Any chance my very old but robust tank of a BDXL drive might get support?

Thanks for the reply.
But not quite following completely, mine is already on 1.02, not sure which flash version/type to use?

Per my drive model, should I be using > LG slim BU40N -> HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_BU40N-1.03-NM00000-211810241934.bin

Hi guys, I have the Pioneer 209 EBK (209-M) and the current firmware is only 1.34/ID60. It is probably perfect for MakeMKV but I would like to upgrade the drive since it will be used as a burner as well. Is that 1.54 firmware still safe for MakeMKV? (I guess it might be since that firmware should be quite old - 2020?).

I just installed MakeMKV, but this is the info it gives me. I sent the firmware dump to support@makemkv.com. This says December, so does that mean I'm out of luck?
