Techpulse120 BU40N 1.04
Posted: Sat Mar 13, 2021 10:24 pm
Hey guys,
first of, wow and thanks for this amazing forum. Just came across it, a week after I bought my blu-ray burner.
My situation looks as follows:
I got a Techpulse120 with this informations
Full HD blu-rays are no problem to rip. Tho I am not able to watch them or even rip 4K blu-rays (the former is not my number one priority).
I tried to rip the 4K blu-ray on Linux and Windows on two different machines, with the same errors. (Got only this one, so no other 4K disc for comparison)
After my assumption, the firmware of the drive is the problem. (No signs of inssuficent power for the drive, blu-ray "The Matrix" was released 2 years ago and other users reported successful rips, I don't try to rip from an ISO/backup - https://www.makemkv.com/faq/item/11)
Also: viewtopic.php?f=16&t=19634
With the SDFtool I already tried to dump the current firmware of my drive with 'READ Firmware' but only got the user data 'dump_user_HL-DT-ST_BD-RE_BU40N_1.04_212005061142_[SERIALNUMBER].tar'
Last but not least, I'm a bit confused about the encrypted firmwares here:
viewtopic.php?f=16&t=19634
My questions would be, did I miss anything? And if not, can I just flash it with "mk-firmware-pack-20200720 \ MK \ HL-DT-ST\BU40N-N-Main \ HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_BU40N-1.04-NM00500-212005061142.bin" and the SDFtool? Is the 'DE'-firmware (DE_LG_BU40N_1.00.bin) any use to me?
I hope my thoughts are not too confuesd.
In advance I would like to thank you for every bit of advice.

Here Billycar11 suggestsAll of these drives will need to be flashed to unlock UHD Reading/Ripping
...
LG BU40N, UHD Official Internal Slim Sata 9.5mm

Is this also true for the above mentioned 1.04? I didn't found a 'BU40N 1.03MK'-firmwareBU40N on any Firmware directly to > BU40N 1.03MK

I guess this affects my device but couldn't find out where to see the exact installed firmware of my drive (which is why I tried to dump it with the SDFtool, like mentioned above). I only can asume it's something like HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_BU40N-XXXXXXX-212005061142Newer OEM Firmwares and encrypted:
New Encrypted firmware
List of Know Encrypted firmware (so far, any firmware with date in 2020 is encrypted)
...
HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_BU40N-1.04-N000500-212005061142.bin
...
LG 1.04+ / BU40N 1.03 / Asus 3.10+ and similar
...
But there is the, again, above mentioned 'HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_BU40N-1.04-NM00500-212005061142.bin', so I can use this?...and there is no MK version of the same firmware/drive model or higher number...
My questions would be, did I miss anything? And if not, can I just flash it with "mk-firmware-pack-20200720 \ MK \ HL-DT-ST\BU40N-N-Main \ HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_BU40N-1.04-NM00500-212005061142.bin" and the SDFtool? Is the 'DE'-firmware (DE_LG_BU40N_1.00.bin) any use to me?
I hope my thoughts are not too confuesd.
In advance I would like to thank you for every bit of advice.
