Hello from Italy – need advice on ASUS BW-16D1HT DE+M Extended firmware

Post by MysticHorizon7 »

Hi everyone — my name is Roberto, from Italy.
I’ve been testing the ASUS BW-16D1HT for years, use it for BD-R DL backups, and recently got into modded firmwares.
I’m especially curious about RibShark custom firmware (DE+M Extended).
If anyone has experience with it — or a working link + hash — I’d appreciate advice.
Looking forward to learn and contribute!

Ribshark seems to be something regarding CD Audio ripping. CD audio ripping is outdated. If you still want to do so use EAC.
