Re: SDFtool Flasher

Just used this tool to flash my encrypted 1.04 BU40N to 1.03 and it worked like a charm. Super fast and easy. Thanks guys! Saved me so much time and headache.
I'm not sure it willl work that way.nsayer wrote: ↑Thu Dec 30, 2021 5:55 amAdmittedly my situation is a bit odd. I am using Windows 11 ARM on an M1 Mac under Parallels.
I haven't yet received my BW-16D1HT yet, but I thought I'd get ready. When I attempt to start the SDF tool, I get an exception:

The resulting UI looks a bit malformed, although it does appear that all of the controls are present.

The GUI may look a bit deformed if you are using a 4K monitor. You can right click the exe and select properties. In the compatibility tab, click "Change high DPI settings" then under "High DPI scaling override" tick the box and select "System (Enhanced)" in the dropbox.

Awesome! I'm glad that someone finally posted the pics of what happens when trying to flash an old drive. Hopefully now people might actually check these things before attempting to flash, although it's good to see that the SDFtool Flasher will stop them if they try!!
@Coopervid, Nah, he's only on BP50NB40 1.03-MK, which isn't UHD capable.
Ok, thanks for the update. You might just have to hold off for a few days or so until we get a resolution for this.1337_Nerd wrote: ↑Thu Jan 06, 2022 12:02 amI followed the steps exactly. I believe step 3 was the issue as the others seemed to change the drive information afterwards. I attempted both of the steps you recommended, flashing the firmware file from the link you sent as well as flashing the firmware and bootloader of the standard BP60NB10 file. Neither of those produced any results. It goes through the process and says it finished successfully, but does not show any changes when I pull up makemkv.
