Pioneer XD08 UMB-S Not Working
Posted: Wed Nov 22, 2023 8:39 pm
Hi, so my current UHD drive is a Pioneer XD08 UMB-S. I thought this drive would work, as I've seen people talk about using this drive on the forums before. I tried using it out of the box (it was new, unopened, but purchased through a vendor on ebay) with adding no updates. The problem is, what I thought was an older, pre-2022 drive, turned out to be a December 2022 one.
When I try to read the disc, I get
ILLEGAL REQUEST:CANNOT WRITE MEDIUM - INCOMPATIBLE FORMAT' occurred while issuing SCSI command
repeatedly.
Here's the specs
Manufacturer: PIONEER
Product: BD-RW BDR-XD08U
Revision: 1.02
Serial number:
Firmware date: 2022-12-27
Bus encryption flags: 1B
Highest AACS version: 68
LibreDrive Information
Status: Possible, not yet enabled
Drive platform: Pioneer RS9331
Firmware version: ID05
I am currently using Max OS Sonoma.
Is this problem fixable? Or am I stuck with a drive that won't work for ripping UHD for now? Ripping regular blu-ray discs works just fine. Same with playing DVDs and CDs on playback.
EDIT: I've been viewing forums and it looks like supporting later firmware is in the works, but everyone is kinda in the dark about how long it's going to be before there's a possible update? What would that look like under the scenario when it does become supported through LibreDrive? Is that as simple as--updating MakeMKV, or will it require more than that on my end? (is that still an open question too?)
Thank you for your patience, I am fairly new to this and am not much of a tech person.
