BP50NB40 SVC NB50 UHD compatibility
BP50NB40 SVC NB50 UHD compatibility
I have a LG BP50NB40 SVC NB50 manufactured in May 2023 with firmware dated from 2022. Make MKV report MT1959. I have searched the forum and see it’s listed as officialish and flashed the firmware earlier today yet I’m unable to get this drive to read UHD drives. Is this drive in anyway support or no?

Yes follow the guide fully and it will work I'm guessing you didn't flash to bp60
Buy a UHD drive from the guide and how to video maker: https://www.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic ... 20&t=17831

UPDATE - 21/12/2021:
The latest version of the SDFtool Flasher has a checkbox option to flash the boot loader with the main firmware to the drive. This is useful for the newer BP50NB40 with SVC: NB52. It's also possible that other newer models may require this option later on. We will all work it out together as we go!!
For the moment, to flash the BP50NB40 SVC:NB52, using the latest SDFtool Flasher, follw the steps below:
1. Flash the drive to BP50NB40 (NB50) 1.03-MK.
Now for the crossflash:
2. Select the RECOVERY option and in the pop up, select the BP50NB40 (NB50) 1.03-MK firmware that you just flashed.
3. Select the BP60NB10 1.00-MK or BU40N 1.00 firmware in the normal drop box.
4. Click START
