured in 2021.

In the main thread it says that lately Pioneers can't be crossflashed anymore, but since this is a used one from 2021 would I have a chance that it comes with an earlier firmware that can be crossflashed?

Would it be worth the risk to buy this used?

Thanks for your help!

Thanks you! I don't actually own it yet but I saw one posted locally so I will try to buy it if you say there is a good chance.
