I want to post this in case is it needed, since I saw the post that all Pioneers will eventually be supported I wanted to post my drive information to ensure you have the details in case it will be included for support.

Revision: 1.05
Firmware date: 2023-08-01
Highest AACS version: 68
Firmware version: ID72
Status: Possible, not yet enabled

Hopefully we are able to get this working eventually and I'll stay tuned for updates along the way.

It will just be a matter of flashing your drive using MakeMKV's built in sdftool (or the SDFTool Flasher GUI) when the time comes.

Excuse me, but where can I find all the updated Pioneer models compatible with Libredrive? Or could someone tell me here?

The only Pioneer models that are compatible are those with firmware pre 12/2022. All pioneer drives with firmware post 11/2022 may be able to be flashed for compatibility sometime in the future.

You can find the drive list in the ultimate UHD guide 2025.

Hi everyone, I've got a BDR-XD07U with firmware 1.00 that doesn't seem to want to load UHD discs and is running into more frequent issues with regular blu-rays. I didn't see this firmware on the list of officially supported firmware versions, either. Here's the info panel:
