Pioneer BDR-UD03 UHD possibility

Hi Coopervid,

I have a Pioneer BDR-UD03 drive (manufactured December 2015) in a USB 3.0 external housing. I am looking to enable UHD/LibreDrive capability so I can rip/play my 4K Marvel collection on my HTPC.

Could you please provide the instructions and necessary firmware for this drive?
Here is my MakeMKV information:

Most likely a power issue since these enclosures are very power hungry. Try an USB-C port , use the rear USB-C ports of a desktop or a powered USB hub.

Hi Coppervid,
yes, the power was the problem. I ordered a separate power adapter and with it, it works.
Many thanks
