Hello, I'm facing an issue with my external Verbatim (Pioneer BD-RW BDR-UD03) device. Haven't been using it all that much, watched several BD movies, the last use was a few months ago, and now it just says "no disc inserted" (tried audio CDs, data DVDs, BDs, nothing can get read anymore).

Any chance to flash it or do whatever magic to get it to work once again? The unit was never dropped or in any way mechanically damaged that would prevent it from functioning properly. When the disc is inserted, the LED lits up for a second or two and then goes away.

Help will be appreciated, thanks.

Flashing it won't magically make it start working again...

You could start by cleaning the lasers and see if that helps.
