Bought a new LG BP60NB10. Not sure what firmware to use.

Hey guys,
I recently bought the player listed above and discovered the whole firmware blocker thing. I have been trying to follow the instructions listed, including getting the sdf tool and downloading the makemkv firmware folder, but I'm not sure what the best firmware to use is or if there are any other steps to check. Any suggestions?
I just want to rip the 4K's I've had sitting on my shelf to use for film class teaching without needing to log onto streaming services (always better to have a file than rely on school wifi).

Thank you. I'm sorry, I know this sounds amateur. I've never had to deal with a problem like this with Makemkv before.

Hey zgamer, have you followed the directions above? I think to purchase a LG drive and wanted to know if the directions worked for you. TIA.

It's most likely a BP60NB10 with SVC NB12 (check label underneath). Simply flash it with BP60NB10-NB12_1.02-MK firmware from the pack and you will be good to go.

Thanks for the pointer. I just received my NB12 BP60NB10 drive and flashed HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_BP60NB10-NB12-1.02-N000300-212107081556.bin
which you can find in the OP of this thread:

The drive works great with makemkv as a libredrive now. Thanks!

This worked perfectly for me as well today on my BP60NB10 SVC Code NB12
Huge Thanks for all your time and efforts @MartyMcNuts
