Pioneer firmware update February 2023

i dont but there was not much of interest up there
it was an s13UBK

Thank you Very much.
it gives me a place to start so I can dig through data sheets until a drive gets here.

That will NOT help the users here who can't solder chips.

Hello. I'm having the same issue with a too current Firmeware version on the Pionner BDR-S13U-X, I have Revision 1.04 from 12-12-2022. I bought the drive from Amazon a few months ago because it was the "best" according to many reviews, but now I'm seeing the huge limitation with UHD 4k movies. Any fix in sight yet? Thank you!

Nah sorry man if you can return it.

I have those with old fw if you want one.
See below

Thank you for replying. I'm hopeful there is a fix at some point. By the time I posted initially, I was past the Amazon return window, so I'm stuck with the drive.

Ooo, exciting... . In theory, this drive can support LibreDrive because its firmware pre-dates December 2022.

Please Do Not Update This Drive's Firmware!

In practice, you're almost certainly going to need to ask Mike to proceed with enabling LibreDrive.

Hi MrPenguin,
